I am once again asking for thoughts/opinions this time on this article and topic. This one is a bit more taboo so I am not expecting anyone to expose their personal lives in any way. I am just curious what the views of people of faith on the board.

Now I have discussed with a few religious leaders of different faiths that I go to for education on their faiths. They are all in agreement against the "Raunchy Christians" ethos. But I also see a great deal of research and have met a number of people who are into just about every sexual vice but are also self described Christians who attend church on a regular basis. It is why things like the Moms For Liberty "scandal" wasn't surprising or even out of the ordinary for me. The “I go to church because I’m a sinner not a saint!” is a motto I hear all the time.
