Can anybody tell us what separates this "Man of God" from the bigoted Clerics of the Faith of Islam? I'm really, really curious.
Make no mistake about it. This raving maniac would be among the first to welcome our country embracing theocratic rule and leading the charge. Certainly there are many who would follow.

RAW STORY - A Baptist pastor in Tempe, Arizona called for the mass extermination of LGBT people on Sunday in a sermon entitled “AIDS: The Judgement of God.”
In the sermon, which was uploaded to YouTube on Monday from Faithful Word Baptist Church, Pastor Steven Anderson said that God has ordered in the scriptures that gays should be killed, and that if humanity wants to have an “AIDS-free world by Christmas,” he said, that’s what should be done.
“Turn to Leviticus 20:13,” he says in the video, “because I actually discovered the cure for AIDS.”
“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them,” Anderson read aloud.
“And that, my friend, is the cure for AIDS,” he said. “It was right there in the Bible all along — and they’re out spending billions of dollars in research and testing. It’s curable — right there. Because if you executed the homos like God recommends, you wouldn’t have all this AIDS running rampant.”
At another point in his sermon, Anderson had a foot-stomping, shouting tantrum about the idea that people can be LGBT and Christian. There will never be any gays in his church, he said, not ever, ever, ever.
“No homos will ever be allowed in this church as long as I am pastor here,” he insisted. “Never! Say ‘You’re crazy.’ No, you’re crazy if you think that there’s something wrong with my ‘no homo’ policy.”
Make no mistake about it. This raving maniac would be among the first to welcome our country embracing theocratic rule and leading the charge. Certainly there are many who would follow.

IMO, he needs to spend '40 days in the Wilderness' and re-read the beatitudes. ..and perhaps switch to used car sales.

ReplyDeleteWatch within a few years, we will find out that Pastor Steven Anderson is really gay.
ReplyDeleteSeems to happen a lot in situations like this...
...and sometimes I am asked why I no longer go to church, believe in God. I tell 'em I believe in trees. Once told a minister, a nice one that I do like, that I was a Pagan. He looked me in the eye and said, "Sometimes I think I am a Pagan,too." Then I really liked the guy.
ReplyDeleteTrue wisdom though comes from "liking" those with faith and views different from your own, though...
ReplyDeletedmarks, so we should "like" those whose faith and views are that we must think like them, even the extremist views that exist in all faiths ;-)
ReplyDeleteHm, got me thinking about the application of "liking" with respect to all political views and ideologies. I'll contemplate on this over a fine single malt Scotch this evening.
RN: It's the line between a typical "Coexist" bumper sticker, and those versions that include the swastika or hammer-and-sickle among the symbols. I assume a rational person knows where to draw this line...
ReplyDeleteSafe assumption. I think. But given what I see on the interlubes I begin to question.
DeleteI see you addressed 1/2 the irrational equation below.
Half?
DeleteWell there is, ahem, the other kind of irrational. However, due to site policy no mention of, or reference to, shall be made.
Deletei know what you mean. I slipped a reference in there to that, too. Feel free to delete!
DeleteAnd yes, I am not meaning to put up with the likes of Lisa and toilet-boy....
