Huge Southern Baptist Church rocked by sexual abuse charges

It was only a matter of time.....

PageOneQ Huge Southern Baptist Church rocked by sexual abuse charges:

A church whose former pastor was president of the Southern Baptist Convention has been rocked by allegations of child abuse, PageOneQ has learned.

Pastor Paul Williams, who directs prayer programs and special projects at the Bellevue Baptist Church outside of Memphis, has been forced to take a leave while a church committee investigates charges that Williams sexually molested a family member 17 years ago. Williams has been at Bellevue for 34 years, reports Agape Press, a news service run by the American Family Association.

In a statement issued by the church and obtained by PageOneQ, the church's personnel committee says that Williams has taken a paid leave of absence in the wake of 'a past, but highly concerning moral failure.'

A highly concerning moral failure? In my book that would be a failure to care for and support the elderly, the poor and disabled. What this guy is accused of is a felony!

There is probably far more of this in the Baptist church than anyone knows about. Add to that, chronic religious abuse and the whole damn convention should be locked up.

I guess It's pretty damn clear that I'm fed up with these people.
