Are you suggesting that Mark Driscoll has been involved in sexual improprieties? As far as I am aware, the allegations against him have to do with financial irregularities and an authoritarian management style. Is there more that I’m not aware of? Truthfully, I have not followed his situation that closely but I have heard a few of his sermons and lectures and have generally liked what I have heard. I have a certain admiration for anyone who upsets some of the tight-shoed, “truly-reformed” Presbyterian-types.

“Are you suggesting that Mark Driscoll has been involved in sexual improprieties?”

Forgive me, no. I was responding to (Catholic) Salvation’s quip about the celibate (priests) vis a vis the married (Protestant) Driscoll.

Driscoll is known for his frank talk about sexuality, and his admitted enjoyment of it within marriage. This, per the quip, makes him the furthest thing from celibacy (in the Catholics sense of unmarried priests).

Driscoll’s not my problem, but he gets a lot of press.
