 Sounds like the place I went as a teenager!
I think the right thing to do is to be a gentleman, (lady), a Christian and a respectful person, and then leave. With some pastors you could never leave and be right, regardless. So do the things that make you right in your own heart, being honest with yourself and go on with your life.
If you know you did what's right that's what is important.
Just my thoughts.
