Hypocrisy comes home to roost. Wife of "Bishop" Eddie Long files for divorce.
He of the man-diddling settlement of late.

Especially juicy in light of the fact that he and that vile King daughter marched for 'marriage sanctity' a few years back in GA.

1. which man-diddling settlement?
I normally keep track of shit like that, but that one escaped my ire and attention.
By the way, if you subscribe to the FFRF, they have a great list of priests, pastors, ministers, and nuns who sexually abuse kids. It takes two full newspaper sheets each issue.

10. heh, thanks. Conservative Family Values, indeed.
Nothing wrong with consensual sex between adults, but when some creep uses the pulpit to say one thing, and does another in private, fuck them.

2. Maybe she can talk to Cain's wife and help her not wait so long
To take back control of her life and stop being emotionally abused by that serial cheater.

4. Another proof of the anti equality hypocrites o' the faith world.
Let us not forget that this man was put in his position by his thousands of idiot congregants, who wailed and railed against gay people while naming this creep 'Bishop'. They gave him that grand title, they saw him as a saint even as they hounded down their neighbors and slandered them in their bigoted tradition. It takes a village to make an Eddie Long. A hate filled village that places their prejudice on an alter and calls it God.

6. Amen, Blue. I'm sure they are still backing him and packing the pews on Sundays.
I'm sure there are some good people there but still sheeple.

5. Any time a self-appointed member of the Morality Police starts spouting.
It's a given that they are guilty of the very thing they are railing against.

11. Shortest divorce filing ever?
http://www.ajc.com/news/dekalb/bishop-eddie-longs-wife-1248978.html

Hours after announcing she had filed for divorce from megachurch pastor Bishop Eddie Long, his wife, Vanessa, issued a statement Friday saying she had withdrawn her petition.

Vanessa Long had issued a statement early Friday morning saying that she had filed for divorce Thursday from Long, the pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church.

By early afternoon, she had a change of heart.
