This scandal show the immense power of Christian culture.
I had resolved not to publish any videos on the Jeffrey Epstein scandals. Every news outlet I subscribe to has had endless articles on Epstein, his shenanigans, and the people caught up in his web of evil. But I am breaking my silence on this tawdry tale because at one very important point it overlaps with Christian culture and reveals, once again, the far reaching influence of Jesus Christ on people who do not worship Him, glorify Him, or thank Him. They are utterly unaware of His impact on their lives.
So, where is the overlap? This is a crisis for one reason and one reason only. Epstein conspired to have sex with underage girls—pedophilia. And the concept of “underage” is totally a product of Christian sexual ethics. We have demanded the protection of—primarily—girls under the age of 18 although the age of consent varies. But almost every nation in the world has one and this is due to the far reaching power of Christ. Do you think Roman emperors or Greek aristocrats thought relations with underage girls was scandalous?
This is one more example of Christian power reigning over people who have no Christian faith.
