[Vision2020] What is wrong with this picture?

There's more wrong with this picture than I could possibly state, but for starters it's disgusting, immoral, unbiblical, foolish, and shameful.Ruining a young girl's life, poisoning her faith, and putting her health at risk aren't actions that ought to lead to a new career doing important administrative duties at Dad's church.  keelyFrom: deco at moscow.comTo: vision2020 at moscow.comDate: Wed, 4 Apr 2007 08:54:26 -0700Subject: [Vision2020] What is wrong with this picture?

Accused youth pastor can keep working at church 
Associated 
Press April 4, 2007
POCATELLO, Idaho – A youth pastor charged with sexually abusing a minor may 
continue to work at the church where the crime allegedly occurred, a judge 
says.
Joshua J. Robinson, 29, was charged in February with two counts of lewd 
conduct with a minor and one count of sexually abusing a minor for allegedly 
abusing a teenage girl starting when she was 15 years old.
Because of the charges, a no-contact order was issued directing Robinson to 
stay away from the girl. But last month, 6th District Judge Peter McDermott 
modified the order, allowing Robinson to return to his job as a youth pastor at 
Gate City Christian Church in Chubbuck. Robinson is still prohibited from 
contacting people younger than 18.


  
  
    On Monday, Bannock County Deputy Prosecutor Cleve 
Colson asked the judge to reconsider the change. One of the charges against 
Robinson allegedly took place at the church, Colson said, and the prosecutor's 
office is worried that the youth pastor still has access to minors at the 
church. Robinson also is allegedly still participating in a church Web site that 
is frequented by the congregation's youth, Colson said.
A phone call to the church's senior pastor, John Robinson, was not 
immediately returned. John Robinson is Joshua Robinson's father, a church 
receptionist said.
Joshua Robinson's attorney, Aaron Thompson of Dial, May & Rammell in 
Pocatello, said the younger Robinson is no longer handling youth ministries at 
the church and instead is doing administrative duties that don't involve contact 
with young people.
McDermott said Robinson could continue to work at the church. A trial has 
been scheduled for June 26.
