That Bishop Eddie L. Long’s exclusive group of handpicked teenage boys within his New Birth Missionary Baptist Church is called the LongFellows Youth Academy should have been warning enough as to what the famously homophobic bishop was really up to. Four of these eponymous LongFellows have now revealed that the bishop not only provided housing for them, he also frequently visited them for sessions of kissing, oral sex or masturbation.
According to The New York Times, in addition to his church, which has a swelling membership of 25,000, the affluent bishop also owns “a private school and the Samson’s Health and Fitness Center, where he holds court and pumps iron with young people.” I guess that’s where, when the opportunity arises, pumping iron and pressing flesh all go into a good workout. I bet the sybaritic bishop was probably against the Stimulus Act, too.
