‘Christian’ Pastors Suggest Executing A Gay Person During Rose Bowl Parade

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...
Quote:On New Year’s Day during the Rose Bowl parade, a same-sex wedding took place on a float. In the days leading up to the public nuptials, anti-gay activists whined and called for a boycott of the event ( https://www.facebook.com/BoycottTheRoseParade). Thankfully, the parade was a complete success and so was the wedding. But a pair of right-wing pastors remain in a tizzy over it and suggested that future parades should include the public execution of a gay person. Pastor Kevin Swanson and Pastor Dave Buehner were discussing the annual Tournament of The Roses parade and festivities on their radio show this week. Ultimately, the topic of the same-sex wedding arose. Both “Christians” mocked the AIDS Healthcare Foundation by blaming gay people for the virus. Buehner asked: “This is an AIDS group? This is a group that’s against AIDS? They’re not trying to spread AIDS right? I mean, if you are trying to spread AIDS you would have pro-homosexual propaganda but if you’re trying to stop it….” Then Dave Buehner suggested that anti-gay activists should be represented at these parades as well. He thinks it’s only fair that anti-gay groups get to put on their own display. Buehner wants to stone a gay person to death as the crowd watches. BUEHNER: “I wonder what the Rose Bowl parade would do if we had the stoning of a homosexual along the parade just as an expression of free speech and all that.” Apparently, right-wing “Christians” are so bloodthirsty and hateful that they actually want to execute a gay person along the parade route just so their disgusting point of view can be represented as well. I suspect they’d also be reciting bible verses as well. But Kevin Swanson didn’t end the ranting there. He went on to claim that the LGBT community has declared war on all Christians. He also advocated for the government to prosecute homosexuals just for being who they are. If it were up to Swanson, the same-sex couple who got married on the parade float would be immediately arrested and tossed in a prison to rot.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

BUEHNER: “I wonder what the Rose Bowl parade would do if we had the stoning of a homosexual along the parade just as an expression of free speech and all that.” He must have forgotten the whole 'let he who is without sin cast the first stone' incident in the NT. It seems to me if Christ wasn't in favor of stonings, maybe people who call themselves his followers should not be promoting them.
