  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

A child abuser will always lie and minimize abusing their victims and blame the victims, when they are caught. This is what this preacher did. Since he was charged with doing this.
  1. Wrapped packing tape around the mouths and heads of three 13-year-old boys as punishment for talking in class. The tape remained on for about 45 minutes until a teacher removed it. The victims reported difficulty breathing and pain during the removal process.
  2. Placed his hand over the mouth and nose of a 4-year-old student, preventing the child from breathing until the child went limp.
  3. Held a 4-year-old boy upside down by his ankles and whipped his buttocks.
  4. In a separate incident, covered the same 4-year-old's mouth and nose with his hand to stop a "tantrum," preventing the child from breathing "to the point of him going limp." After this incident, the boy was "unable to stand."
  5. The article also mentions another episode from six years earlier, detailed in a lawsuit, where Raymond allegedly assaulted another child, causing "serious bodily injury" or "neurological impairment."
Disgusting.

They belong in prison.

None excuse for that abusive behavior.

I don't trust juries anymore. I don't trust our judicial system to properly instruct them or to allow into evidence, any evidence they don't want to be a part of the approved narrative.

I'm betting this was another sham trial in order to eliminate Democratic political opponents instead of running a campaign against their ideas and the fact there was no police report or medical attention given at the time of supposed serious child abuse rather emphasizes that.
Aaaand off to the conspiracy theory section we go...

If we hadn't already seen so many it would be easy to agree with you... But sadly, the conspiracy theory section just hit mainstream when they all came true.

Except we haven't, and you have nothing to back up your conspiracy claim here. So, conspiracy theory section we are off to. Don't even try to pretend that you just were downplaying child abuse here by claiming it was a conspiracy.
