In reply to the discussion: Should we start a pool to guess how long before the new speaker is burned by some sex scandal? [View all]Irish_Dem
(82,575 posts)22. I remember some studies showing that religious fanatics commit more serious sexual crimes.
This is because they are so dogmatic, and have such poor judgement, that for example if they just
lust in their heart they believe they are going to hell.
So they figure they may as well actually commit a sexual crime. The punishment is the same.
So yes I agree, we are looking at a shady past for Johnson.
Starting in college because that is when he was very vocal and almost hysterical condemning
other people's sexual acts.
I suspect it means that he was not able to control himself sexually, so he had to try to control
everyone else.
