The State of American Christianity in 2026: Protect their Pedophile Leaders in Churches and Rejoice in the Massacre of Iranian Women and Children

Robert Preston Morris, the disgraced founder and former pastor of Texas megachurch Gateway Church, was just released from prison yesterday (March 31, 2026) after only serving 6 months of a 10-year prison term after he pleaded guilty to five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child for a four-year pattern of abusing a 12-year-old child in his congregation. Morris formerly served on President Trump’s evangelical advisory board. I am happy to hear that Cindy Clemishire, the victim in this case, is not stopping now, but is pursuing other members of the churches and Christian organizations that protected this pedophile, because seldom does a pastor, priest, or other Christian leader commit these horrible crimes alone, without the collusion of others to cover up their sex abuses. When Pastors or Priests or other Christian leaders are caught, they are usually just transferred to another church somewhere, as we have been documenting for over a decade now here at Health Impact News. This is the sad state of Christianity in America today, where American Christians will hide and protect their pedophile leaders, while cheering the mass killing of women and children in Iran, and even praying for their destruction in their churches. As I have reported for so many years now, these pedophiles in Christian churches are so common now, that any American Christian church that does NOT have pedophiles in their ranks, would be extremely rare. I just did an Internet search on "pastor arrest sex abuse", and limited the search to just the past month, and there were more results than I could possibly reference to in this article, as it would take me many hours. Here are a few of them from the past few weeks, as you can see, they cover all varieties of American Christians, from Evangelicals to Catholics to home-school-home-churches (including a famous homeschool family with their own TV show) to Amish and Mennonites.

Pedophile Billionaires are not the Only Ones being Exposed by Victims – Christian Pedophile Pastors are also being Exposed by Their Victims

The Jeffrey Epstein victims of child sex abuse gained national exposure last month when they all met in Washington D.C. with Congressman Thomas Massie, Congressman Ro Khann, and Congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene. Some of them came forward in public for the first time. Jeffrey Epstein is not the only person who has trafficked and sexually abused children, however, as it is commonplace in American Churches as well. And now many victims of child sex abuse by pastors are also coming forward, some of them decades later after the abuse occurred, while these pedophile pastors continued their roles in churches, sexually abusing and trafficking who knows how many other children. Often times this is done in partnership with the U.S. Government as State-licensed Foster parents, giving them access to an entire pipeline of children to abuse. One story that brought national headline news recently is the guilty plea of Pastor Robert Morris, the founder of the Texas megachurch, Gateway Church, who sexually abused a young girl back in the 1980s. How many other children did he sexually abuse during the past 40 years before he was caught? Morris is an evangelical pastor who served on President Donald Trump's Evangelical Advisory Board in 2016. NBC News has run an investigative report this year called "PASTORS AND PREY" where many victims of pedophile pastors have come forward, some of them decades later, to talk about how they were sexually abused by pastors in the Assemblies of God, the world's largest Pentecostal denomination. Some of these pastors raped and sexually abused children for decades before anyone dared to stop them, demonstrating just how much influence and power these pastors hold in their churches. And here is a recent story about the pastor of a California megachurch who is being sued for child sex abuse in Romania. As I reported earlier this week, Evangelical Christians are known for setting up orphanages in Romania to sexually traffick children, and Erika Kirk started an orphanage there when she was just a teenager, working together with the U.S. military. Evangelical Christians, Zionism, and child sex abuse - they all happen together. Welcome to the Christian United States of America, run by pedophile billionaires and politicians, and Christian pedophile pastors and priests.
