How many Baptist minister sexual predators? How many victims?
How many? Christa Brown at Stop Baptist Predators answers:
Most people who sexually abuse kids have multiple victims, often dozens. But again, let’s calculate this on the conservative side. Even if you count only the currently active 3,030 Southern Baptist pedophile ministers, and even if you only count 3 victims for each of them, that’s still 9,090 kids who will be molested and raped by Baptist ministers.
Where is the tracking database that would do so much to fence clerical predators away from Baptist young people? Nowhere. Failure to create it is one Time Magazine’s top underreported stories of 2008.
