One of the issues these cases highlight is that it's not just the sick individual clergy who abused children but the church also tried to cover up the abuse.

Man arrested while citing Bible verse in protest of Pride event, then video evidence sinks case

Charges were dropped against a self-professing Christian "street preacher" who was arrested while citing the Bible in protest of an LGBTQ Pride event in Reading, Pennsylvania, authorities said.

Damon Atkins was arrested June 6 for "disorderly conduct, engaged in fighting," but the charges were dropped after an official review of video evidence, the Berks County District Attorney's Office said in a press release.

"The charges were withdrawn after the District Attorney’s Office reviewed the videos of the incident along with applicable case law," the statement said.

Berks County Commissioner Christian Leinbach had told the Lancaster Patriot that he believed the arrest of Atkins was "unlawful" and "could open the City of Reading and their police department to legal action."

That is America today. It's a crime to NOT support sodomy and sodomites.

Told my wife and family about 12 years ago that within 25 years religious freedoms will be outlawed in the US.  Now it will primarily if not completely focus on silencing Christianity but no shock there.  We're steadily arriving at that point.

We are absolutely headed towards Biblical views on things like homosexuality and marriage being criminalized.
