Then, I would suggest not bringing it up on this forum. Let that site do its updates and keep yourself and others here out of harm's way by not mentioning anything further here.
There's a difference between stumbling upon it and responding to it, correct? Just because one stumbles upon something doesn't give it the okay to respond.
Like Jay, I would agree that this thread should be closed. Enough said about it.
There may be a difference in "stumbling upon and responding" as what you say, but just remember, you all were the ones who posted 117 pages of this and to expect people not to post responses after you all did your postings is not even reasonable... unless it is closed to further postings. It is still up on the internet and there will be people from time to time that will see this and post their opinions. Like it or not, that is the way this cyberworld turns.
The administrator has the power to remove the thread or to close the thread from any more postings.

Actually, I like it when old posts are resurrected rather than new ones being started. If this one was closed all someone else would do is start a new thread titled "Whatever happened to the pastor who was convicted?" and bamm, we would be off again.
I do not trust this website, simply because it appears to be geared specifically toward anyone that has an issue with the 'Holiness Standards' or holding that the Acts 2:38 message is true. There are many of these sites in abundance, but I find that often their information is old, out of date, and decidedly one sided. I was in a church where there were some legal problems, and it was not the pastor's fault, but the saint did not due what the pastor said, and lawyers got involved and tried to allow the government to interfere with church finances. Attention was given to the case from HQ and other denominations because of the ramifications. I have to wonder what drove the agenda here. I wonder if the lawyer pushed this case as far as it went for the purpose of having a major victory under his belt. I do not know, and I do not care, but those things do happen. Remember the Duke University before we condem with the knowledge that a select few choose to give us.
There is nothing to be gained and everything to be lost by persuing this matter. The fact is that we have hearsay and gossip. Neither of those pleases our Lord and Master. Let this thread die, and the facts will be sorted before the judgment seat of Jesus Christ who will render a just verdict.

then why do you come here to read? If things said here are "not trustworthy", then aren't you wasting your time? Just curious.

There is an easy way to let a thread die - STOP POSTING ON IT. Duh!

What difference does it make which daughter it was?
Bro. Fogarty made a huge mistake, but was always known to be a good man...a close friend of my brother. I met him only once at the funeral of my nephew.
Let us pray for all involved...this is not a happy time for anyone.

Dude. Bring the named defendant into it, sure. But leave the family at home. Just IMHO.
Whether it's the young lady "on the right" or whatever, she wasn't found guilty of the slander. The old man just went over the top in trying to justify something in his own mind that needed no justification from the pulpit and got himself into a heap of trouble for it.
A picture is on their church site ... and name listed on the Spiritual Abuse site and she is mentioned in the story and in the legal documents .... and her business being discussed in this thread by various posters who I can list ...
was asked a question and answered to the best of my knowledge.
