Hopefully some of the 5500 people who go listen to the family of con artists every Sunday will wise up and realized they have been scammed.

That motherfucker also pastes things?

What?

@BD66 well, because you wrote he's your paster.

@Mofo1953 OK, I get it. I meant my "locality", not my "church". That SOB has taken plenty of money from my mother.

Normal loss from a scandal such as is is around 10%, most return to another institution. Most of the abusers will return to the pulpit within a few years and begin again. Even non denoms that cease to exist simply have their members move to another mega facility, sometimes the new church will open in the same building. Marx said religion is the opiate of the masses, he did not realize that many like opiates over real life.

As an atheist, I with there was a fiery hell for men who abuse women and children.

Oftentimes it's the men who are really abused by the church. In a nuclear family with a stay at home mom, the guy is out there struggling to support his family. The wife gets taken in by a swindler like Mike Baker and starts giving lots of money to the church. The guy ends up working many more years before retirement because of all the money going to the con artist and his church.

It seems that they never realize. They just move on to the next con man.
