BTW, what these sickos were doing is very similar. They posed as youth pastors in order to gain access to kids. This is why there are so many instances of adults in roles that grant them access to kids later being found to be pedos. Namely, it's because pedos will do whatever it takes to feed their sick desires. And that includes doing things like posing as a transsexual or posing as a youth pastor.


No...they didn't pose as youth pastors...they WERE youth pastors. Unless your argument is going to be of the new true Scotsman variety, they weren't pretending to be youth pastors any more so than Catholic Priest were pretending to be priests.

The most surprising thing is that it was a female prostitute.

Moments like this make me wish "To Catch A Predator" was still on TV.


That show was pure comedy gold



The "in game threads" on Sunday nights when they would show reruns were pretty good also...

Looks pretty cool. Seems like it would be a good experience if it was still well run. Kids probably make a ton of friends there.





You are making me feel a little bitter that I spent my summers mowing lawns for money and sneaking into the neighbor's pool.

isn't that entrapment if they didn't solicit?


No. For it to be entrapment the police must actually cause you to do a crime that you otherwise would not have done. For example, if an LEO enlists your help in subduing an underage prostitute who he takes to his basement at home instead of to jail. You would not be an accessory to kidnapping, you were entrapped.

But cops can lie and cheat all they want to manipulate you into thinking it's safe to commit a crime you have every intention of committing. They can post an online ad for drugs and tell you "Noooo, I'm not a cop at all! Those damn pigs will never hear about this!" just before clapping the cuffs on you. That's as legal as going to church on Sunday.

Jesus would refer to these guys as "wolves in sheep's clothing"

Most baptists just look at porn and go to strip clubs to deal with their repressed sexuality, these guys went all in.

I know it's hard not to judge but let me give you some facts.



1. Just because you go to Church does not mean you are going to Heaven and it does not mean you are a Christian.

2. Just because you are a preacher/priest does not mean you are going to Heaven either.

3. Everybody sins. Nobody is free from sin. Maybe some churchgoers are at Church for help for their sins. Just because you walk through the doors of a church does not mean you sprout angel wings and are perfect and sinless.

4. Satan's number one targets are the leaders of churches, church members, and all other followers of Christ . He clearly won this battle. Satan does not have to waste his time with some other people because he has already won the battle with those individuals.



Que the atheist response team to attack what I just said especially number 4.

Two Tennessee pastors were busted in an undercover sting operation for seeking sex with an underage girl through an online advertisement. Pastors Jason Kennedy, 46, and Zubin Parakh, 32, were among 32 men and women arrested by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation in an operation targeting human trafficking and prostitution


Two pastors, while despicable, were still part of a much bigger bust.

Newsflash - there are sick people in this world and they're in many walks of life. I was raised Catholic, and even though I don't practice anymore, I think the sensational headlines are a bit much with these kind of stories. People enjoy calling out the hypocrisy, and I get it, but the bigger problem gets lost in translation.

For instance, the Daily Mail's article conveniently leaves out this pretty significant quote from the original article:

quote:

"This crime is grossly protected by stereotypes that tell us it happens to certain people and certain places. Many of us like to believe that those people and those places are not here in Knoxville, Tennessee," said Kate Trudell with the Community Coalition against Human Trafficking. "This is happening right here. It's happening behind the curtain and behind closed doors. The demand comes from every single sector in our community."

If your point is that "human" is redundant, I'm sure human is used to distinguish between drug trafficking.
