It was in the paper last week about him being arrested for taking sexual liberties with minors, 2 young boys, ages 4 and 5. Last year, they were saying on here that he was a pervert, so I guess where theres smoke, theres fire. Too bad, he gives Christianity a bad name. Just like the pedophile priests.

What was the title of the thread on here last year regarding that discussion? I would like to look it up.

He use to be at the Community Christian Church and his first name was Stephen, but I can't remember his last name. He was at a church in Oklahoma, but there again, can't remember the name. It was in either Wednesday or Thursday's Reporter last week. And no, I don't believe everything I read in the paper, but doubt they would put this in if the arrest hadn't been made, as they would be sued for slander.

"All things are possible through the Lord Jesus Christ" "Ask and you shall receive" Try telling that crap to those 4 & 5 year old children.Yes I know "There is a REASON" just beleive and don't question why. Give me a break, The "CHURCH" the one place so divine and our children not even safe there. Wouldn't you think if there was one thing you could count on your Hero the Lord and all of the wisdom and promises they teach he will do, would be to protect our babies from SEX MOLESTORS.
And before you judge me I do have experience on this topic.I was molested by a preacher when I was 8 years old, he was exposed to the church and they stood by him. GET YOUR HEAD OUT YOUR THE AS- AND TEACH THE REAL TRUTH TO OUR CHILDREN SO THEY CAN PROCECT THEMSELFS.

I sincerely say Thank you for posting this. However, I cannot blame Jesus for children who are molested. I blame the molestor.

Children were put to death in gas chambers. I will not blame Jesus for that either. I blame those who put those children to death in gas chambers.

We read of senseless murders in the news. I co not blame Jesus but those who murder.

Again, thank you for your comments. I agree with much of your comments, but I choose to blame the real culprit. I am not saying the preacher is guilty, but I am also saying Jesus is not guilty of this. Might be a interesting defense in court for the preacher. Don't say the devil made him do it, blame "the Lord" instead? Not a good defense. Don't think a jury would believe it.

If I was a witness to these preachers or anybody molesting children and did not do anything to stop it the world would be ready to linch me. Well I look at it the same way, here you got your Lord that will protect you and all you have to do is worship him and live as he tells to.Tell that to these children that not only were molested but tell that to the oneS that were molested,killed,torchued,disme mbered and the one's that were never found. Tell that to the familys of these babies. The Lord and Jesus knows all and sees all, all of the time ----RIGHT !!! AND DID NOTHING.

You should have said it "molests the English language" and your comment wouldn't have been judged off topic.

Judgement is finally coming to Steve Butler and I for one hope the (the court system) throws the book at him and locks him away for a very long long time. The judical system (State Attorney's Office) must believe without a shadow of a doubt that this man is guilty of the charges they have imposed upon him, to charge him and extradite him back to Kansas.
It is dispicable for a minister to hide behing the church to terrorize children. This man is a predator (of the worse kind), that takes advantage of helpless children.
Everyone should remember these small kids and what torment they have been going through and will continue to for the rest of their lives as they deal with the demons he bestowed upon them.
I hope the families of these children can finally find peace in knowing that he won't be able to do this to anyone else.
What exactly are the charges? If he is guilty I agree with you.

Well, they must think they have enough evidence, or they wouldn't have filed charges. We'll see.
