Megachurch leader in mega-sized sex scandal - AP
80-year-old Georgia man slept with brother’s wife, fathered her child

DECATUR, Ga. - The 80-year-old leader of a suburban Atlanta megachurch is at the center of a sex scandal of biblical dimensions: He slept with his brother's wife and fathered a child by her.

Members of Archbishop Earl Paulk's family stood at the pulpit of the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit at Chapel Hill Harvester Church a few Sundays ago and revealed the secret exposed by a recent court-ordered paternity test.

In truth, this is not the first — or even the second — sex scandal to engulf Paulk and the independent, charismatic church. But this time, he could be in trouble with the law for lying under oath about the affair.

Sounds like the whole family is Randy in the Lord... Good thing they'll still have thousands of followers to fill their pockets Sunday after Sunday.
