"this isn't what it looks like" Pastor caught with naked bound man. In a car on a public street.

A pastor in western Pennsylvania is speaking out after being accused of open lewdness and indecent exposure after being caught by police with a bound naked man in a car parked on a public street.

First he told the cops:
Gregory allegedly said the two "were just playing" and he and the other man "meet up from time to time to play with each other." The other man confirmed that what they were doing was consensual,

then he claimed....“I was counseling a young man with a drug problem.”
“It did turn strange, but it wasn’t my doing, OK? And I was adamant that I’m not participating in that way. And so that’s when the police pulled up, and they assume things, but I’m standing by my story. It’s not true.”

But
"I won't deny that he began to take his clothes off and propositioned me, but I will deny, on a stack of Bibles with God as my witness, that I did nothing," Gregory said.

Gregory points out he had his clothes on during the alleged incident, so "there's no reason for me to be charged with open lewdness."


Did not see any explanation for the other guy to be bound.

Gotta give the guy credit for bluster, tho. Most people realize how stupid they sound and stop halfway thru.

I will deny that I did nothing. So then you did something?

Nothing wrong with two consenting adults of opposite or same sex engaging in sexual activities. Presumably they should do so in the privacy of their homes, or some other location and not in public, but I understand that there are some people that are into that too.

It is the hypocrisy that continues to irritate. This guy probably stands up on the pulpit and moralizes and scolds people for being "bad Christians" then he's out there doing this and lying about it when caught.

Many virulent anti gay pastors have turned out to be closet LGBTQ. Don't know why they make a choice to hate what they are, but all do.

If God wanted them to hate LGBTQ people, no LGBTQ people would ever be born. They don't seem to understand that.

Just because you're caught blowing your boyfriend doesn't mean you're gay.

But if you get off while doing it, well hell, that's a different matter...

Haven't you heard of emaculate bounding, it is a thing among gay evangelical preachers who are denying their birth status.
