Atlanta preacher accused of sexual misconduct with young men

Man, if true, this story has everything: sex, religion, homosexuality, hypocrisy, money...I wonder if we can even approach the Jimmy Swaggart pinnacle of "Oooops. Remember all that stuff I was preaching over these last few years? Yeah, well, uh, you see..."

On the other hand, if we rewrote the story in a positive light:

Young men receive free housing, college tuition, cars, money, clothes, jewelry, international trips, access to celebrities. and grilled cheese sammiches.

I guess the moral to this story is that its always better to pull out...


...of a bad situation.
