1. Figures

John Langworthy, a former music minister at Morrison Heights Baptist Church in Clinton, resigned from the church in 2011 after admitting that he sexually abused young boys when he worked at two Mississippi Baptist churches in the 1980s and then in a Texas Baptist church.

Gunn, who has served in leadership roles at Morrison Heights, was the church’s attorney as Langworthy’s case played out in the courts and in the public sphere. The speaker was unable to be reached for comment regarding this article.

12. that's what Baptists do

run around accusing and judging everybody else while covering up far worse sins of their own. Take note of the religion of most of the right wingers- Baptist.

4. Other greats have helped along the way

Was reading a book called "Final Analysis" by Jeffrey Masson, who was a curator of Freud's archives. He eventually took his knowledge public because what he found was that Freud's Theories were a coverup of child abuse for elites of the day. The discovery and release of the truth rocked the psychoanalysis world and the psychology realm as well.

14. We call that the Baptist Railroad

I used to belong to a Baptist church, and we had many colorful descriptions for the way that policy was created by our old white male leadership.

20. The MS Republican House Sick Fuck

21. Not only are none of *us* surprised, I don't believe any of the GrOPers are surprised.

They either know, or expected, that sort of behavior. They all know. Not necessarily specifics, but the values guiding the actions are shared, so the actions are inevitable. Any surprise feigned is some crocodile tear bullshit.
