Full disclosure: I haven’t really listened to this yet. But I’m wondering… Can Pastors really be trusted again in our society? Certainly they can and should be trusted by Christians… But society as a whole seems destined to be more and more suspicious of Christians and Christian leaders.
Fine I’ll remove the cursing. The point still stands though. People aren’t going to convert to religion if you people insist on not punishing people who molest children. Get your house in order and people will flock to you.
I’m in agreement with some of that. For sure, pastors and leaders who have abused children and others are a scourge on the church and an affront to everything that Jesus taught. And the appropriate response should be outrage and justice, not protection and trying to keep things quiet.
But even if that is improved greatly, I don’t think western society would flock to Christianity.
I’d be happy to be wrong though.
