RALEIGH, N.C. (ABP) -- Coy Privette, the president of a Christian morality group and a former state legislator and Southern Baptist Convention leader, has been arrested on prostitution-related charges in North Carolina.

Privette, the president of the Christian Action League in North Carolina, was charged July 19 with six counts of aiding and abetting prostitution.

According to arrest documents secured by the Biblical Recorder, Privette's alleged actions took place in a Rowan County hotel between May 4 and June 25. Tiffany Denise Summers, 32, of Salisbury, N.C., was charged with six counts of prostitution in connection with the investigation.

Privette, 74, is a former trustee of the Christian Life Commission (now Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission), the Southern Baptist Convention's moral-watchdog agency. He is a former trustee chair of the SBC's Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, N.C.

1. Would this be a good time to remind everyone that same-sex marriage threatens heterosexual marriage?

On the other hand, Mr. and Mrs. Privette's relationship is stronger than ever. :eyes:

2. No doubt he meant to say

"We discourage the promotion and use of beverage alcohol and other drugs, pornography, sexual immorality and other sinful practices for people other than ourselves that not only undermine the spiritual lives of those who participate in them but also undermine the strength of our state and national character."

13. Wow, this kind of news is getting way too predictable.

It's getting to the point where you can just spin the wheel and come up with another member of the "morals and values" crowd that got caught with choice of sin. And to me it's really amusing. :rofl:
