Hey Dan, I find this regular feature of yours troubling, not because of the snarky social commentary, but because there's a difference with being charged with a crime and being guilty of that crime.

ER,that would be Gainesville GA not FL.
3
Again, Gainesville GA, not FLA
4
A homosexual man infiltrates a church, wins the confidence of members and betrays that trust by abusing a young man.
What lesson are we to learn from this?

This Gainesville is in Georgia.
5
It is a neat trick when the two homosexual men exploit the trust that exists within church families and then Queer, Incorporated trumpets the cases as examples of corruption in religion.
6
If homosexuals were allowed to be Boy Scout leaders this kind of thing would never happen.

@4: DUMB ASS.
You are one. Pedophiles and homosexuals are two different groups. Sure, there may be some overlap, but you are just a mo-ron.
8
Churches don't need to do background checks, because....

Jesus makes you better than other people!

If you say you love Jesus, how you possibly be a monster?

@2-4

You think they would get it right by now-
this is the third time this same guy has been listed and everytime the state is wrong...
10
These guys have sex with 14-17 year old young men but they self identify as heterosexual so that must be what they are.
Right, Rob?
Because, while they may be perverted deviants they aren't STUPID and they know if they self identify as homosexual they won't get within a hundred yards of the church's teenage boys.
So, they obviously are heterosexuals.
Right, Rob?
11
Two for two?
I'm new here.
really.
Are all the guys featured on the "Youth Pastor Watch" always homosexuals?
12
The kid from Tennessee was 17 at the time of the alleged incidents.
How exactly does one qualify as a "Pastor" for the purposes of the "Youth Pastor Watch"?
And the alleged incidents took place at his parents house while the boys were there overnight.
Perhaps this case would more appropriately be filed under the "Baby Sitters Gone Wild" Watch?

For a good run down on the distinctions of being gay, straight and/or a pedophile, head here:

http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/Article…

Summary: Men who abuse boys are usually straight-and there's science to back it up.

And yes, while Dan usually trumpets those accused, not those actually found guilty, these two have been indicted and plead guilty respectively.

I couldn't even identify the gender of #2 without reading. Ick.

Note to not-pervert Homosexuals everywhere—when are you going to stand and deliver? These predatory abusers are giving you all a bad name. It is your responsibility, more than anyone's, to fight the deviant perversion in your own ranks.

@ 15 Note to non-pervert heterosexuals everywhere - when are you going to stand and deliver? These over-whelmingly hetero predatory abusers are giving you all a bad name. It is your responsibility, more than anyone's, to fight the deviant perversion in your own ranks.

Fixed that for you - you're welcome.

@15 - What exactly are we non-pervert Homosexuals supposed to stand and deliver? Even if your assumption that these abusers come from our "ranks" (whatever those are) were true, which it isn't, as demonstrated in the video, what exactly do you want us to do? I know of no legitimate gay-rights organization that does not absolutely condemn child abuse in all forms. Are we to set up roaming bands of queer vigilantes to hunt down suspected child-molesters? If so, the perhaps you are suggesting we should start by setting our sights on Evangelical youth pastors and Catholic priests.

Nice video, after watching it it's easier to see the hater(s?) here flaunting his (their?) own ignorance without feeling the need to sit down and try and explain reality as understood by people with actual college degrees on the matters involved.
That video or something like it should be a regular feature of Youth Pastor Watch.
19
@14 - you're right. gender ambiguity = wayyy grosser than baby-touching. Eww!

In the defense of the homo haters (as much as I hate to do it)...

Molesting a 14 year old doesn't make you a pedophile in the strict sense. It isn't clear that the studies cited by boxturtle bulletin were using "pedophile" in the popular sense (anyone who prefers or has sex with minors), and probably more likely that they were using it in the *clinical* sense (someone who prefers or has sex with PREPUBESCENT children). A 14 year old is not prepubescent. The point made by those studies is that *prepubescent* boys are not manly, and have feminine qualities. Pubescent boys, on the other hand, well, that would vary by how old they were, but 14 year old boys are certainly much more masculine than 10 year old boys.

I would not be surprised if molestation of *teenaged children* showed a different pattern as to the sexuality of the offenders.

Not to say that the homo haters are justified in acting as if homosexual=child molester or vice versa AT ALL. But do keep in mind that clinical studies of pedophilia don't necessarily demonstrate anything at all about the properties of men who molest pubescent, or post-pubescent, teenagers.

@20 - I think the term you're thinking of is pederast - someone who likes adolescent boys >14y.o.
22
church is a great place for sexually undeveloped people to hide from a sexually obsessed and repressed society...aint that right pope benedict...religious people bring on perversion by linking human sexuality with filth when the bible and the koran is the true filth. religion sucks there is no god nor dead jew who is coming back to save you bastards.

Please wait...
