and absolute power corrupts, absolutely.
Police have arrested David Zandstra, an 83-year-old former pastor, on murder charges nearly 50 years after he allegedly abducted and killed 8-year-old Gretchen Harrington in Pennsylvania, officials said Monday, July 24th.
Every week you go to church/temple/kingdomHall and are spoon fed the same sticky-sweet story about Jehovah and the after life. These pastors/elders/rabbis are revered as holy and that fact goes to the head of a great percentage. Many believe that God gave them permission to violate the laws they preach from the pulpit.
In my town, a Catholic priest was convicted of being a pedophile and given a death sentence. Well, the actual sentence was ten years, but he was murdered while in jail. The man who murdered him was already serving a life sentence in a state that does not have a death penalty, so, in effect, the murderer could not be punished further.
The pedophile, being a Catholic priest, put his faith in Jesus. Does this give him a ticket to heaven?
