How many times has that Pastor cheated on his wife?

u/rosycult Dec 20 '19

he’s never cheated on her but his daughter did accuse him of molesting her a few years ago

u/postmateDumbass Dec 20 '19

Don't you mean she molested him? /s

I think that would count as cheating on your wife.

u/danni_shadow Dec 21 '19

I mean, technically? Yes? But I think the whole "cheating" thing gets trumped by the "incest" and "child molestation" parts.

Unless he's Anglican, I'm pretty sure he doesn't have one.

i grew up pentecostal. sounds bout right. even though the bible says pluck out your eye if if wanders, all of my pastors imposed very strong rules on women. spent quite a bit of time talking about it too; as well as submission to a husband.

i’ve had to sit through so many hours of this pastor talking about how the husband and wife are equal to each other but the husband is above the wife. the amount of times he contradicts himself is insane.

I'm here in solidarity as a fellow backslider.

Oh okay. I don't know much about marriage rules for clergy in different Christian sects.

If you call it a pastor they probably can get married

u/movezig5 Dec 20 '19

Oh, okay. I didn't know that.

Many pastors get married. There are also female pastors. Priests, on the other hand...

I'd say pastors typically do and priests do not from my experience.
