(643 posts)74. Obviously what he said is shocking and disgusting
But what I find most appalling is that he wasn't jeered as soon as he said it. The fact that people didn't get up and walk out of the sermon is something I can't understand. It's one thing for a single person to have outlandish and reprehensible views, but it's terrifying that an entire church is walking to follow that person without question.
The fact that he isn't getting backlash from his own people is what bothers me the most.

The old "she was asking for it defense." Sick. The only way to comply with MAGAt and evangelical rape laws

This pastor must also think women in swimsuits at a public beach are asking to be raped!

I suppose Republicans would prefer women to wear burkas, but then what excuse would they give for condoning rape?
