Anti-Gay Pastor Busted For Trying To Pick Up Male Prostitute Decoy
quote: Article by The Associated Press
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - An executive committee member of the Southern Baptist Convention was arrested on a lewdness charge for propositioning a male plainclothes policeman outside a hotel, police said.
Lonnie Latham, senior pastor at South Tulsa Baptist Church, was booked into Oklahoma County Jail Tuesday night on a misdemeanor charge of offering to engage in an act of lewdness, police Capt. Jeffrey Becker said. Latham was released on $500 bail Wednesday afternoon.
Latham, who has spoken out against homosexuality, asked the officer to join him in his hotel room for oral sex. Latham was arrested and his 2005 Mercedes automobile was impounded, Becker said.
Calls to Latham at his church were not immediately returned Wednesday.
The arrest took place in the parking lot of the Habana Inn, which is in an area where the public has complained about male prostitutes flagging down cars, Becker said. The plainclothes officers was investigating these complaints.
The lewdness charge carries a penalty of up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine.
Latham is one of four Southern Baptist Convention executive committee members from Oklahoma.
He spoke out last year against a measure, ultimately approved by voters, to expand tribal gaming.
He has also spoken out against same-sex marriage and in support of a Southern Baptist Convention directive urging its 42,000 churches to befriend gays and lesbians and try to convince them that they can become heterosexual "if they accept Jesus Christ as their savior and reject their 'sinful, destructive lifestyle."
The Southern Baptist Convention is the nation's largest Protestant denomination.

It seems like such a universal irony that when the big hypocrites decide to indulge in what they usually condem they end up trying it on with a policeman. Or maybe it's just some kind of Darwinism that affects those who are to opinionated for no reason .
I'm sure little baby Jesus is spinning in his grave.

Probably.
Of course, he's probably more distressed with the state of our nation in general, but that's just a whole slew of other threads...

I'm sure the gay community will weclome him if he accepts he is homosexual and rejects his destructive, Christian lifestyle.

Yep, a 2005 Mercedes, that's just wrong. Still, it's good to see the old life of poverty and all wealth to God and his good works is going so well for him.

And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an Angel of light. It is not suprising, then, if his servants masquerades as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.
