Today's Blind Items - Tithing For Underage Sex

Apparently it is not just the Catholic priests that have a history of child molestation. In fact, one of the most prominent televangelists this country has ever known has an issue that hit really close to home. There is an offspring of this televangelist who married someone who is on television and social media every day preaching. She asks for money on a daily basis. What no one ever brings up to her or asks her about are the hundreds of text messages and sexts she sent underage boys, some of whom were as young as 15 years old asking them for sex. She did this while married. She never talks about or is asked about the 16 year old who had sex with her nine times. That is the only one who has come forward. I would love to hear from all the others. Maybe she can say she was ministering to them.

Jill Swaggart?

A Swaggert, Jimmy was a complete POS, he passed it on.

Gator said...

Franklin Graham's wife/ex-wife/whatever. I also thought of Robert Schuller's son, he always can across as a total phony, but I know nothing about his wife.

Jwill said...

Jill Swaggart.

Grew up in NJ in Baptist churches. Every one I attended was full of peds and incest families. Spent a good portion of my later teen years-mid 20s kicking the shit out of them. No regrets.

Sheeit, not even the church ladies are safe anymore.

They are all corrupt. Wasn’t jerry Falwell jr in love with his pool boy

An older male friend of mine told me he was at his small nondenominational church one day, and was talking to a woman who had a small child with her - about 5 or 6. She walked up to him and started unbuckling his belt! He was totally freaked out. She was a foster child, and her family was part of the mega church leadership.

momo said...

Oh it was Louisiana, Swaggartville, but not same church.

GROSS! Whoever this is.

We need to hear more from or about male victims too. Their masculinity gets impugned if their predator was male and they are confused if it's a female, because macho culture tells them that's a win.

And no it has NEVER been "just Catholics," I'm glad you mentioned that bit Mr. Ent Lawyer. Pedos go where the kids are and pedos can be found in any type of guise imaginable.

Samantha the 1st said...

momo, someone should report her.

TeeHee@U said...

Did she know they underage? There are some 16 year olds I went to high school with and they looked like they could easily pass for 21.

You guys have gone to some awful churches it seems. I have been to many Baptist/ Catholic services growing up and NONE of the leaders or members were creepy. I feel bad for you guys LOL.

But yeah...always beware of televangelists begging for money....and sex.

The pool poy of Jerry Falwell Jr has compromising pics of his wife, Becky. She met him at the pool in Miami Beach

Sam, my friend who was the witness told the elders at the church - of course nothing happened. I actually know the woman that the young girl has become. She ran from the church when she was 16. They had kept her in isolation because she was bucking them. Last time I saw her she was singing in a bar and had had a baby. I think in her case, she just wanted to GTFO. If you knew how corrupt and disgusting the police are in small parishes in Louisiana, you would understand why she didn't want to pursue it. I think getting out is enough sometimes. Once you get involved in litigation it takes over your life. Unfortunately I have experience in that realm.

Alf Landon said...

you don't get in position of power in this world without selling your soul no matter what field

Mooney said...

Pedos are the absolute worst of mankind and a church pedo, many many bad things should happen to them for what they have done.

AbbyRock said...

Don't know which televangelists have families.

In a sociology class, we had to do a paper on sexual abuse of children. There were articles written by both Protestant and Jewish clergy who could not understand why the focus was all on the Catholic church when their faiths were experiencing widespread sexual abuse with their ministers and rabbis as well.

gauloise said...

@abbyrock just few days ago, 40 students from Yeshiva University (a jewish university) came out with a sexual abuse lawsuit. barely any news on it. They said the children of holocaust survivor's were targeted. It is so sad.

Its easy to target the Catholics, I think, because of their vows of celibacy, so people kind of expect it and its not quite so shocking. Like they have "an excuse"

Nicole said...

My husband lived next door to that televangelist from Tulsa. Their home was in Newport Beach. He said that so-called God fearing man would beat his kids when he would come home from working in Tulsa. My hubbie said it was so bad that his Mom would have to close the windows so the screaming and crying wouldn't be heard inside the house. Disgusting.

molly said...

gauloise......don't forget the cover by the vatican..i.e.moving pedophile priests to another church. Ever wonder how they got by with it without police interfering? Also vatican's third in command, treasurer , was recently sent to prison for pedophilia. His job was to manage the money and launder mafia money as well. Maybe they are losing their grip on humanity? Our forefathers were very wary of the "papists" .......guess the inquisitions were not such far distant history that it was forgotten/shoved under the rug. Pedophilia is systemic in all western society.

Organized religions tend to be mostly about acquiring landholdings.

Dave said...

This has been well documented--it's Oral Robert's son Richard Roberts and his wife Lindsay. Good intro to the whole thing is here: https://longreads.com/2014/09/16/oral-roberts-family-history/

Jane said...

TeeHee@U You just aren't aware of the lurid, nasty little secrets of those church members. Usually, the louder a person condemns certain behaviors, the more they have to hide. Most churches are full of the guilty. They tend to fear for their souls and overcompensate. It all makes sense really. The guilty aren't very bright in the first place, considering they totally believe all of the bullshit they are told by the preacher.

cc423 said...

This is 100% Franklin Graham Jr. and his wife. They have a. history of giving young men a leg up if you will... Both the pool boy ion Florida and their VERY young personal trainer who was recently a student at Liberty have both been given tons of money from them.

Parade said...

Gigi or Anne Graham, Elizabeth or Anne Robertson.

Samantha the 1st said...

Mooney: It's heartbreaking. The level of betrayal of trust.

Rosie riveter said...

There are many good people in churches. They aren't all bad. Just wanted to set this little reminder here

Samantha the 1st said...

AbbyRock: thank you. The wider lesson is often lost. Some people hated the church already, so the specific hate has continued. Others just hate all religion. I'm glad some leaders in other groups spoke up.

"There were articles written by both Protestant and Jewish clergy who could not understand why the focus was all on the Catholic church when their faiths were experiencing widespread sexual abuse with their ministers and rabbis as well."

Large Marge said...

Am hoping that the hell these criminal hypocrites believe in is as hot and nasty as they say it is.

Samantha the 1st said...

Thank you Rosie. Religious folk and groups do a lot of good in the world, for no other reason than to try to help.

Makes it infuriating when one wolf is in the midst, it can ruin people's trust and faith in the good.

Brayson87 said...

It's like a crowd of mostly good people with a few pedos mixed in. Would you send your child to stand with them? Let's install some security cameras in churches to keep an eye on the clergy because obviously the angels are too busy to watch them.

MDAnderson said...

That’s Jerry Falwell Jr not Frank.

My 15th summer our postman was a woman in a short postal skirt and she'd blow me from head to toe two or three times a week while Mom was at work. I'm still jerking off to such incredible luck decades later. Yeah, this church bitch is a menace.

Brayson87 said...

The UPS guy must have been rough though right? 😅

Bonby Haud said...

I was thinking Graham, but Graham seems like he's alright. Osteen and swaggart on the other hand..

Unknown said...

I think this is Oral Roberts' son Richard's wife, Lindsey Roberts. She was in a big scandal in Tulsa some years back with one of the Oral Roberts University boys she had living in their pool house, or something. They also stole money from the University. It fits, but I could be wrong.

JBW said...

"Maybe she can say she was ministering to them. "....She WAS! At the purple altar of the holy helmet!

KnitWit said...

The Italian monsters are Roman Catholic. Not Baptist. Probably different parts of Jersey.

NotTonyAtlas said...

how often does a baptist minister give someone money to buy a liquor store? (referencing the queerty link). IMHO it has to be Falwell Jr. Credible allegations of underage sexting would be highly detrimental to their ministry.

Unknown said...

Just a suggestion but has anyone got anything dirt 0n Marty Copeland.
I can`t find anything on her (google/european fiters). She`s also a fitness freak in her 50`s, so she probabley fancys her chance`s in the ring with a young buck.

Count Jerkula said...

16 is the most common age of consent in the US. What state were they in, so I know whether to be outraged or not care?

Samantha the 1st said...

Why does that scene between Jason and the evangelist's wife in True Blood keep going through my head. That is how I am picturing this woman, whoever she is.

T. W. said...

@Brayson87

Some of the Church Ladies will grope you faster than the men.

orangesoda said...

Yeah, it's obviously not just the Catholics, is it? Peados in power will always take advantage. Take a look at your local mosques.
