White House White House Broadcasts Blatantly Homophobic Sermon Attended by Mike Pence


I thought that religion and ethics would be the appropriate place to post this story. Actually, it is a story of religion without ethics:

The video, which is still available on the official White House YouTube page, showed Pence promising to “stand strong for the values that you hold dear” while speaking at the Holy City Church of God in Christ in Memphis.

Really Mike.?? Values that who holds strong besides the bigots? It gets worse:

Moments after Pence’s remarks, Bishop Jerry Wayne Taylor launched into a rant about homosexuality.

We have to encourage young men and women to get married,” Taylor said. “It’s a demonic spirit that causes a woman to want to lie with another woman. It’s a demonic spirit that causes a man to be attracted to another man.”
Demonic spirits? Is he serious! Is it appropriate and ethical to spew such hatred and misinformation about fellow human beings? This is the sort a rhetoric that gets LGBT people killed

And the lies:

Taylor claimed that gay people were “trying to destroy” the principle of marriage and “cut off the reproduction process.”
“Two men can’t have a baby,” he said. “Two women can’t have a baby.

Really jackass, is that why gays fought so hard for the right to marry and adopt children. The fact is that they have broadened the base of the institution of marriage making it stronger. The have children through a variety of means including surrogacy and in just like many heterosexuals do. They have children and are parents. These people are despicable!
Are you a homosexual?
Why do you ask? Looking to hook up?
You seem offended
Not in the least bit. I just asked a question. What are you into?

For someone who claims to be Normative, you sure sound light in the loafers.
 
He is divorced and remarried. That is adultery according to the Bible.
Trump cant undivorce and unremarry, can he?

God forgives sinners if they repent

homosexuals otoh curse God and do not repent

Repenting means you stop what you are doing. Trump and millions of others are committing adultery according to the Bible. The New Testament has more scripture on this than homosexuality.

Why is one acceptable but the other isn't?
According to the law. The old Testament law is dead.

Sure, which is why I mentioned the New Testament.

“Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.

Luke 16:18
That's old Testament law. The law wasn't finished until Jesus died.

Obviously you do not know where Luke is located.

I agree. You're biblically ignorant. The New Covenenat (Testament) has to have shedding of blood. The old testament law was finished when Jesus died on the cross. Please find a Bible study and get educated.

As I said, trump cannot change the past

all he can to stop doing it now

which he has

homosexuals on the other hand continue their behavior

He hasn't stopped. You know that though. He is still committing adultery just the same as millions of others every day.
you demanding that Trump do what?

Nothing. I'm wondering why the hypocrisy?
 
But not entitled to official Whitehouse platform and support for bigotry.

And yet your side seems to believe that disgusting, dangerous, immoral sexual deviants are entitled to official support from the White House and the government.

Just one more datum that proves that nearly everywhere that political controversies align with clear matters of good versus evil, you LIbErals/Democraps are consistently found solidly on the side of evil.
 
Sadly, we have been trained to worship the received interpretation of Scripture rather than the overarching narrative of Scripture embodied in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Just as we have been trained to worship the Bible as the word of God more than Jesus as the divine Word of God. Is our faith so fragile that to admit we have been wrong in one area necessarily pulls a string that undoes all the rest of our faith? Is our faith really a house of cards?

3 words for the church in 2019: ‘we were wrong’ – Baptist News Global

The Episcopals and Congregationalists don't see it as sinful, and neither do the Presbyterians. And there are a whole host of factional churches within Catholicism, the Baptists, and others that accept gay people and gay marriage, as well. Take a look at the list.

I'm not saying you should change your beliefs because these churches did, but in this day and age, there are a lot more churches than you might expect who now welcome gays.

Exactly what Paul warned against in 2 Timothy 4:3-4

3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Homosexuality is a disgusting practice

the preacher is entitled to his opinion just the same as you are
The Bible concurs with the preacher as well..

Yeah, well Leviticus says a lot of things we ignore, including this one, Marion, which you have bragged so often about violating:
18 “‘If a man has sexual relations with a woman during her monthly period, he has exposed the source of her flow, and she has also uncovered it. Both of them are to be cut off from their people.
All of those silly rules of the old testament make no sense now but they did at the time.
 
That was the grown priests, not gays. The gays are pedophiles thing is completely unfounded and has been for many decades. Try to keep up.

Homosexuals make up less than 4% of the population, yet almost half of children who are sexually abused are boys.

So who is sexually abusing little boys? It sure as Hell isn't heterosexual men. By definition, a heterosexual man, if he was a pedophile, would only be interested in molesting little girls, not boys.

When less than 4% of the population is producing almost half of the child molesters, you have to know that there is something very wrong with that 4%.

This, exactly. No American is required to embrace any ideology they loathe. Stop proselytizing your sexual preference and you won't have to run around screaming all day with your pants on fire.
Who exactly is it that is proselytizing? LGBT people just want to live their lives. They leave other alone to live and believe as they wish. The religious zealots want to tell others how to live
You are so behind the times. Gays leaving others alone to live as they wish is so last century.
 
Bigotry is a disgusting practice and neither you or the preacher is entitled to engage in it

If you were talking about genuine bigotry, I'd agree with you completely. But you're not.

Everyone here knows that when you speak of “bigotry”, that what you are really talking about is just basic decency, sanity, and common sense. Those are what you find disgusting.
