Jesus fucking Christ.

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.

Whenever I encounter someone advocating for the Ten Commandments, I always ask them to name all ten. Nobody ever gets them all.

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.

Now we know what the camps are really for.

[–] pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 week ago

Well Hitler also sent lgbt folk to the slaughterhouse

[–] Zink@programming.dev 15 points 1 week ago

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.

Just like jesus taught.

Time to execute Christians.

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.

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

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Tf? No it hasn't. People have been persecuting gays for hundreds of years, and those churches are still going strong. Look at... well, every single church.

Just remember folks, religion isn't spread by the quality of its truth, but rather the quality of its violence.

[–] Luouth@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

He probably takes it up the bum himself. Deflection tactics.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Also, phrasing!

"come on our streets"

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

They lost steam when Fred Phelps died. Also they became normalized. But largely they were pissing off everyone on purpose. They protested the funerals of both gay people and soldiers

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

These people need a ton of therapy.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago
