The woman who accused Southlake-based Gateway Church’s founding pastor Robert Morris of sexually abusing her when she was a child is suing the megachurch, Morris and his wife for defamation and failing to report the alleged abuse.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday in Dallas County by Cindy Clemishire and her father, pointed to Morris' previous statement acknowledging the abuse claims, where he referred to Clemishire as a “young lady.”

Morris’ statement, which was sent to Gateway staff shortly after the allegation against Morris became public last year, indicated he stepped out of ministry as part of a “restoration process” after Clemishire first reported the alleged abuse to her parents in the late 1980s.

There are religious people who believe physical abuse makes kids stronger. There are those that practice such beliefs.

It is important to highlight their crimes and make sure they do not get to hide behind fancy suits or speeches to abuse kids.

Anyways, without further ado, Mr. Robert Morris everyone :
