Would students Liberty University face consequences for the same behavior?

I also dread whatever ties the MSM is going to be making to POTUS on all of this.

Another one bites the dust. Why is it always the folks who are so concerned about the sexual behavior of others who have these kinds of skeletons in their closets?

Well. At least he did retain a small amount of integrity. We’ll see if his wife has any.

Looks like it. From the Student Code of Conduct: "Sexual relations outside of a biblically-ordained marriage between a natural-born man and a natural-born woman are not permissible at Liberty University."

I’m guessing that man, wife and pool boy fall somewhat outside of that standard.

The more loudly they proclaim their morals, the more careful you need to be not to drop the soap.

Just like the more a person talks about their honesty and integrity, the tighter you need to hold on to your wallet.

I hate dirtbags who tell other people how they should live their lives while violating their own ethics, I have more respect for an out and out drag queen or violent thug who at least admits what they are than someone quoting the Bible at me while being a pervert in private.

Very sad. My Dad was a small church pastor most of my life. He quoted this saying:

“Sin will take you places you didn’t intend to go, keep you there longer than you intended to stay, and cost you more than you were willing to pay.

I hate to see people fall who have publicly been leaders in the church. Makes me doubt his sincerity in taking over for his father. The chaff is being blown away in the wind. We will end up being stronger because this happened.

Could you please tell that to the other Protestants who make priest sex comments?

He quit didn’t he instead of fighting tooth and nail to hang on like some others? At least he hasn’t totally lost his sense of shame.

I agree with you. We have alot of weak leadership in the church and related organizations. It’s time for strong, faithful leadership to rise up.

The holier they claim to be the more perverse they actually are.
