VOTE AGAINST

This is something I was afraid would happen. All the people who were more or less quiet on the issue of gays are now spewing hate speech. The amendment campaign/passage has brought a lot of the crazies out of the woodwork and empowered them (at least in their eyes).

How Christian of these pastors. That is some crazy stuff. Anyone on here go to Berean Baptist Church or know someone who does?
The pastor, identified on YouTube as Charles L. Worley of Providence Road Baptist Church in Maiden, N.C., condemns President Obama's much-publicized endorsement of same-sex marriage while calling for gays and lesbians to be put in an electrified pen and ultimately killed off.

"Build a great, big, large fence -- 150 or 100 mile long -- put all the lesbians in there," Worley suggests in the clip, reportedly filmed on May 13.

He continues: "Do the same thing for the queers and the homosexuals and have that fence electrified so they can't get out...and you know what, in a few years, they'll die out...do you know why? They can't reproduce!"

He also said that if he's asked who he'll vote for, he'll reply, "I'm not going to vote for a baby killer and a homosexual lover!" Many of the congregants cheer and reply, "Amen."

Worley added, “It makes me pukin’ sick to think about -- I don’t even whether or not to say this in the pulpit -- can you imagine kissing some man?”

The pastor's comments seem in line with statements made by Ron Baity, founding pastor of Berean Baptist Church in Winston-Salem and head of the anti-marriage equality organization Return America, who told his own congregation that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people should be prosecuted as they were historically, and Pastor Sean Harris of the Berean Baptist Church in Fayetteville who advocated parents "punch" their male child if he is effeminate and "crack that wrist" if he is limp-wristed.

i wish these loons had come out of their hate filled closets the week before the vote. Might have made some more people think about what kind of position they were voting to support, or failing to come to the polls and vote against.

In the case of both the Berean pastors, they did. And people voted for it anyway

Oh the people voting FOR this Amendment knew what they were voting for, and they did it anyway. Based on the response from this board not only did they vote for it, they took great pleasure in doing so.

Despicable.

Completely agree. That pastors sermon was fillled with hate. But to my point, which I'm sure you caught and avoided, so was Shooshmoo's post.

I'm not sure it was. I believe he was just calling a spade a spade. If somebody is being bigoted, and you call them a bigot, does that make you full of hate?

One of the biggest problems with Christianity today is that people like those are very vocal and get the headlines. And the moderate, reasonable Christians just stand by because "Everybody has their own opinion." No. Fuck that. If somebody is being hateful, it is RIGHT to call them out on it. Standing by and letting them talk just empowers them to spew MORE hate. The only way to break the cycle is to tell them, and everybody else that they are flat, dead wrong.

Sounds accurate to me.

Which part of the description would you disagree with? He is obviously very backwards in his beliefs, and he sounds like quite a dick as well.
