God will condemn your soul if you ever speak a word of this
Pastor Paul Mears of the Christian Gospel Temple in Cross Plains, Tennessee is being sued for raping four women, one his grand daughter, Crystal Mears, and another, Lynette Fay who claims the Pastor raped her on a daily basis between the ages of 4 and 12. The women say that the church leader, Cornelius Mears, the brother of their alleged assailant, knew and did nothing to stop it.
The dogmatism of religion was used as a means of controlling and covering up the sexual assault by the Pastor. The Pastor allegedly told his granddaughter:
“God will condemn your soul if you ever speak a word of this to anyone.”
Here is some interesting commentary about faith, and the involuntary indoctrination of children into religion.
This is a story about rape. This anecdote doesn’t prove or provide a commentary for anything.
It’s really sad when somebody is so full of hatred against anything and anybody religious, that they pluck isolated stories like this as some sort of “evidence” that all religious people are evil.
Here is a suggestion. Google “logical fallacies”. Study up and then figure out which one you just served up with this post.
Well Glen,
It seems that you are the one serving up logical fallacies by assuming the post was presented as evidence that all religious people are evil.
HB Keats–
William opened to the door for such an allegory by presenting a tangent at the end of his post.
Involuntary indoctrination of children following a story about child rape by a religious man. Sounds like he’s drawing a direct connection.
This ‘church’ is a branch off the movement called the ‘Body’ or Gospel Assembly.

you will be amazed.
These girls are just a small, small part of many abused by this system.
paul mears is NOT the pastor of CGT in Cross Plains , TN . He was a pastor in Phoenix , AZ PLEASE GET THE FACTS STRAIGHT.
He was the assitant pastor of CGT. He moved his Church from Arizona to TN and merged his Church with CGT. He sat on the platform in Tennessee and was part of the congregation in Cross Plains
I really don’t care to comment, but I feel that I should. He did not move the church from Arizona to TN. He moved. Also, do you realize that (You = people reading this) if the same people who say Gospel Assembly is a cult, would be the same people torturing Jesus and hanging Him on the cross? Same as the ones who persecuted Christians. It’s the same spirit. We should think about that.
Last time I checked, no one accused Jesus of raping kids.
