LOL nice find there. He has to justify it as it was a win for the church of his own integrity would be questioned. I am sure this is just one of the thousand other big wins or losses from the elders which make it to the newspapers. Shady how he related everything to God, its like the religions that claim that doing something bad is not really bad because God wanted it. Just use the almighty's name to justify your claim and you are good.

Such is how bad religion is, no wonder people started moving out from religious groups and started calling them out.

I know a similar situation but it was only published in local newspapers, but it's 100% real.

The priest was gathering money to renovate the whole church and after 2 years when some things were already done people noticed he was also promising new confession booths, but now is gathering money for that part once again, saying he did not have enough. People did some digging and found out he lost some of that money in a poker game. It was maybe $10k and just 10% of the money he got from donations, but enough to raise suspicions by delaying the renovations.
The people wanted him removed but as far as I know he's still working in the same church.

That just confirms that I chose well by not being religious.
