People say that being Christian is always the answer if you're white and a pedo.

I hear they're using the death penalty to kill more and more Americans 
every day.  

A lot of people say that being Christian is always the answer if you're 
white and a pedo.

Did you know that the USA is the only country in the world with a rapist 
and suspected pedo on the Epstein list as leader!!



Southern Baptist Convention sex abuse list includes at least 30 from N.C.
By Charles Duncan North Carolina
 

A list of sex abuse cases involving people connected to Southern Baptist 
churches includes at least 30 names from North Carolina.

The list has numerous redactions, so there could be more preachers, 
teachers and volunteers from North Carolina on the list released last week. 
The Southern Baptist Convention released the list following a damning 
investigation by the Houston Chronicle.

The list includes more than 700 details on people associated with the 
church accused or convicted of sex crimes. The crimes include molesting 
children, rape and soliciting prostitutes.

“This list is being made public for the first time as an initial, but 
important, step towards addressing the scourge of sexual abuse and 
implementing reform,” Southern Baptist Convention CEO Willie McLaurin and 
executive committee chair Rolland Slade said in a joint statement.

“Each entry in this list reminds us of the devastation and destruction 
brought about by sexual abuse. Our prayer is that the survivors of these 
heinous acts find hope and healing, and that churches will utilize this 
list proactively to protect and care for the most vulnerable among us,” 
they said. 

An investigation into abuse allegations by Guidepost Solutions criticized 
the Southern Baptist Convention's Executive Committee. Abuse survivors, the 
report said, were “met, time and time again, with resistance, stonewalling, 
and even outright hostility from some within the EC.” Church leaders were 
more concerned about avoiding legal liability, according to the report.

“In service of this goal, survivors and others who reported abuse were 
ignored, disbelieved, or met with the constant refrain that the SBC could 
take no action due to its polity regarding church autonomy – even if it 
meant that convicted molesters continued in ministry with no notice or 
warning to their current church or congregation,” the report said.

The company that compiled the report for the Southern Baptist Convention 
set up a hotline for survivors to report abuse and get help: 202-864-5578 
or [email protected].

Here’s the list and details on each person with North Carolina connections,
