Because it's real damn difficult to find a picture of a female in a sexy vicar's costume...
The Church of England has barred the Reverend Teresa Davis from practicing her craft for 12 years, following a tribunal that found her to have violated her vows.
The Reverend made the terrible mistake-- not of going to France and participating in a swingers weekend, not of showing up drunk at her church on a Sunday-- rather, for telling everyone she could get ahold of about all of it...
Mrs Davies was said to have told two church colleagues at a Christmas lunch in
2006 that she and her husband had spent holidays without their children in
the South of France, in an area that she said was noted for “the casual
exchange of sexual partners”.
The tribunal also heard that Mrs Davies, 37, and her husband had posted under
the name “Tess and Mick, Daventry” on swinging websites.
Having sobered up enough to have a moment of clarity, Davies told another member of the clergy that maybe she had said too much. And indeed, although she admitted to the whole thing while facing the London tribunal, they were unforgiving.
The tribunal said: “Clergy who commit sexual misconduct have to be dealt with
firmly and in a way which would protect those who could be harmed if the
respondent were otherwise allowed to remain in ministry.”
It added that she still had no appreciation of the seriousness of the findings
against her, or of the damage caused. [Times Online]
Come on over stateside, Reverend. They'll love you in Middle America...
