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!'
Statistically, a child is at greater risk of being sexually abused by a preacher than a member of the LGBT community
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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)
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.
"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.
Well yeah, Jesus had first hand experience in the state enforcing the death penalty.
First hands, then feet.
And he turned out just fine!!
You’re thinking of republican jesus.

Wasn't that a Depeche Mode song?
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.

Religion is incompatible with civilised life.
Religion is an endemic mental illness. I'd say people should keep it to themselves and once they leave their house, I don't want to hear anything about it, or it's off to the mental institution.
Be careful, you'll upset the "real christians", who will tell you about how this person is a "fake", because Jesus said "love thy neighbor", and all the other things in the Bible "don't count" for some reason.
No, religion as a concept is incompatible with civilized life. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism etc. all make human life on earth objectively worse. Whether they are the origin or just an outlet for human depravity doesn‘t matter, they all need to be left in the past. Or the past with all its wars and suffering will not leave us.
Like fuck they aren’t.
Tell us you're not paying attention to the rest of the world without telling us you're not paying attention to the rest of the world.
This isn’t a church. It is a PAC that is doing this. If you buy Chick Fil A they are whom you are supporting.
I'm so proud that I've never spent a dollar there.
Is there anything that shows that connection and I could be giving my friends who still eat there?
There isn't, because the source is his ass.
This was a pastor in Indiana during a sermon that was live-streamed on Facebook. So, like, funded by a PAC in what way exactly?
No PAC is mentioned in the article at all, much less a Chick-fil-A backed one. And this isn't even tied to anything that would require any funding anyway.
I'm no Chick-fil-A apologist, but like, the idea that this is some secretive super-PAC that Chick-fil-A is using to fund pastors calling for the death of gay people is some Q-Anon level nonsense.
It's a church.
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.
As the Bible states, "be the bus you wish to see in the world"
Somebody should check this dude's basement.
And hard drives
Projecting again I see.
Dude’s totally wanking off out on the street corner.
"No, you're not going to have our children!"
We're too busy not vaccinating them, so they die of preventable diseases, and if they're girls, we force them into marriages with men much older them to purify the Evangelical bloodlines. I hope there's a special section just for them waiting in hell if it exists.
I'd drive the bus.
I would. Too quick.
Oh come on now. Wouldn’t you be just a bit sad for the bus?
As an LGBTQ+ American, I urge such evangelicals to execute themselves.
As a hopelessly straight American, I second the motion.
Based, you allies are wonderful <3
We should execute those who wield influence who make homophobic or transphobic comments in this way, by public hanging, immolation, or firing squad. I will literally vote for this.
It almost feels like they're going out of their way to bring the LGBTQ community to the point of kill or be killed.
If you want to censor them, you don't have to murder them.
Maybe put them in prison. They can only read the Bible or pro-LGBT literature, eat only vegan food, go nude or wear sackcloth, and given a choice between breaking rocks or participating in group therapy conducted by psychologists and psychiatrists who are openly gay, TG, and/or Otherkin.
You would think a death cult would.
that's where you're wrong. they want OTHER people dead.
That they go to North Korea and denounce the dictator, go to Afghanistan and denounce Islam as a heresy, or to Juarez and denounce, by name, cartel leaders as parasites who hate Mexicans more than Trump supporters.
How about we execute evangelicals?
Would that help?
Yes
I mean, soon it's gonna be us or them.
How about we execute evangelicals?
We don't.
​
Would that help?
No, it wouldn't.
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.
Simplify it. She's just a dumb racist bitch
I'm going to use slightly more words than you but she's a modern day conservative: Her special circumstances are "okay" however other peoples are not. She should be protected, others should not.
So, much of what you stated makes my head spin, maybe it’s due to the fact that it’s early but I highly doubt that’s the reason.
I was so confused until i read that she's racist.
One day, sooner than later, we're going to have to deal with the American Taliban.
Y'all Qaeda
Based out of Howdy Arabia
It goes deep. Just calling them the American Taliban makes them look simple. It’s bigger than that. This isn't a small group of terrorists. This is half of the country and people from other countries. People aren’t ready for this war. In any way… mentally… weapons…
Remember that the Afghan Taliban isn’t simple either.
You mean, deal with them...again.
There's no love like an Evangelical Christian fatwa. It's what Jesus would do, amirite?
these people quote whatever the fuck pleases them today.
the bible literally says to feed the poor and house the homeless and these fucks don't mention it with a word
it's literally just a way to manipulate lots of people in whatever way the rulers prefer
Feed the poor, house the homeless, care for the sick, welcome immigrants, have compassion for prisoners, do not judge, etc etc
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Leviticus#Chapter_20
Leviticus
Chapter 20
33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.
34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
Why single out gays? It also says to kill adulterers, stubborn children, women who aren't virgins when they marry, people who work on the Sabbath, and mediums who talk to the dead.
Because it's about justifying their bigotry, not following the bible.
So according to the Bible, Trump should be stoned (as well as those with whom he committed adultery).
Yep. And I just found out that this preacher delivered his message on June 29. That's the Sabbath, so we're stoning that fucker first
Child rapists: kill the gays! They hurt children!

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...
As far as I have been able to find, the material published on there being a higher per capita amount of preds in the LGBTQ community have been discredited, and most of these claims come from a small number of papers, largely published years ago, by conservative groups pay
"It's a good thing that our current situation couldn't get any worse."
Situation: [gets worse]
I may be a naive optimist but I do not see it every getting to this point. Even after everything that's been happening, it feels too extreme
All bets are off, man. "It couldn't happen here" is an old and tired refrain, I'm afraid.
Heresy. Full stop. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. That church is run by heretics, and needs to be called out as such.
The red letter texts of Jesus' own teachings take precedent over any conflicting verses, and those teachings say to love thy neighbor as you would yourself.
I seriously hope that church has a nice big flat wall for someone to graffiti.
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.
Unfortunately, say goodbye to removal of tax exempt status: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/us/politics/irs-churches-politics-endorse-candidates.html

Wow. That is garbage.
Thank you for finding and sharing that, no matter how disheartening it is.
"walk around, come on our streets, and demand our children"
someone's projecting
Christians are such wonderful people, aren't they? So tolerant.
There is no hate like Christian love
This comment got me in Facebook jail a couple of years ago.
And they love so much! Can't get enough of their fucking love.
Other Christians don't care for them. From their google reviews:
This church is nothing more than a cult disguised as Christianity. They don’t preach the gospel—they preach fear, control, and manipulation. Instead of leading people to Christ, they demand blind loyalty to their leadership, excommunicate anyone who questions them, and tear down other churches rather than spreading love and grace.
Their toxic, legalistic teachings distort salvation, pushing a works-based doctrine that contradicts Ephesians 2:8-9. They divide families, encouraging members to cut off anyone who doesn’t conform. Instead of strengthening faith, they use spiritual abuse to control people. If you’re looking for a real church that follows Jesus, stay far away from this place.
One Christian criticizing another is just typical inter-sect conflict found in most religions. People who are fundamentally kind or fundamentally cruel will both find and interpret passages to support their views. But because it’s “god’s word” they will always refuse to waiver in the face of logic or common sense.
The problem is that all religion provides fertile ground for both extremists and con artists to grow – in this case both.
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.
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.
it’s people manipulated to go crazy, whether it’s someone murdering, suicides, or pressure that makes someone commit crimes
The Satanic Temple should just take the tax-exempt status and start endorsing candidates lmfao
Then they’d just as quickly lose that status… rules for the but not for me.
Is this the peace and love they’re always telling us this Jesus guy talks about?
Historically, the demographic most likely to sexually assault children is straight men.
Does that mean we should kill all the straight men?

We're The Middle-Finger Of The South
Crossroads of America because you have to drive through there to get somewhere decent.
Whatever you do don't harass them in any way.
Why?
I honestly have to wonder why civil war hasn't broken out yet in the USA.
Like, I'm reminded of Calvin Candie saying "and it wouldn't've taken me no fifty years to do it, neither".
Most people that oppose Trump also follow an ethical code that abohrs violence.
The talking points among people I know here include constantly referencing a study that indicates non-violent opposition is more frequently effective than violent opposition. I suspect that study is a little simplistic, but may have its point.
The problem is, a lot of liberals think that showing up for a 14 June style protest (with permits and police escort) is the full extent of 'non-violent' resistance.
It's taking them a minute to catch on that more, much more, will be needed.
The next step has to be introducing other non-violent tactics - ones that are far less pleasant than bringing a sign to a giant street party on a Saturday afternoon.
Tactics that might involve being arrested (despite not attacking anyone), losing income or your job (work strike), or ending up in a detention facility.
No one wants to do this. This is like getting a cancer diagnosis and not wanting chemo, not wanting to count your expected remaining life in months instead of decades.
Most people will do what most people do - 'see how it goes'. Until they can't anymore.
This is the denial and bargaining stage of a fascism diagnosis.
What a shithole country.
So, he's going to be prosecuted for inciting violence and making threats, right?
That's what SHOULD happen
Instead they will get a place in the Trump Regime.
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.
Absolutely. Jesus was a middle eastern man who preached caring for the sick and poor and hated the commercialization of religion. It's like they stopped reading when they they got to Leviticus.
Let's be real, most of them didn't even start reading it.
Exactly, if they had read more, they could have just forgotten/ignored all of the terrible shit in the Old Testament, and pretended it wasn't there.
The video from "The Playground" darknet site shows Evangelical churches are heavily involved in the child sex slavery trade.
As a trans army veteran, this shit is so infuriating and exhausting to me it’s almost fucking surreal.
We have pedophilic draft dodgers running our government into the ground, anti-social robber barons throwing gasoline on the cultural firestorm with social media algorithms, ICE agents disappearing asylum seekers to be tortured in foreign lands without due process, speakers and representatives bringing nothing but bullshit excuses or outright lies to the table, which of course has our country’s reputation stewing in a trailer park septic tank…
… Meanwhile these insane religious sects are ignoring all of that and hyperfixating on queer people accusing US of pedophilia and calling for our deaths… while they themselves are participating in pedophile rings that often slaughter children once they age out of being attractive to kiddy fuckers.
What kind of “society” are we trying to make here exactly?
At some point the people with empathy have to do violence on the people without.
We outnumber them. Don’t base it on online. Base it on in person. Online is OVERRUN with bots and trolls. It’s not fucking real. It’s a big fucking lie to scare you into giving up.
Don’t.
Remember lol remember when our country used to execute traitors? Ha ha those were the days...
If I'm not being clear: fuck this administration 🖕🤬🖕
"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!"
Tax churches, make them keep playing the victim when they need to justify just how much they are fleecing from their congregation
The only taxes these people will ever pay will be extralegal
How long until it's relieved he's paying for gay prostitutes or touching kids?
Being some flavor of evangelical who raves about "groomers" seems to be the best predictor of being an actual groomer I've seen so far.
I'm sure Epstein provided this guy with little girls. When that comes out, who knows.
His dumb fuck supporters will either not care.
Blame the kids for being so tempting (😐).
Or they'll not believe it (or pretend to not believe it.)
All the other people either already know and hate him for it.
Or they know about it and are indifferent of it until it can be used in some way (such as when musk alluded to it during their little bitch fight on social media a few weeks ago)
Either way the obese cunt will just scream "FAKE NEWS" and carry on being a useless waste of oxygen.
There will be no justice.
My one hope is that history will treat him and all his cronies the way they deserve to be treated.
meanwhile, my family: "just don't be gay for the next 3 and a half years, we don't need to leave"
... Right, I'm sure they definitely leave office as scheduled and I'm sure with how quickly things are progressing I'll still be around to see them do so. Yep. Definitely. 👍
I guarantee you this man turns out to be a pedo.
Even pedos probably treat kids better than these people.
Evangelicals are Christofascists
Period
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
Yeah, this sounds an awful lot like "oh please won't someone take the law into their own hands."
So the guy preaching this is either gay or touching someone's kids. It never fails. Antmyine want to make bets on how long it takes for them to be exposed?
Yeah, execute them all. Those religious nutjob, we could do without.
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.
These are not real Christians, or real Catholics, or even real people.
Yes they are (not Catholics though, pretty sure). Just more, "No True Christian" bullshit apologetics that's plastered all over every thread criticizing American Christians.
Have you read the Old Testament? Tons of murder, including literal genocides committed in the name of god.
Anyway, they will say it's not "murder" because they're calling for the state to do it "lawfully."
That's more than fair to say.
We need to sever church from state permanently.
We can never let the religious orginize as a political group after the pendulum swings back.
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
Haven’t they already done that? That’s essentially what the 2025 Republican Party is.
Watch The God Who Wasn't There - there is some guy calmly talking about murdering gays - but it's okay, because it would be the state doing it (in the trailer below).
This shit has been simmering under the surface for decades upon decades. This is why you cannot have xtians running around and saying this is a "xtian country", because eventually enough get it in their heads that it really is one and they'll set about having government infected with their crazy bullshit and telling us how to live our lives (or not live our lives at all if you are born "wrong").
I don't think people really understand when I tell them that cons are not really patriots and don't really love this country like normal Americans do. They want to turn it into something else that is the very opposite of what America is supposed to stand for.

How very loving and christian of them! /s
Anyone that couldn't tell you were being sarcastic isn't worth your time.
haha right!
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.
Well Hitler also sent lgbt folk to the slaughterhouse
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.
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.
He in fact does not actually worship God, he worships the Devil. And he will burn in Hell for eternity for it.
Oh please. The bible is explicitly anti-LGBT, and this guy is one of the few people actually following what your disgusting book says.
There's an in-universe argument to be made that the Devil has successfully corrupted the Christian church, its teachings and materials, and has for a long time. It's not a new idea, though contexts have been different.
Not a Christian myself, but I'd see loud propagation of this idea as an interesting counterforce to the current evangelical climate. For those folks who, for whatever reasons, remain Christians but think the outcomes of popular Christianity are fucked, this is a position to fight from.
Anything that bolsters resistance against these particular chucklefucks is a good thing.
No you can't. Rules only apply to those with money and/or a willingness to commit violence based on Trump's orders.
Bullshit.
This is a severely christian position and has been for centuries.
You cannot and will not "not true scotsman" christianity away from this.
Edit: if you disagree with me. Tell me.
I'm so willing to learn, but downvotes just tell me you're all clowards.
History has shown that churches such as these often find themselves in ashes after all is said and done. History has shown this.
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.
It depends on the role of the church in the context of that revolution. The church sided against the people in the 1915, and many were burned. They generally supported the people in Latin American revolutions, so they were burned when the US supported counter revolutionary terrorists like the contras.
I'd love to see them try. I'm not going down without a fight.
ws:Bible (King James)/Leviticus#Chapter 20
12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
​
13 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.
​
14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
​
It says nothing about women who have sex with women, or men having sex with men while in a standing (or perhaps seated) position. Also, Leviticus doesn't use the word "homosexual" or "homosexuality" much less condemn it.
This fake-preacher lies about what the Bible says.
Time to execute Christians.
They already have enough of a persecution fetish.
Just like jesus taught.
And again a form of racism is used to make the working class fight each other.
Just remember folks, religion isn't spread by the quality of its truth, but rather the quality of its violence.
I'm surprised we haven't heard from the Westboro Baptist Church lately. Maybe they think their schtick has become normalized.
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
He probably takes it up the bum himself. Deflection tactics.
This fucker is deep, deep in the closet. Or he is a full fledge pedophile. He sure does fixated on children alot.
Also, phrasing!
"come on our streets"
These people need a ton of therapy.
damn that pastor looks like a literal neanderthal who just melted out of the ice
Being a complete POS: so easy a caveman can do it
I don't think bloodthirsty evangelicals understand that the shedding of blood can go both ways.
Well MY BIBLE says anyone with the sur name Falco was intended to be fertilizer, not a person with rights or opinions.
See how that doesn’t work you heartless moronic ghouls?
Burn it
The wages of sin is death. So execute everyone.
I'll bet that pastor guzzles cum by the gallon behind the gas station at 3:00 a.m.
So, Peter Thiel and Lindsay Graham?
Some USians are really fucked in their heads.
The youtuber Dead Domain made an expose about this church a while back: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=W2I-59uDtIk
What a freaky ass pic
Protest outside of Falco's outside. He isn't getting enough attention it seems.
The "Good" book, eh?
Fascism everywhere.
Sickening. Standard fair for the MAGAt movement.
This isn’t new, but him doing it would be.
There's only 10 fucking commandments! How hard is it to remember 10 short items for a faith you claim to believe in.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+20&version=NIV
There's several more actually, but they don't follow those either.
17You must not make yourselves molten gods.
18 “You must keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you must eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you; do this at the appointed time of the month Abib, for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt.
19 “Every firstborn of the womb belongs to me, even every firstborn of your cattle that is a male, whether ox or sheep. 20 Now the firstling of a donkey you may redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then break its neck. You must redeem all the firstborn of your sons.
“No one will appear before me empty-handed.
21 “On six days you may labor, but on the seventh day you must rest; even at the time of plowing and of harvest[at] you are to rest.
22 “You must observe the Feast of Weeks—the firstfruits of the harvest of wheat—and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year. 23 At three times in the year all your men must appear before the Sovereign Lord, the God of Israel. 24 For I will drive out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; no one will covet your land when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year.
25 “You must not offer the blood of my sacrifice with yeast; the sacrifice from the Feast of Passover must not remain until the following morning.
26 “The first of the firstfruits of your soil you must bring to the house of the Lord your God.
“You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
I mean, having relations with the same gender is considered adultery because according to their faith, you cannot marry the same sex. That would be regardless of the law of the land.
That said, I do not for one second, believe anyone who claims to have followed all 10 commandments from the moment they reached the age of accountability (another Christian belief regarding at which point a person is responsible for their sins.)

Well, this is old news. This came out last month.
I will start this out with a disclaimer that I do not follow Christianity at all....
If you are a bible-follower and friendly towards homosexuals, then I guess you're skipping over that part where it says "homosexuality is an abomination".
That's one of the many reasons I can't look to the Bible for guidance. I have some gay friends and they deserve all the love and consideration everyone should get.
To those that say the Bible deserves to be followed, but exclude the parts where it says homosexuality is an abomination, I wonder what other parts you ignore? AFAIK, one isn't supposed to flip through the Bible and pick and choose which sections should be followed.
This is one of the many reasons why I consider the Bible immoral, and following it either immoral or morally and logically inconsistent.
I respectfully disagree, Jesus doesn't even mention homosexuality.
Paul mentions homosexuality, but Paul is very notably not Jesus, he's basically just a guy who rolls up after Jesus is dead and says he's an apostle now. There's also significant cultural context there, and his objection to sex applied to all recreational sex regardless of orientation.
The Old Testament also mentions homosexuality. I am not sufficiently educated on Hebrew culture to comment on those passages, but I do know that Christians are very explicitly not bound by Old Testament law.
The Old Testament doesn't mention homosexuality, but rather men having sex with men. Presumably homosexuality by orientation in of itself is not a sin. Paul might be indicating that homosexuality is more of a curse than a sin.
If one is going to kill another person, one should have good reason, otherwise it's murder, which the Bible also proscribes.
From what I learned and understood about the Bible, Jesus decided everyone was doing an awful job at following gods law, so he introduced the golden rule. Even with that simplification, people gave a hard time understanding. As far as I'm concerned, things like homosexuality would be cleared according to Jesus's guideline.
The old testament says a lot of things (in ARAMAIC) that have been translated by fallible human hands a hundred times with implicit bias. It's a game of telephone that's been going for thousands of years. It didn't mean "gay people are bad".
Im fine with rhwm making it about political. But rhwy need to lose tax exemptions.
can't complain much, just found out today Honda was a last name
I hope everyone here is aware that fascism has now taken hold in America and never before in the history of mankind has fascism stepped down when politely asked to do so.
It has always required force.
Except after the death of Franco. And after a peaceful people's movements removed the Portuguese junta.
Stopping these terrorists with force is a moral necessity if no other way exists.
no other way does exist. Those no kings protests were nice and all but what exactly even remotely, slightly, changed? nothing. they trucked ahead like they will continue to do.
Democrat politicians will continue to chirp on twitter and make awesome tiktok vids but that's all it is at the end of the day, talk. I can only watch so many committee hearings and just know "why am I wasting my time watching this? it's just a dog and pony show and nothing will come of it."
Look I admire AOC and Bernie and the rest of them but peaceful protesting is just going to paint a target on their backs for when they come for them and make no mistake, they will.
I just think Americans should "make it harder" for when the nazi's eventually do come knocking.
If there is some god... I hope hell is a place reserved for this people...
before their own painfull death... I hope they suffer, they have to watch all their beloved people, siblings and offspring die horrible painfull deaths and everyone they hold dear suffer, suffer and suffer... until they die as the oldest humans in ages, bound in a catatonic state for decades and I will gleefully keep the machines running that keep them alive!
And people wonder why I despise all religious institutions, no matter the flavour of their business selling people an empty shell they named hope.
