Being "swept away" isn't the same thing as trying to handle it in-house, which, by the way, IS the biblical method. The leaky faucet here is that the videos were posted publicly (I assume), which made the offense public. Ergo, it should probably be addressed in an equally public way (relatively speaking, since the general public probably didn't view the videos).

I object to spreading this beyond the scope of those who didn't know or were in no position to know what happened, and in that way, deliberately preventing containment. Public humiliation and castigation is the end goal; not any sort of resolution or wise correction. I mainly dislike the euphoria that some people seem to get from someone messing up or acting foolish. That's as disturbing as the name calling.

I'm not so disturbed by church people being aware that something went awry at a conference, but I don't really get the need to spill it outside the walls. I'm sure it will be addressed, especially if there's a lot of negative feedback.
