Reports are it’s bigger than the Catholic church’s sex abuse scandal.

”"Our investigation revealed that, for many years, a few senior EC leaders, along with outside counsel, largely controlled the EC's response to these reports of abuse ... and were singularly focused on avoiding liability for the SBC," the report said.”
“"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 added.”
”The report asserts that an Executive Committee staffer maintained a list of Baptist ministers accused of abuse, but there is no indication anyone "took any action to ensure that the accused ministers were no longer in positions of power at SBC churches."”
“The most recent list includes the names of hundreds of abusers thought to be affiliated at some point with the SBC. Survivors and advocates have long called for a public database of abusers.”
Not just one or two abusers ,but 100s.,
from same denomination . That is so sickening .
I always hear that in many central American countries ,crime is not punished. I wonder if these people ," man of God " will be punished for their sins ?

No wonder Southren Baptists are overwhelmingly Trumpist. They're cut from the same cloth.
