EPISODE 20: "Reverend"... Pastors, Posers, or Pedophiles?

George von Hilshiemer claimed to be an ordained minister. For a time, he even called himself a Unitarian minister. He was not!

In this episode, I go through his spurious claims and the ways he used the authority often granted to clergy to serve his own ends.

I also talk about a few cases of clergy misconduct in my own denomination. We are probably the least likely of all faith traditions to harbor pedophiles... and, when it happens, we don't cover it up, or protect the abusers as the Catholic church and other institutions have done.

Here are links to the cases I mention:
