Would you continue following your religion if you found out its leader was a child molestor?

Would you brush it aside or would you refuse to have anything more to do with it?

so you were following the leader and not the religion, doesn't sound like a true faith so yeah

@Jackaloftheazuresand Well it's leader is the head of the religion is it not?
Jackaloftheazuresand26-30, M
@Entwistle no, the founder is and even that is just the humans when technically it's the deity or force

All major and many minor religions have this issue.
I wouldn't follow religion anyway.

"Leader" meaning what? The founder or prophet? The current "head honcho"?

Seems to me that a religion isn't worth following in the first place if it can be invalidated by the discovery of "dirt" on a single person.

@SW-User The founder or the prophet. The person who sets up the religion.

These days anything can be called a religion. As far as Christianity, Jesus is the head of his church given to him by God. So your question is impossible if you鈥檙e talking about true Christianity.

I don't worship people, I worship God and nothing will stop me from worshipping Him

I would have nothing more to do with him

My religion doesn't have a leader.
