Pastor Had Sex With daughters
http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/pastor-had-sex-with-daughters/2007/08/30/1188067266454.html

A fundamentalist church pastor had sex with two of his teenage daughters to educate them on how to be good wives, a South Australian court has heard.

The 54-year-old man, who cannot be named, was today sentenced in the SA District Court to eight and a half years jail after pleading guilty to seven counts each of incest and unlawful sexual intercourse.

The court heard that the man had sex with his daughters for nearly a decade from 1991 when they were aged 13 and 15 at the family property.

The sex took place at various locations including in a shearer's shed, a paddock, on the back of a ute and, on one occasion, at the girls' grandparents house.

The man told the court the sex was not about fulfilling his desires but about teaching his daughters how to behave for their husbands when they eventually married, as dictated in scripture.

15. I'd like to suggest counseling him with a large
hedge clipper.

Then jail time.

3. That's just shocking to hear this involves a right wing
fundamentalist Christian conservative extremist.

Why are Republican so desperate to get laid that they go after children?

I understand that they're unattractive and extremely boring in bed, but it's still disgusting.

7. Who is he kidding?
Scripture also tells them to be virgins when they get married, so he knows he's lying.

He is a rapist and a child molester and he needs to be put under the jail.

Where he's going, they'll remember... they're usually not that kind to people who do stuff to kids.

9. Men, men, men
:banghead:
when are they going to stop blaming it on their religion. Oh, yeah, right, the bible tells us that men can do anything they want with women and children because they are chattel.

12. Let's not get to broad with the term of "men", some of us still
open doors for ladies, and hold motherhood in the highest form, and cherish our children and grandkids, even though it sometimes isn't PC to open doors for ladies and to show our respect.

10. Which translation of the Bible is he using?
The Perverts version? Even in the case of Lot, there was condemnation of the behavior of his daughters.

14. perhaps a better one would have been comparing him to the fact
that lot not only tried to hand over his daughters to a gang of rapists but then he raped them and blamed them for the rape.

21. I wonder if he used birth control?
You can go to hell for that, you know...

:eyes:

I have an acquaintance who's father told her the exact same thing -- that he was teaching her how to behave for her husband.

She's in her forties now and she's never had a stable relationship, much less a husband.

Authoritarian religions are very attractive to certain sorts of sociopaths.

But :wtf: :

"Judge Lovell gave full credit for the man's guilty pleas, saying he was genuinely remorseful and had a good chance of rehabilitation as his wife and the church remained supportive."

The man's wife must be pretty messed up too. You gotta wonder why she doesn't take him to the shearer's shed and relieve him of the dangly parts he assaulted their daughters with.
