That is according to an Op-Ed published in the Los Angeles Times by Kathryn Brightbill, now a legislative analyst for the Coalition for Responsible Home Education, a non-profit that advocates for the interests of home-schools children.
Brightbill writes that she grew up being homeschooled in a family that was part of the Christian evangelicalism movement, where 14-year-olds courting adult men isnt uncommon.
I use the phrase 14-year-old girls courting adult men,' she explains, rather than adult men courting 14-year-old girls for a reason: Evangelicals routinely frame these relationships in those terms.
Lots of info in this article. Here is a little more
She explains much of the sexual abuse that takes place in Independent Fundamentalist Baptist, or IFB, churches involves adult men targeting 14-to-16-year-old girls. If caught, the teenage victim may be forced to repent the sin of having seduced an adult man.
Moore, according to his Pastor Tom Brown, has attended the First Baptist Church in Alabama for most of his life, an IFB congregation.
While American law, and conventional wisdom, is that the adult male is the one who is responsible for taking advantage of a girl who is too young to be blamed, this group of sickos turns that on its head, blaming the girl for seducing the older man, and making it impossible for him to turn her down.
That was the argument in an appeal filed by Jack Schaap, 56-years-old and married, who was the pastor of a 15,000-member downtown mega-church and president of Hyles-Anderson College in Indiana in 2014 when he was convicted of molesting a 16-year-old girl and was sentenced to 12-years in prison.
The girl had approached Schaap for counseling. She later wrote to the investigators that the pastor has violated my trust. But when it was being violated, I didnt even know it because he made me believe what we were doing was OK and right in the eyes of God.
