Parishioner 'left due to picky women'


From Australia-

A parishioner who claims a Sydney pastor made him out to be a "sexual predator" says he left his previous church because the women were "picky", "cold" and "bitter about being unmarried".

Divorced management consultant Bruce Haddon, 59, is suing Reverend Dominic Steele of St Aidan's Anglican Church and church counsellor and Network Ten journalist Evan Batten over an email sent in February 2008.

He says the email defamed him by implying he sexually harassed female members of the Annandale congregation, touching and kissing them and introducing "inappropriate" topics at Bible study groups.

Mr Haddon says it made him out to be a "sexual predator".

But he claims the email was really written because he'd become unpopular with the group, also known as Christians in the Media, because "his doctrines were starting to evolve away from the strict Sydney (diocese) beliefs".

During cross examination in the NSW Supreme Court on Tuesday, Mr Haddon said he had left his previous church, St Thomas' Anglican Church in his home suburb of North Sydney, because he was looking for "more progressive" sermons.
