Before I paste in a bunch more links to this news story, here are some of my thoughts about it:
Yet another shining example of why Christian women should not even bother with “being equally yoked,” as some church-going, self professing Christian men, some of whom work as elders or preachers, are perverts who molest people or overstep their bounds.
I am surprised at how many Christians went along with this perverted preacher and for how long. Some of them went to this guy’s church for months or years before working up the courage or disgust to walk out.
Christians are some of the biggest, passive wimps I have ever met.
Many Christians are severely codependent – they routinely take Bible verses about “being meek” and “turning the cheek” and “loving your enemy” to wrongly assume the Bible is teaching them to be doormats and to tolerate evil and idiots – but it’s not teaching you to put up with any of that, or to be a doormat.
What I am trying to say is that if you are a grown man (or woman) attending a church where the pastor tells you to get an abortion, or asked you to drop your drawers to look at your penis, or he asks if you perform oral sex on your wife, or whatever inappropriate action or remark he makes, you should respond in one of several ways to these scenarios:
- 1. Punch him in his disgusting face
- 2. Tell him none of his damn business, and that he is a pervert
- 3. Extend your middle finger to his face and tell him to F*CK OFF
- 4. Stop attending his church the first time such a situation occurs
What is not an option: complying with his disgusting wish. This dude is just some old perverted coot. He has no authority over you, NONE.
Assuming you work at a secular job (not at the same church where the abuse is going down):
Just like your boss at your job has no right to threaten your ass with firing if you don’t sleep with him or show him your nude penis, and just as your boss at your job has no right to ask about your sexual habits, you are under no obligation to go along with bat sh*t insane requests like, “so, tell me, do you have a big penis,” or, “hey, drop your pants and underwear so I can check out your genitals” from your preacher.
Christians of the world, being a “good, biblical Christian” has nothing to do with being a doormat.
Stop allowing people to exploit you.
Never participate in something that makes you feel uncomfortable, such as telling your pastor how big your penis is, or what your sex life is like. Those subjects and ones like them are NONE OF YOUR PREACHER’S BUSINESS, not even in the guise of “men’s accountability” meetings or groups.
Seriously, go out and get a copy of the books,
- “Boundaries” by Christian psychiatrists Cloud and Townsend,
- “No More Christian Nice Guy” by Paul Coughlin,
- “The Disease to Please” by Dr. H. Braiker
-and read them, read those books! If money is an issue, perhaps your local library has copies you can check out.
The first two books will explain to you why being a Christian does NOT MEAN having to take sh-t off other people (God does not expect, command, or demand that you permit yourself to be abused or used by other people), the third is a general book not necessarily written from a “Christian” view but it is invaluable to Christians who are too terrified to say “no” to people and who believe that having limits is selfish, mean, or unbiblical.
Christians: You have a right to say “no” to gross or weird questions or requests, even from your church preacher.
Also: as much as I cannot stand the extreme emphasis most churches put on marriage, natalism, and parenting, which alienates singles, widowers, and the infertile – I do NOT condone the extreme opposite: a church where the pastor and/or other members pressure people to NOT marry or NOT have children.
Whether you marry or not or have a kid or not is YOUR CHOICE, and your church should shut their pie holes about it.
The Bible defends all situations: having a kid, not having a kid (whether by choice or by circumstance); being single OR being married.
There is nothing sinful or shameful about getting married OR being single, or with having children or NOT having children.

Former members of Grace Cathedral in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio have accused church leader and televangelist Ernest Angley of demanding they have abortions or vasectomies, and that he would both engage in and turn a blind eye to sexual abuse in the church.
