I need a better source than that. “Rawstory”? Never head of them! I spent the past 3 days on Reddit and I didn’t see any posts regarding this! Stop posting “news” from media outlets with questionable reliability! You’re only creating panic!
There’s literally a video in the article.
That is not what I asked for. I asked for a better source.
The video is the source.
But who recorded and provided the video? What was their hidden agenda? /s
Look, rawstory is a rag, no question. But they literally embedded the video of the sermon. Literally a video of the events in question.
You can hardly argue they’re misrepresenting things when you can literally see the thing yourself.
Like, what better source than the actual video of the event could you possibly want?
Someone really should investigate that preacher because there is a near 100% chance he is a pedophile.
Well that or seral killer.

That sounds like a pretty safe spot for it.
Yep. Let’s check his fridge, freezer, basement, phone, Google search history and hard drive(s), stat.
Right, pick and choose the parts of the Bible that you like. That way its exactly as cruel as you want it to be…
They are highly selective. Fuck that red letter shit, I want to hate my fellow human beings, where are those passages? Also, I’ll ignore all the dietary laws because something something “new covenant”.
LOL.
and if you don’t like it make your own coughKJVcough version.
King James, bitch!
With blackjack and hookers right?
do you even need a bible?
Yes, how do I pick and choose the parts I like if I dont have a bible?!?
Is that the Queen James edition?
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.
reminder: these fascists assholes are not human. they give up all humanity when they actively choose to become or remain within this trump nazi cult. so when we say “nazis are not human” we are not dehumanizing them; they did it to themselves.
these fuckwits need prison. all of them.
They are human. Hatred and cruelty is part of who we as humans are. The better among us are supposed to keep the monsters in check. We failed.
History is a constant and never ending litany of such “failure”, and we NEVER learn. What’s your backup plan?
You’re right, it’s inevitable. The fascist US will be looked back on with disdain as fascist Germany is, there will be reforms to be better, then in a few generations someone will do this shit all over again (assuming we don’t kill ourselves off with nuclear war and/or climate change). All you can do is be the best person you can for those around you.
There is no final check on monstrosity. You failed. Accepting your personal limits is healthy. However, there is still plenty of we’s attempting to check the monsters.
Indeed, they are human, and possibly under the right (wrong) circumstances some of us would exhibit some of the same traits. But we’re at a point that for us to keep being human for a while longer, they have to stop being human forever.
i mean sure in meatspace terms they are physically human but they have done irreparable harm to their internal humanity by supporting this ideology. It’s not just that I “disagree” with fascism (and capitalism and nazism and zionism, among other things) but it’s that there are provable choices these cohorts have made that have done far more harm, even to themselves, than ever imaginable.
I don’t think these are technically nazis. Nazis have a political purpose for which they do the things they do. These folks don’t have a purpose or an agenda besides murderlust en powerhunger. Nazis are evil as a byproduct, a side hustle. These folks are evil as their core business.
true, they’re worse. they’re capitalists.
Same/same
That is being a Nazi. Finding an “other” to blame all your problems on is central to the idea. If they let up on this for a moment, they’d have to solve actual problems, and they don’t know how to do that.
Nah, they need to be executed. If it’s legal for them to say gay people should be executed, it’s legal for me to say they should be executed.
Never mind that the story they are referencing is about the importance of hospitality. It would be more accurate to say that the Bible is saying to kill ICE agents.
It doesn’t matter what it really says. They’ll claim it says whatever they want it to say, and then they’ll use that as an excuse for any atrocity they like.
They haven’t actually read the story if Sodom and Gomorrah, they’ve only had it explained to them by people they outsource critical thought to.
I mean, what’s the big deal? The church (theirs of course) and the State were never supposed to actually be separate in a secular nation with something as clear as the First Amendment. The Founders with the likes of Jefferson who had a tenuous relationship with xtianity so very obvs meant this place to be JESUSLAND.
Also, it’d be the STATE doing the murdering, you guys! It’d be a righteous and lawful murdering, because Jebus.
From the Passion narrative according to John (John 18)
29 So Pilate came out to them and asked, “What charges are you bringing against this man?”
30 “If he were not a criminal,” they replied, “we would not have handed him over to you.”
31 Pilate said, “Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.”
“But we have no right to execute anyone,” they objected.
Literally the exact same method that the Jewish religious authorities used to try to convince the Romans to execute Jesus because they weren’t allowed to execute people.
(Note: this is not meant to be antisemitic, just contextual, though the Jews’ role in the execution of Jesus has been and is still used to justify antisemitism)
The shit that modern day religious people do might actually scare me into belief that there’s a Satan somewhere giggling his horns off.
Twist: Satan may just be the “good” guy…
Burn it
How very loving and christian of them! /s
Anyone that couldn’t tell you were being sarcastic isn’t worth your time.
Just like jesus taught.
“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.
But God didn’t gaf about killing. If these people think god is telling them to, they will. That’s what genesis is all about.
You’re thinking of republican jesus.

Holy mother of Adblock. Can’t even see. I’ll check this at home on my laptop.
Wasn’t that a Depeche Mode song?
Your own
Personal
Jackass…
Well yeah, Jesus had first hand experience in the state enforcing the death penalty.
First hands, then feet.
And he turned out just fine!!
We need to sever church from state permanently.
We can never let the religious orginize as a political group after the pendulum swings back.
Haven’t they already done that? That’s essentially what the 2025 Republican Party is.
Agreed. Take any overt religious symbols or phrases off of every government building, remove god from my money, pledge, and license plate.
Just get rid of the creepy-ass pledge completely please

Time to execute Christians.
They already have enough of a persecution fetish.
Some USians are really fucked in their heads.
Sickening. Standard fair for the MAGAt movement.
He probably takes it up the bum himself. Deflection tactics.
Fascism everywhere.
