A prominent right-wing preacher who appeared alongside Senate candidate Roy Moore at a campaign rally just days ago said that Moore dated teen girls because of their purity and because when he got back from Vietnam there werent any women his age left to date.

Pastor Flip Benham told a local Alabama radio show on Monday that there was nothing wrong with Moore dating teenage girls.

Judge Roy Moore graduated from West Point and then went on into the service, served in Vietnam and then came back and was in law school. All of the ladies, or many of the ladies that he possibly could have married were not available then, they were already married, maybe, somewhere. So he looked in a different direction and always with the [permission of the] parents of younger ladies. By the way, the lady hes married to now, Ms. Kayla, was a younger woman, Benham said on WAPI 99.5 FM Monday evening. He did that because there is something about a purity of a young woman, there is something that is good, thats true, thats straight and he looked for that.

Moore himself has strenuously denied accusations from multiple women that he made inappropriate sexual advances on them when they were teens including one who says he sexually assaulted her when she was 16 years old and another who says he initiated a sexual encounter with her when she was just 14.

But while Moore said he didnt generally date teen girls when he was in his early 30s during an interview with right-wing host Sean Hannity shortly after the first accuser came forward, he suggested he may have done so after asking their parents permission.

And while he didnt start dating his wife Kayla until she was in her early 20s, hes said that he first spotted her at a dance recital when she was a teen.

Benham, a controversial anti-gay pastor who Moore had onstage to defend him at a campaign rally less than a week ago, seemed to suggest there was nothing wrong with Moore dating teen girls.

And he went on to argue there was nothing wrong with Moore dating a girl as young as 14 with her parents permission though he balked when the radio hosts asked him if he felt the same way about a 10-year-old.

Benhams interview was first noticed nationally by the liberal media watchdog group Right Wing Watch.


Very cool how we've spent 2017 debating things like "were the Confederates good?" "Nazis, how about them?" and "are child molesters okay?"

If I was to parse the logic (I'd rather not, but)

"by the time he got back from Vietnam, all the women had shacked up with the dudes who stayed home"

Which doesn't make sense on a math level, but

It occurs to me that my Dad is roughly Moore's age and my mom is 17 years younger than him, so

Is it?

Go back 3 or 4 decades. Major rock stars were banging young teens and writing fucking songs about it.

Even if pedophilia being "ok" (it's really not for the most part) is being debated that's still a step up from where things stood not so long ago.
