Didn't I Say Rape is Rape?

Okay, this is going to be a short rant on the headlines discussing Christian radio host John Balyo's charges of Criminal Sexual Conduct.

There is no instance in which a 12-year-old boy can consent to having sex with an adult. So let's call it what it is shall we? It is rape. Unequivocally rape.

This man:
raped a 12-year-old boy.

Furthermore, I have another bone to pick. The fact that he is Christian, and a Christian radio host at that, does not make him immune to free will or sin. This very fact has blown this headline up to the top of the news market and it aggravates me because it doesn't make it any more heinous of a crime. We are all subjected to free will and sin, in all walks of life. The fact that he is Christian and decided to partake in evil does not make the crime worse versus had he been a hardened criminal.

Don't you think that all criminals at one point had some type of moral compass they were living by?

I know the man who raped me was a Christian. Didn't change his ability to utilize free will and defame me for years. He made a conscience decision, as did John Balyo, to rape a minor, and now he is going to face consequences. Not only earthly, but heavenly as well.

So remember: RAPE is RAPE and anyone with free will is capable of doing it.
