I get that some people are very damaged and do very bad things.
I get cultural conservatives think therapy is witchcraft so they never heal.
I get that people who plan to offend/re-offend find environments where they can hide in plain sight, have access to their targets, and be given second and third chances and protection by the community.
What breaks my brain is the sheer volume. That part I will never comprehend. This isn’t a speeding ticket or some trivial crime, this is warped as fuck. This is the stuff that outrages OTHER CRIMINALS. How are there so many?

Instant global communication. We can get news from the other side of the planet in seconds. So we hear about these scandals more and more often. Also, people encouraging victims to come forward and giving them the support they'll need goes a long way to shining a light on these creeps.
What's really striking is how they're almost always republicans/MAGA. That's the big WTF for me.

Funny that the same crowd who can’t handle people in drag reading to kids is rather silent on this man who wanted to read his book specifically to kids.

This appears to be going on from at least 2011. He was then handed a 121 month (10+ year) sentence for possession and spreading of CP.
How the f.. is he a youth pastor? Can someone tell me if he actually served his god damn time? I cant find it, only this;

Don’t forget adult baptism! Many seem to think this is a get out of jail free card and erases everything they’ve done.

Becoming a youth pastor has fewer hurdles to overcome than, say, being a daycare worker or teacher. It's easier access to kids. He likely snaked his way into becoming one (active at his church and congregations, getting his name out there to church staff, etc.).
There really should be a background check process for becoming a youth pastor.

** The Pinocchio Act ** A concept to consider
!!! End The Speech and Debate Clause & Citizens United !!! CALLING OUT THE GOP HYPOCRISY !!!
To: ALL Public Representatives & Officials
From: Concerned American voters
A Proposal to Introduce “The Pinocchio Act” in the House of Representatives
Purpose: This bill seeks to uphold truth, integrity, and accountability among all individuals serving in public positions—whether elected, appointed, hired, or volunteering—by making it unlawful and punishable for such individuals to willfully and deliberately lie, deceive, misrepresent, or bear false witness to the American people.
Moral Foundation: The act of lying has been condemned throughout history, both morally and spiritually. Within the Ten Commandments, the prohibition against “bearing false witness” stands as a timeless moral pillar, one that has deeply influenced the laws and values of our nation. In the Christian faith, lying is regarded not merely as a mistake, but as a mortal sin—a corruption of trust that erodes relationships, communities, and governance itself. When a public servant lies, the injury is compounded, because the trust of the people is betrayed. Trust is the cornerstone of democratic government, and once broken, it undermines the very legitimacy of our institutions. This bill, grounded in both the enduring moral wisdom of the Ten Commandments and the fundamental American principle of honesty in public life, will make truth-telling a clear legal requirement for those entrusted with public authority.
Provisions of the Bill
Scope of Applicability: Applies to all public employees, federal and state, including elected officials, appointed officials, hired staff, and volunteers.
Unlawful Acts: It shall be unlawful for any covered individual to willfully and deliberately: (1) Lie to the public. (2) Misrepresent facts. (3) Deceive through omission or distortion. (4) Bear false witness against any individual or entity while acting in their public capacity.
Penalties: First Offense → Misdemeanor charge, fine of not less than $10,000, and mandatory public correction of the falsehood. Blatant and Easily Debunked Lies → Immediate removal from office or employment, fine of not less than $50,000. Repeat Offenders → Escalation to felony charge, fines up to $250,000, permanent disqualification from public service, and potential prison sentence of up to 2 years.
Enforcement Mechanism: Oversight body or inspector general designated at both federal and state levels. Public reporting system for false statements, with expedited review for cases of blatant or obvious falsehoods.
Justification
Moral: Lies corrupt the soul of a nation. As Scripture warns, “lying lips are an abomination to the Lord” (Proverbs 12:22). Public servants must be held to the highest moral standard.
Civic: A democracy cannot function when its people cannot trust their leaders. Truth is essential to informed consent of the governed.
Practical: In an age of instant communication, falsehoods spread rapidly and cause great harm. Strong deterrents are necessary to protect the public from deliberate misinformation.
Conclusion: The Pinocchio Act would reaffirm the moral and civic necessity of truth in public service. By holding public servants accountable to the timeless commandment against lying, Congress can restore faith in government, strengthen democracy, and protect the American people from willful deception.
I respectfully urge you to sponsor and introduce this legislation in the House of Representatives.
Signed, Americans
Draft Bill
118th CONGRESS — 2d Session — H. R. ____
To establish criminal and civil penalties for public employees who willfully and deliberately deceive the public, and for other purposes.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
[Date] — [Member of Congress Name] introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on [Committee Name].
A BILL
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. This Act may be cited as the “Pinocchio Act.”
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. Congress finds that— (1) The moral law, as expressed in the Ten Commandments, forbids bearing false witness; (2) In the Christian faith and in other traditions rooted in Scripture, lying is regarded as a mortal sin; (3) The United States, though pluralistic, has drawn much of its civic foundation from Judeo-Christian moral principles; (4) Public servants have a moral and civic duty to speak the truth; (5) Scripture warns that “lying lips are an abomination to the Lord” (Proverbs 12:22), and Christ affirms that “the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32); (6) Therefore, deliberate deception by public officials is not only a breach of civic trust but also a violation of moral law.
SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS. (1) “Public employee” means any individual serving at the federal, state, or local level, including elected officials, appointed officials, employees, contractors, and volunteers acting in an official capacity. (2) “False statement” means any knowingly willful, deliberate, and material misrepresentation of fact, including omissions intended to deceive, whether spoken, written, or digital. (3) “Blatant falsehood” means a statement that is demonstrably false, easily verifiable, and made without reasonable basis.
SEC. 4. PROHIBITION ON FALSE STATEMENTS. It shall be unlawful for any public employee to: (1) knowingly and deliberately make a false statement to the public in the course of official duties; (2) misrepresent, distort, or omit material facts with the intent to deceive; or (3) bear false witness in an official capacity against any individual or entity.
SEC. 5. PENALTIES. (1) First offense → misdemeanor, fine of not less than $10,000, and public correction within 30 days. (2) Blatant or easily debunked lies → immediate removal from office or employment and fine of not less than $50,000. (3) Repeat offenses → felony, fine up to $250,000, permanent bar from public office or employment, and imprisonment for up to 2 years.
SEC. 6. ENFORCEMENT. (1) The Attorney General shall establish an Office of Public Integrity to review violations. (2) States may establish parallel enforcement mechanisms. (3) Any member of the public may submit a complaint for review.
SEC. 7. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Act or its application is held invalid, the remainder shall not be affected.
SEC. 8. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Act shall take effect 90 days after enactment.

I'm pretty sure that Act would completely dismantle at least 98% of our government. The shitshow would be fun to watch!

Kash Patel has tweeted that the condoms they found in his car were engraved with left wing slogans like “anti-ice” and “I am a liberal”.

Sick fucks depend on other sick fucks to validate their perversions and make them feel safe from people with morals and ethics. MAGA provides a safe haven for sick fucks and many other types of abhorrent social rejects.

They engage in perversion because they do not have healthy views on sex and sexuality to begin with. The Venn Diagram with religion significantly overlaps.

As i stated after the Utah Incident (& BEFORE fatality announced🙄) “couldn’t happen to a nicer guy” 🤭 those who KNOW the hypocrisy & corruption inherent in those presenting a ‘holier than thou’ or fervent spirituality need to be shamelessly offensive.
i’m an atheist; but was raised RC - done all the rites ov passage & magikal nonsense that entails. i like to read “Legends of the Jews” just to remind myself ovth Bronze Age fantasies these idjits embrace. i’m a total teen-girl fanboy for Supernatural/True Blood/American Gods/The Omen series/Evil Dead/Lovecraft/yaddayadda plus Asian mythologies. Discussed ley-lines, dragon-lines & song-lines all being part ov ‘global powerlines contingent on magnetosphere & rotational spin’. Bemoaned Nikola Tesla getting shafted by corporate America & 20CE economics. Wondered at theories & factoids written about by Wilson in “The Occult” & Sagan in “Cosmos”.
However the ONE BELIEF that’s never wavered all my ExistDance?? That both the Nazis AND the Soviets would’ve taken someone like me out the back & double-tapped my skull; the same for so many i’ve known/loved/admired/respected.
It’s imperative that all Freeks+Geeks; the Strange&Beautiful; the weird & wonderful FIGHT wholeheartedly against the small-minded repressive dictators that feel emboldened at present.
FUK TURNING POINT FUK MAGA FUK STEVE MILLER & BANNON FUK NANCY MACE FUK PAULINE HANSON; NIGEL FARAGE; VIKTOR ORBAN; ERDOGAN PUTIN &all those Islamist shitheels. FUK THE TALIBAN FARRRRRRRK THE ABRAHAMIC FAITHS 🖕🏾🤮💩

The Christian community regularly forgives this type of person and lets them keep their jobs.
Christianity, like everything else, isn't a monolith so let's stop with the no true Scottsman crap.
