I just picture a poor girl or boy who has gone through the horrors of sexual abuse being counseled by these terrible people. People who have been abused sexually have gone through so much. People who have been abused need real counseling. They are scared, confused, anger etc. I don't think they deserve to be "counseled" by these people.

What is really sad is that they will probably get a chance to counsel some victims of abuse through their church. I have nothing against religion. I go to a liberal church sometimes.
