Biship Eddie: Long on Homophobia, Short on Truth

James Withers, contributing editor of 365Gay, said of the return of "Bishop" Eddie Long:

"It’s been a difficult week for Bishop Eddie Long. The View’s Sherri Shepherd dogged him out. Fellow minister Creflo Dollar offered a defense that didn’t help much.Now there are rumors that Vanessa Long, the First Lady of New Birth, has left her man (thanks to Rod. 2.0 for this intel). The talk is that she has taken the children and moved out the house.

"No word from the pr team of New Birth.

"As most of you know, the good Bishop settled with four young men who charged him with using treats (trips and such) for booty. You would think after forking money over, Long would keep quiet for a while. He recently asked for more donations for two new satellite branches. The request was only for anything up to $1,000.

'Remember Alec Baldwin’s spellbinding rant in Glengarry Glenn Ross? According to his character it takes brass balls to sell real estate. Long’s privates are made out of that metal. Settlement for gay sex, no wife or children (allegedly), and a reputation that now is a punch line. Yet the huckster continues to troll for cash. Gotta love it."

Long is that worst sort of bigot: the hypocrite who lambastes against homosexuality even as he pursues homosexual partners.  This is a form of bearing false witness.  I do not know what Vanessa will do, but Mr. ReverEND Long should resign for breaking his "God's" commandments.
