When asked to respond to Falco's inflammatory remarks, the church said in a statement that the preacher was "only calling for the death penalty and suicide for the actual sodomites (homosexuals). The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands."

This is the "reserved" and "compromise" position in their eyes.

As an LGBTQ+ American, I urge such evangelicals to execute themselves.

"The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands."

Ah yes, Jesus was famously pro-death penalty as long as only the state was enforcing it.

Someone really should investigate that preacher because there is a near 100% chance he is a pedophile.

"It's a good thing that our current situation couldn't get any worse."

Situation: [gets worse]

Normal people don't look at others and think "they want our children [sexually]." 🤮 I'm unaware of any proof that LGBTQ+ folks prey on kids at higher rates than cishet predators. They need to check this guy's computer and keep him away from children...

Remove their tax-exempt status. The distinct separation of church and state should prevent this murderous group of sycophants from tax-free status.

Did Jesus ever say a single word about LGBTQIA+ issues ever?

Morgan Freeman voice: He didn't.

Historically, the demographic most likely to sexually assault children is straight men.

Does that mean we should kill all the straight men?

How about we execute evangelicals?

Would that help?

"Christianity is a modern, tolerant, peace loving religion! Not like those other ones!"

5 minutes in to Christian theocratic control

"KILL THE UNDESIRABLES! THEY OFFEND THE CHRISTIAN GOD'S BLESSED EYES!"

The Satanic Temple should just take the tax-exempt status and start endorsing candidates lmfao

How long until it's relieved he's paying for gay prostitutes or touching kids?

We often point out how modern christians would crucify Jesus again today, but they also hate listening to what he said in the Bible. Take the plank out of your own eyes you sorry excuses for people.

The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands.

But, you know, if someone were to take matters in their own hands, we'll just wash out hands in innocence and act like we didn't do anything

In a sermon titled, "Pray the Gay Away," Stephen Falco, an evangelical preacher with the Sure Foundation Baptist Church, yelled from the pulpit, "They're all a bunch of f-----, that want to walk around, come on our streets, and demand our children. And we should look them in the eye and say, 'No, you're not going to have our children!'"

What a disgusting message. I wouldn’t be sad if this sack of shit got hit by a bus.

Evangelicals are Christofascists

Period

These fuckos should go into one of their classrooms and view the state mandated list of commandments for what NUMBER FUCKING SIX is. These are not real Christians, or real Catholics, or even real people. If you lack the most basic tenets of humanity how do you call yourself a human? You KNOW if anybody else stepped up to the mic and said all evangelical leaders who shamelessly, GLEEFULLY exploit and extort personal wealth from their 'flock' while rocking a pure white demonic smile should be parted with the entirety of their skin and thrown in salt pits in the desert to await their God, they would probably have some shit to say. What's good for the Goose and such...

Edit: religious illiteracy showing.

Now we know what the camps are really for.

It's interesting, and by interesting I mean horrifying, that these outspoken hateful religious leaders assume that just because gay people give in to the homosexual desires everybody obviously has, they will also give in to the pedophilia that everybody obviously has.

History has shown that churches such as these often find themselves in ashes after all is said and done. History has shown this.

That's 15 minutes from my house. Fuck this state.

Place your best now about the odds that Trump tries to make being LGBTQ a capital offense. I'm going with 10%, which is already too high for me.

Well, I hereby urge Trump to execute Stephen Falco, the evangelical preacher with the Sure Foundation Baptist Church. He believes in a demonic version of God that creates LGBT people and them judges them harshly for it. He in fact does not actually worship God, he worships the Devil. And he will burn in Hell for eternity for it. He's therefore a heretic and demon worshiper, and he deserves to be executed for blaspheming the good name of the Creator. I believe the traditional punishment is burning at the stake.

If he can advocate my execution, then I can damn well advocate for his.

Christians are such wonderful people, aren't they? So tolerant.

My supervisor is a lesbian who proudly introduces people to her wife, and she is as rabid a Trumper as I've ever met. I've tried to introduce her to the "Leopards Eating People's Faces Party" concept but she doesn't understand the point. She has somehow concluded that it is Republicans who have fought for and won gay rights (like the right to marry that she's a beneficiary of) while Democrats want to take those rights away. I don't have any idea how somebody gets to a mental state like that - I can't accuse her of drinking the Kool-Aid because no Republican media says anything like that.

She really hates black people so her basic conservative stance is at least understandable. Except that she talks loudly about how she wants to bang the black guy that delivers our water bottles.

This is something that will eventually Happen. It is already is happening “underground” they just use loopholes to get people killed. Look at the king of hill guy. That’s not just a one off thing. It’s social manipulation. It’s not just happening to them. They know what they are doing. We are already in a social psychological civil war, and it’s not random crazies… it’s people manipulated to go crazy, whether it’s someone murdering, suicides, or pressure that makes someone commit crimes so they end up in prison. This is America.

I'm surprised we haven't heard from the Westboro Baptist Church lately. Maybe they think their schtick has become normalized.

One day, sooner than later, we're going to have to deal with the American Taliban.
