A person would have to be blind lately to all of the issues plaguing Hollywood directors and studio heads who have molested, sexually assaulted and raped women in the industry. As the issue explodes on the news, more and more women are coming forward stating that they too had been assaulted or raped.
This is not isolated to the film industry but seems to be an issue across the board to even include the military and the Churches of God.
Church of God members are always quick to say nothing like this would ever happen in the true church, but it did and still does, even in 2017.
From Herbert Armstrong's incestuous assaults of his daughter to Garner Ted raping and bragging about illicit sex with 200 plus coeds, to ministers stalking women, peering in bathroom windows, raping women, teenage girls and small children.
Facebook is filled with stories right now by women who are XCG members and who are sharing their stories about being raped, assaulted or molested by ministers, fellow church members or family members. In many of the cases, they report that the ministry was told and did absolutely nothing, except some the person who had been molested or raped.
PCG is notorious for this. They will suspend a man for a few weeks and then let them back in or totally ignore the situation. Many of the ministers in the PCG ministry should be in prison.
United Church of God has had similar issues. One even took her stalker to court and UCG ministers and members lied under oath and tried to blame the women.
Worldwide Church of God was a cesspool of women's abuse. Some of the abusers were kicked out, others let back in, and in every single case, nothing was done for the woman assaulted. No counseling, NOTHING, other than trying to place blame on her.
Numerous Church of God ministers, elders, and church members are currently in prison for doing such things and it will not stop, unfortunately. Some in the church will say that this is the result of "broken men living in a broken world" and that we should go easy on them and let God handle it all later.
How many Church of God women need to be assaulted and raped before the church leaders do something?
