Ok, I don't care if you are Christian, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Atheist, Hindu, dead, etc...
I used to go to a church youth group. I was on a Christian dance team, and the leader was named Frank. Frank always seemed really nice, and he was always worried about people thinking him giving me a ride home would be inappropriate.
The guy was overall good, leading the youth of this particular church. THEN something happened (I don't know what) and he suddenly cut all ties to my church. He started a YOUTH group in a town about thirty miles away. This was all happening when I was 14 and he was 23. Years later, like yesterday, I was browsing through facebook, and I found some serious dirt.
He got married to a girl, from youth group, when she was 17, (she's 18 now, still younger than me.)
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing to say about age gaps, teen marriage, etc... but I still think taking a woman to be your wife who you were supposed to be teaching the bible to is wrong. I know love is all over, but seriously? I don't know, maybe it is because I knew him personally.
I wouldn't have posted here, but they are both facebook friends and I really don't want to piss them off.
Anyone else see the inappropriateness?
