Anyone who thinks there isn’t any credibility to the allegations being made against Cosby….are just plain stupid.
As a Christian, I can imagine and I have seen many who claim to be Christians, stating that unless these allegations are 100 % proven, we must not speak about this, we must not believe Cosby may in fact be a serial rapist. We must assume he isn’t and that by default, all these women are lying.
And they will trot out the ‘must have two or more witnesses’ Bible verse, that protects abusers all the time………..when most abusers aren’t going to allow witnesses to their evil acts. And church sociopaths/psychopaths know this and use this to their advantage.
And that attitude is exactly why so much abuse goes on within churches.
I see on social media…….the vilification of the victims. No empathy for what they have endured. As many in society, don’t.
As many in churches, don’t.
The pathological protection of perpetrators/abusers/rapists…….so evident.
This Cosby story…………is no longer just non celebrities, or white women making allegations…..it is now celebrities and black women coming forward. Intelligent women who don’t have anything to gain….are coming forward.
26 now, is it?
How many more are there, I wonder?
Decades of abusing women, and there will be others who knew about this and did nothing. Stood by while Cosby treated women as pieces of meat……..and yet had the nerve to tell other black men to ‘pull up their pants.’
It is so interesting how these abusers, so often project their own deep issues, onto others……..I’ve seen this occur. A church minister.
Preaching to others about what they should be doing……..while leading a life of evil acts themselves…….and then lying, denying and acting outraged that anyone would expose them and suggest what they have done, is not okay. And people still defending them.
Sounds familiar…

He even lied about his education..
Cosby’s masters and doctorate degrees were similarly granted thanks to a reportedly starstruck dean who lured him to UMass Amherst’s education program, where Cosby was allowed a very flexible attendance schedule—which, according to one member of his doctoral committee, Reginald Damerell, consisted of “at least one weekend seminar.” It also gave him course credit for appearing on TV shows like The Electric Company.
Ultimately, Damerell says Cosby’s doctorate was bestowed on him by a committee whose sole full-board “dissertation” meeting took place during a “sumptuous meal” for all the board members, hosted by Cosby at the sprawling, 16-room, restored farmhouse estate he’d purchased near campus. And of course, it was all based on a thesis that was, essentially, a report on how great Bill Cosby’s own television show was. And now, according to Simon, he didn’t even write that.

That doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. These types easily lie……they are masters at it.
