I hope you are right. My guess is if some high profile player got a girl prenant or if it was alleged in the newspaper he had sex with her, there would be a good chance he would be gone. I would say BYU does a great job of keeping this stuff quiet, so much so that if anyone asked me if any BYU players had consentual sex outside of the bonds of marriage, I would have to answer, no. At least based on what I have heard in the media. |

Agreed. It was the guy's own

A person I am doing business with was the executive secretary to the SP. They were shocked when I exposed the guy's youtube entry. It was a setup from the beginning by the guy taping the council.

Are there any accounts of Christ excommunicating someone from his church in the NT? (Not trolling, just don't have my scriptures available).

No, I'm not really sure what purpose excommunication does, even in the case of a repentant child abuser. Enlighten me. For a time, I actually worked with a group of sexual offenders. Guess what? God loves them (but probably not as much as those who "have sat on disciplinary councils"). Some of the most touching testimonies of the Atonement came from that group.

He later became a bishop, not a stake president though. Rogue Stake Presidents seem relatively rare given the years of being in the leadership which is required to rise to that level.
