Alleged Homo Bishop Eddie Long Scandal: S.C. Pastor Calls for Resignation, Plans Rally
I don’t know if these allegations are true. But, I’ve heard rumors for quite a long time that there are a number of gay undercover pastors in Atlanta.
Who knows?
But, I’ll say this. Why does every pastor have to become a “bishop”? What’s wrong with the “pastor” title to lead a church?
I think that’s a bigger scandal.
CBS News reports that many of Bishop Eddie Long's followers have remained loyal to the Atlanta megachurch pastor despite the allegations that he lured four young men into sexual relationships, but the pastor of a small South Carolina church is calling for Long to step down.

Bishop Prophet H. Walker of True Light Pentecost Church in Spartanburg, S.C. plans to rally at Georgia's state capital to call for Long's resignation, claiming that the accused pastor is a "bad influence on the Christian church and future generations," reports the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
Walker, who claims his church is opposed to homosexuality, intends to "support the integrity and character of the Christian faith," on Oct. 31, but refused to say exactly how many members of his church would follow suit, reports the paper.
