I was raised a christian, still am. I was taught and read in the bible that your hearts content matters as much as your deeds. Just because he has never done it doesn't mean that the will and capacity should be ignored. That desire is as abominable to God as the deed.
And to Ustwo, Swaggart may not be part of the CC itself, but he part of the evangelical movement that believes in the same things. His being damaged goods keeps him out of membership. His beliefs differ little from people like Falwell and Robertson who have publicly professed that we were attacked because we fell out of favor with God over "sins" like homosexuality, feminism, liberalism etc.
