Disgraced Black Pastor, Eddie Long's Services to be Streamed Live by Local Media, As He Speaks to Congregation

For those of you who can't get enough of this gay sex scandal with Bishop Eddie L. Long, you'll be glad to hear his 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. services will be streamed by 11 Alive News and other news media. True to form, his love affair with the cameras will extend to his darkest hour, when he musters up the courage to speak to his congregants Sunday. Be sure to tune in to www.11alive.com, www.myfoxatlanta.com, www.wsbtv.com and I am sure CNN will carry it live as well. With that said, why does Eddie L. Long have black diamonds in the church? He is vain and arrogant, much like many black pastors of mega-churches across the United States. I would venture to say, Long isn't the only black or white pastor engaging in inappropriate behavior. There's a saying, if you live in a glass house, don't throw stones. All pastors across this country are now on notice. What's done in the dark will come to light.

It should be noted that he had a telephone conference Friday to speak to parishioners nationwide and did not say he was innocent. Had that been me and I was innocent of all the accusations, that would have been one of the first things I would have said, but you know the true will be revealed sooner or later. Here's an excerpt of what he said during the call:

Long said he was in the middle of a battle. He spoke in his own words for the first time since the allegations broke. "We will arise through this situation, and go forward, and we are moving forward," Long told other pastors.

"I have never dealt with anything like this before. I have been under attack before, but everything else has been different levels and different challenges," Long continued. Never once did Long say he was innocent, but he said the truth would be revealed, and that he is praying for his accusers."Know that I am also praying for the families and the young men who are accusing. I always operate in the spirit of love, and we are going to move through this," he said.

Right Bishop, you are under attack and one of your own choosing, I might add. Let's see what he says tomorrow, where he is expected to step down, according to Bossip. His church's motto is "Taking Authority," and I hope he will live up to that when he speaks on Sunday. He needs to step down and take care of this mess, whether through settlements, if proven true, or counter lawsuits of his own, if these salacious allegations are untrue. Either way, Eddie L. Long is a diminished man and he needs to "sit down" and deal with this.
