Christian Coalition head to "withdraw from political life" (abuse scandal)
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The longtime head of the Christian Coalition of Oregon said Monday that he is "withdrawing from public life," a day after news reports detailed accusations of sexual abuse against him by three female relatives.

"I am thankful for a family that loves and supports me, and intend to withdraw from public life until this is resolved," Lou Beres wrote in a statement posted on the organization's web site, at http://www.coalition.org.

Beres has denied any criminal misconduct and wrote that he will "pursue the Biblical response and do all within my power to reconcile with that person."

Multnomah County District Attorney Michael Schrunk told The Oregonian newspaper that officials are investigating the complaints against Beres.

4. Yet another fake Christian from the right wing...
The rate at which these hypocrites are being exposed lately is shocking.

5. Pursue the BIBLICAL response??? That could be a very bad thing.
Especially since he tends to favor the not-so-compassionate parts of the Bible...

6. Wonder if he has a numbered account in the Caymans
where money was siphoned to from what he was skimming . . .

Can you say "Flight Risk"?

8. He is obviously a victim
of a sinister conspiracy hatched by Democrats to destroy him and Christianity in general. Those evil geniuses at the DNC probably planted those three females in his family years ago with orders to seduce him.

9. "Reconcile with that person?" He is being accused by THREE female
relatives of molesting them when there were preteens. THAT person is the nephew that is speaking for the female relatives. I believe the BIBLICAL response would be to tie a millstone around his neck and throw him in a lake.
