the only surprising thing about predators fleeing to bornagain churches is how it only occurs to them after they’re exposed like everyone knows the church will help predators, he could’ve done this decades ago

i’m failing to parse this, are we agreeing? or debating if abusers don’t come to churches before getting caught? they definitely do, it’s just weird that someone like Brand could see the proverbial big flashing billboard advertising they’re pro-abuse, while being an abuser, and not think to sign up
