Bishop Eddie Long Denies The Sexual Abuse Charges Filed Against Him During Sunday Sermon

Dreamin' Demon – You know what I enjoy more than watching a snake oil salesman work his craft and fleece the stupid of their hard earned money?

Watching the media expose a snake oil salesman before his peers, revealing what he truly is.

In the case of Bishop Eddie Long, the leader of Atlanta’s New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, he is being exposed as a manipulative, homosexual hypocrite along the lines of Larry Craig and Mark Foley. The man marched against same sex marriage, and his anti-gay stance was so tough that civil rights leaders refused to attend the funeral of Coretta Scott King that was held at his megachurch.

But surprise, surprise, the good old gay-hating bishop was doing what he could to make life for gays miserable in one hand, while allegedly caressing the dicks of 17-year-old boys in the other. Four young men have now came forward, charging Long with using his position to force them into sexual relationships while treating them to gifts, trips in private planes and stays in luxury hotels. Long cancelled a few scheduled interviews where he was to address these charges, promising to address them in his Sunday sermon.

“It will be tried in the court of justice, and dealt with in the court of justice,” Long told 8,000 parishioners on Sunday. “I feel like David, against Goliath, but I’ve got five rocks, and I haven’t thrown one yet.” Although there was loud bleating applaud from his flock, interviews afterwards showed mixed reactions.

B.J. Bernstein, the lawyer for Spencer LaGrande, Jamal Parris, Maurice Robinson and Anthony Flagg, has said she has proof of the relationships between Long and her clients in the form of photos, texts and e-mails. Some of these pictures are already making their rounds on the Internet, showing Long posing before a mirror in a variety of muscle shirt outfits. ”What pastor in his right mind sends a picture from himself, posing in his bathroom in a muscle shirt?” Bernstein said. “None that I know of — especially one who is a committed homophobe.” lol, I know, right?

Rumors are that this is just the tip of the iceberg, and that more victims will surely come forward. In the meantime I will sit back in watch in amazement. Not at Long’s continual denial of all of the charges despite the very incriminating evidence (I mean come on, who sends pics of themselves to young boys dressed as Milli Vanilli?) but rather the members of his church who will continue to stand by him and put money in his pockets.
