Thread: North Carolina Pastor calls for the deaths of gays and lesbians

Typical of religion. The christians will continuously say that the bible is about love, god is about love.

In reality, it breeds hate.

This is just another a-typical pastor going after a group, for no logical reason. But this over line. He is calling for the deaths of homosexuals. Stand proud christians, this is your brethren.

His mouth's not moving in time with the words... I don't think he said any of that.

But even if he did, he called for homosexuals to be put in separate fences and fed regularly, but pointed out they would soon die out since they won't be reproducing.

Not exactly 'CALLING FOR THE DEATH OF GAYS' the title seems to indicate.

I thought he was very respectful to President Obama. Maybe you're expecting too much from a southern preacher?

Indeed, it would appear the fine Christian displayed the loving grace of his god in typical fashion.


"I figured a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers," he says in his sermon, delivered on May 13. "Build a great, big, large fence — 150 or 100 mile long — put all the lesbians in there... Do the same thing for the queers and the homosexuals and have that fence electrified so they can't get out… And you know what, in a few years, they'll die."

Is it really any wonder that with inbred and backwoods ideas such as this that religion in this country is in a decline?

Furthermore, how can this (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*), and he is that, call himself a Christian with such a nasty attitude? His words seem the antithesis of Christian.

Are you okay with this approach? Does it represent Christian love, in your opinion?

Religion in general? I'm inclined to disagree. I would not even say it's typical for Christians.

What you're doing seems no better than someone taking a video of the most extreme example from a Pride celebration and claiming those people are typical of homosexuals.

I wouldn't have said it... nor would I attend the church of any preacher who'd say it.

But regardless, he didn't actually call for anyone's 'death' -- more like wishing gays to be removed from straight society. Not as big a deal as the OP made it out to be.

Not exactly, but...

"Get rid of" may not be the same thing as "we should kill them", but the goal is clear - the extermination of gay people. The fact that that it's through letting them die off rather than intervening to hasten their deaths doesn't really make much difference when the end goal is elimination.

Are we supposed to be mollified by the idea that the people thus deprived of their liberties are being fed?

To me, that seems like nothing more than trying to paint a humane face on an inhumane action.

Yeah, it kind of is.

You see, Christ was all about love, acceptance, forgiveness. Hate the sin, not the sinner, right?

This Christian preacher suggested those sinners, of which we all fit the definition, that he disagrees with be confined until they die out.

Now I understand that in many Christina circles such pathetically disgusting hatred and frothing at the mouth bigotry is acceptable, but there are folks in this world that thin, such things are a "big deal".
