driscoll’s take on haggard the wife’s to blame
Mark driscoll is at it again. This time pontificating on the recent scandal around ted haggard, he suggests that one of the reasons poele like haggard does this stuff is their wives “let themselves go” here’s a quote.
Most pastors I know do not have satisfying, free, sexual conversations and liberties with their wives. At the risk of being even more widely despised than I currently am, I will lean over the plate and take one for the team on this. It is not uncommon to meet pastors’ wives who really let themselves go; they sometimes feel that because their husband is a pastor, he is therefore trapped into fidelity, which gives them cause for laziness. A wife who lets herself go and is not sexually available to her husband in the ways that the Song of Songs is so frank about is not responsible for her husband’s sin, but she may not be helping him either.
I’m beginning to think that either Driscoll has lost the capacity to think before he talks or he thinks he is so golden that he can say stuff like this without impunity.
