MacArthur Agrees That Driscoll Is Disqualified

Saw this on a couple of websites and wanted to post it here. I've been saying this for a while now (here's a recent example , here, and here), but perhaps if John MacArthur says it, some will listen:

"When a speaker deliberately arouses lusts that cannot possibly be righteously fulfilled in unmarried college students, or when his personal illustrations fail to guard the privacy and honor of his own wife, that is far worse than merely inappropriate. When done repeatedly and with the demeanor of an immature bad-boy, such a practice reflects a major character defect that is spiritually disqualifying. Any man who makes such things the main trademark of his style is quite simply not above reproach. As recently as a decade ago, that point of view would not have raised a peep of controversy."

1Ti 3:2 Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

Not only has Driscoll been disqualifed, but what does it say about a "mature pastor" who's been "in the ministry" for thirty years, who defends Driscoll as a pastor, friend, and Christian? I'm talking about John Piper? Does the rebuke of Driscoll by MacArthur also not extend to Piper as well? After all, he justifies Driscoll's behavior and then unashamedly, even defiantly offers Potty Mouth Pastor to his Desiring God fans.
