The town is mad that Orel loves his dog more than Jesus. They confront Orel as a mob and discuss putting the dog down but nothing is shown. Still terrible, but not graphic.

You can make that plural lol
The gym teacher has a one-sided obsession with the main character's dad throughout the entire show, though it's mostly light-hearted.
Then in season 2 it's revealed that the pastor character had a female stalker who stole his sperm in order to bear his child.
Finally in season 3, we see implication that one of the characters had a similar obsession with a serial rapist.

FREQUENTLY. Orel gets spanked with a belt in almost every single episode. It's often made to be funny, but Orel is always visibly fearful.

A child is invited into a sex dungeon. He walks around and watches several adults participating in fetish activity. The same child is later shown to start getting masochistic pleasure from hurting himself. He has a wet dream about God spanking him, and is implied to be aroused by the idea of his dad spanking him with a belt.
