In this responsive piece, @roddreher explains RZ's abusive behaviour as follows "that either you must be psychotically double-minded, or you must not really believe in God."

That is too limited a view.

The Ravi Zacharias Implosion - https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/the-ravi-zacharias-implosion/
93% of sex offenders self profess to be religious or very religious.

Those who self profess to be 'very religious' have the most number of victims and have committed the most egregious crimes.

This is a bothersome detail between religiosity/sex offenders we often overlook.
Sex offenders commit their crimes at least in part by engaging in cognitive distortions (i.e. sexual entitlement).

What is SO troubling is that religious offenders include the Almighty in their abusive ruse.

They 'sexualize the sacred,' and so doing, they commit sacrilege.
Cognitive distortions and moral disengagement of sex offenders are well established facts.

Taken from literature on sex offending and children, this same construct applies to all offenders (D'Urso et al. 2019).

(I can't read it would clenching by teeth to press back bile.)
I just took a whole masters degree on what happened to me.

I wish I didn't 'understand' but I had to.

Sex offenders believe they are entitled to do what they do AND they believe God.

Both and, @roddreher.

Both and.
