A youth leader at a Texas megachurch has been arrested for allegedly inducing young girls to send him explicit inappropriate images.

Prosecution documents in Abilene, Texas, state that 24-year-old Charles Goff admitted to police that he went on social media and solicited nude photos from girls aged 14 and 15. They also allege that Goff met with a fellow church member and admitted his wrongdoing.

Goff was a youth volunteer at Beltway Park Church, a large baptist megachurch in Abilene in north central Texas with two campuses in the city and a congregation of nearly 5,000 people every week.

    It’s amazing that so many parents who should know better don’t think that age-appropriate sex education in schools is a good idea because “it’s up to the parents” (who then never teach it).

    In my opinion- “Bad touch” is something every small child should understand and it should be reaffirmed in kindergarten, maybe even first grade. By age 8, a child should understand the basics of human reproduction. By age 12 they should understand the basics of contraception and STDs.
