The judge said that parents of children taken by the missionaries made statements in their defense, The Associated Press reports.

What makes you think you know more than the judge who released them? It is not that child trafficking is “okie-dokey.” It is that the Baptists were accused of TAKING the children, when, in fact, the childrens’ parents admitted to have been willing to give them up. Where is your scorn for the parents, who are as much if not more to blame?
In fact, I am wondering whether this development will lead even ONE of the ten or so people who posted on the original thread to admit they were wrong in their knee-jerk reaction that, simply because “religion” was involved, the Baptists were “guilty until proven innocent.”
Let’s just say I won’t hold my breath…
Peace.

There you go. Trafficking in children, Haitian children, is pretty much okie-dokie.
Report thisEspecially when that trafficking is being worked by Baptismos. After all, don’t the
Baptismos sing that ditsy little song, “Jesus loves the little children?”
