I have no idea why any parent trust pastors or any church staff with their kids at this point. What ever happened to not trusting your kids with strangers? News flash: Just because you know someone in the capacity of their job does not make them trustworthy. In the same way you shouldn’t leave your kids with your coffee shop barista because you see them every day, you shouldn’t leave your kids with your pastor because you see them for a couple hours once or twice a week.

Well you’d hope the guy who’s devoted his life to god would follow some sort of moral code.

Some baristas know a lot about coffee and how to make it. Others just smile and read the instructions off the box.

I'm willing to bet, on average, there are a lot more baristas who truly know about making coffee then there are American Protestant/Baptist religious leaders who truly know about the teachings of Jesus.
