“You have things that are being done that on their own terms are unspeakably horrific, and then made even worse because what’s usually happening is someone is hiding behind the authority of Jesus Christ, communicating that this is who Jesus is to the person that they are preying upon, or even using Christian doctrines that are precious and twisting them into something horrific.”
