I'm not so sure I'd agree with your statement that he 'holds' the priesthood. Not frowned upon? Assuredly they are, but if they have not fully come to light, then there is nothing you can do. But, you only called the Bishop today, right? He has to work to earn a living, and has lots on his plate, so please be patient in letting him get back to you.

You indicated you didn't save evidence the first time. What about this time?

The behaviors you describe are very typical. The defensiveness, the changing stories (that one about the Bishop is quite laughable!!! silly), the attacking the messenger (best defense is an offense), etc all indicate you are spot on. I interact with a number of people whose spouses have ADD. You would be surprised how much of the time when the husband has ADD there are severe porn addictions, and until the wife obtains irrefutable evidence from the computer, the stream of lies and attacks are never-ending.

Unfortunately, your father can't get help until he acknowledges the fact and quits trying to hide it. Wait and see what the Bishop says, and if not, take your concerns to the Stake President. Contacting each parent would be a mess to avoid IMO. You could get caught up in that in ways you don't want to be.
