California pastor stole the whole church

By GARANCE BURKE, Associated Press Writer Mon Feb 12, 3:55 PM ET

RIPON, Calif. - For nearly a decade, members of Ripon's First Congregational Church bared their souls to Pastor Randall Radic. But clearly it didn't work both ways. There were certain things he wasn't telling them.

Maybe this is why the town was so quiet. How infuriating. If you read, this guy's congregation was mostly old people. I know forgiveness is important, but couldn't I forgive him and still wish that some inmates beat the shit out of him while he served his 6 months time?

Why can't smug bastards like this be used for scientific experimentation, or made to work with raw sewage, or something?

But in an imperfect world ... people behave imperfectly. (wah wah waaah)

Oh.. Well that's alright then. That's just the perfect excuse, because, as you all know, we understand that completely.

Excuse me while I gag for a moment.

Yeah. But he's not completely correct. People can behave perfectly. In his case, he's a perfect asshole.

That's not "imperfect". That's fanfuckingtastically immoral.

"Imperfect" is telling someone they look fat in that dress when you know it's going to bother them. Imperfect is burning your dinner.

Bilking a bunch of trusting old people is perfectly vile.

Just for the record, there's something about this style that in my browser (Firefox, on a Mac) makes the fonts unreadably small for the comments. The first one's usually okay (small, but legible), but then any followups get so tiny it's hard to read.

(Yes, I know I can manually make the text larger and then turn it back, it's just a PITA)

Plus, the buttons for "Post comment" and so on are the same color as the page background. :P

Yeah, I just noticed that. I'm not sure how to go about fixing that yet, either. Pity, as I like this motif.
