Yet Another Fundie Megachurch Sex Scandal

The 80-year-old leader of an Atlanta megachurch had an affair with his brother's wife and fathered a child with her. And then he lied under oath about it -- all while he preached to others that they were sinners and took in their millions of dollars. Oh, and it's not his first sex scandal, having been accused several times in the past of "coercing" women to have sex with him. Boy are people dumb.

Update: I guess I should point out, as one of the comments did, that yes, that the church "opened its doors to gays," as the story says, and so it's not a "fundie" church as we have come to know them. Still, it's a testament to how people just blindly follow religious leaders.
