"She went to the police instead. Good for her. The level of denial in this story is so deep and dark, that it’s almost like a bottomless pit. The more you try to peer into the minds of these people, the darker and more frightening it becomes. The excuses, the attempts at justification, the lengths to which these church members have gone to, to try to make this behavior seem OK, is just astonishing. Yes, it’s hard to admit that someone you know and maybe even like or consider a friend, is a pervert in every sense of the word. But when the denial is so extreme that it makes you believe that something like this was just “fun and games” or that it was “an attempt at discipline” it’s time to take another look at your own motivation. A child was harmed. There is no excuse for that. The harder you try to think of one, the more ignorant you sound."
We've seen similar justifications and rationalizations for why vpw and his criminal gang
didn't actually do bad things when they performed felonies.

One might argue this could have fit in "About the Way" because of how the issue was
addressed once the pervert was caught.

I might consider it horse play ONLY if the penis belonged to a horse and he was playing with it!

Thanks.You have a good point. Maybe a Mod could make that decision and move it if it's deemed appropriate to do so.
