Paula White got exposed as having an affair with the Amer. evangelical leader Benny Hinn, coming out of an EU hotel. I believe both were married to someone else at the time. As the religious say, 'the soul is willing but the flesh is weak... Keep tithing ....
"Despite their success, religion in American society is in decline." Would it be dissonant to say, here, "Please God?"

Fighting over who has the better imaginary friend is bad enough, but public religiosity is just gross.
