Are we sure about this? It does not seem right that someone charged with a crime should be restricted at church. Convictions, okay. But I thought we were innocent until proven guilty.

This looks like a witch hunt to me. The man is dead. He cannot defend himself. I don't see he was never convicted of a crime.  Nothing but allegations. 

The media is some of the most ungodly people trying to smear God's people.

Joe, I agree with you about the media. Lot of really evil people involved in it, including the SDA media. Private SDA webzines are at the forefront of pushing the gay agenda on the denomination. They are backed by boards. Those boards are often include wealthy, influential people in the denomination. Some years ago, an SDA university president was caught in a police sting targeting men soliciting sex in public restrooms. I was approached by homosexuals on two different SDA college campuses back in the 70s. One was obvious, the other not so much. I ran him off before his scheme was revealed but I know the type. It's just more in the open now.

SDA media would have us believe that changing the marital state from hetero to homo is OK, while they oppose Sunday observance. If the Sabbath shouldn't be changed, why should the marital state?

Kinship is now promoting an upcoming Kamp meeting. They posit that homosexual denominational employees could lose their jobs if confidentially is not respected, suggesting that ~tithe dollars are paying closeted homosexuals working for the denomination. I attended church, ate potluck with an SDA M.D. convicted of sexual crimes against a young person. His wife divorced him, he lost his physician's license, and had a hard time finding employment as a registered sex offender. He was actually quite a nice guy. He spent time in jail. I was unaware of any restrictions under which he attended church. Perhaps he was clandestinely monitored.

You are right about the need for careful investigation of charges like this. I was acquainted with one of the RC priests in Los Angeles who was convicted of pedophilia related crimes. Would have never guessed his tastes ran along those lines. When the news reported his case, they said that there was just one victim. Just one? Not really. The statute of limitations had run out on others. According to Ron Lawson's research, some of the most preeminent families in Adventism have homosexual members, not necessarily pedophiles but homosexual.

In some Asian countries, a mere accusation can upend your life. Even somewhat official accusations can be based on gossip rather than facts. Careful. You don't need a drunken guy with a machete hunting you down, based on a lie.
