A 19-year-old granddaughter of Jan and Paul Crouch is suing them over an alleged sexual assault which occurred when she was 13. Carra Crouch claims that her grandmother and the ministry's attorney took the side of the church employee who raped her and blamed her for the attack.
As ordained ministers, the Crouches were legally bound to report suspected incidences of child abuse.
Here's the lovely Jan and her husband:
Astreja:
Horrific and completely inexcusable.
I look forward to the granddaughter's victory in the lawsuit, and subsequent ruin of the Crouchs' entire evangelical empire.

Jan and Paul Crouch obviously look to God for guidance:
De:22:28: If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
De:22:29: Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
"Ah," you may say, "but he did not marry her!"
Well, of course not! Secular law prvents the marriage of a 13 year old. And we are commanded,
"1st Peter 2:13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
1st Peter 2:14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
1st Peter 2:15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:"
You see, if a Godly President had been in power, a marriage celebration would have taken place. Yet all there is now is bitterness.
I urge you all to vote for a president that will bring about a theocracy. & )

Evidently god has not blessed these people with the moral sense of a couple of brain-damaged hyenas. Or the fashion sense of two mutated zombies ten years into the apocalypse. :P

You just need to be a theist.[1] 1. And no, I'm not saying all theists are like that, nor am I saying that no atheists are like that. But theists do make up the vast majority of "severely fucked up people".
