First this man tried to destroy Barack Obama's chances of being nominated, now he has destroyed a woman's family and job. I am sorry, but I have low tolerance for men that use their power in the church to seduce women.

Elizabeth Payne, 37, said she had a steamy sexual affair with the controversial, man of the cloth while she was an executive assistant at a church headed by a popular Reverend Jeremiah Wright.

When word of the unholy alliance got out, Payne's husband dumped her, and she was canned from the plum job at Friendship-West Baptist Church, she told The Post. Now, it does take two to tango so I am not going to say she was not at fault for her own predicament as well, however when you have a marriage that is in trouble the pastor is suppose to give you words of encouragement, not encourage you to lay down with him/her/.

Payne's husband, Fred Payne, 64, said he learned of the affair in late February, when he discovered e-mails between his wife and Wright.

"There must have been about 80 of them, back and forth," he said. "Wright said things like he was going to leave his wife for Elizabeth."
