That's fine... I'm sure they don't want to go to any heaven that has people like you in it anyway.

Whoa, now! Exercising your first-amendment right to comment on our first-amendment protected song is a violation of our first-amendment rights! ...And an attack on Christianity! And I'm totally not making up the death threat!

A bad case of the terrible twos or future fark troll extraordinaire?

"If we don't teach the children the truth early they will never learn."

Makes me sick. Probably homeschool the same kids to make sure they aren't exposed to the Devil's lies, like the age of Earth and evolution.

Marcus Aurelius		2012-06-01 02:25:45 PM

"The people who are upset just don't read the word of God. If we don't teach the children the truth early they will never learn." ... and then we'll have to stone them to death as prescribed in Leviticus.

"Of course we applauded a child who is singing a song about God."

Sorry lady, but if your god not only approves, but encourages songs about bigotry and hate, then I want nothing to do with your god.

swaniefrmreddeer		2012-06-01 02:52:43 PM

Why are they afraid of death threats? If they are murdered, then jebus and gawd will welcome them with open arms, unless of course they aren't absolutely sure about their beliefs.

Quasar		2012-06-01 02:53:24 PM

One reason I'm glad I'm not religious is I'd hate for people to think I'm the same as these assholes.

A god who is so needy as to demand obedience is not a god worth worshipping. And neither is one whose followers are assholes.

Dubwise		2012-06-01 03:19:18 PM

I'd like some proof of these death threats...i'll wait...

It is a shame that people are so bigoted against bigots.

These folks are in for a big surprise when they get to the great beyond and sit down with their maker.

Gay Days here officially started last Tuesday. On the Saturday prior I had someone ask me if I was here for Gay Days and offered to help save me.

She forced my hand. I had no choice but to drop to my knees.

And suck the dick of the hunky checkout clerk.

Ditto. And it's not my sexual identity that would have cinched it.

You can say whatever you want but when it becomes hate speech perhaps the government should revoke your tax exempt status...

Once again, Christians think it's okay to use their free speech to bash and insult other people but don't think it's okay for other people to use their free speech to bash and insult them. I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

Porous Horace		2012-06-01 03:43:23 PM

Yeah right. Like Liberace isn't playing piano in heaven.
He totally matches the decor.

"Help! We're being oppressed!"

imontheinternet		2012-06-01 03:44:02 PM

Leave the bigots alone. They just want to hate you in private and condemn and occasionally beat you in public.

When you think about it, the real bigots are the ones who want to stop me from taking their rights away, just because my point of view is different from theirs.

findthefish		2012-06-01 03:44:22 PM

Why would they need security? Why don't they just trust in god to protect themselves?

thurstonxhowell		2012-06-01 03:44:43 PM

One member says Pastor Jeff Sangl is extremely worried about his safety

I don't want him hurt, but I can't say that I'm upset that he's worried he will be.

vernonFL		2012-06-01 03:44:58 PM

I thought Gay heaven was Saturday night at the Roxy?

/yes I'm old

2xhelix		2012-06-01 03:45:03 PM

I find it even more disturbing that the preacher in that video has his hand in his pocket and is pretty blatantly fondling himself while smiling and watching the boy.

What... obvious tag on break or something?

I just feel really sad for the little kid.

Having this kind of hate brainwashed into him at such an early age has to be considered a type of child abuse.

Honestly, there should be restrictions on "religious education" (i.e. indoctrination) of children, who at a young age are still vulnerable, impressionable, and unable to think critically. People can choose to follow a religion or not when they reach adulthood, when their brains have developed enough to think for themselves.

Ain't no homos going to make it to heaven

"Ah-HA! A double negative! That sounds like a confession!
The double negative has led to prove positive!"

hubiestubert		2012-06-01 03:45:58 PM

How dare people react to something that you actually said?

SultanofSchwing		2012-06-01 03:46:12 PM

This is a lot of overreacting for what is just a simple double negative. The kid's only 3 for farks sake, it's expected.

Englebert Slaptyback		2012-06-01 03:46:39 PM

For as much as a toddler knows he could have been singing about hummus.

There might be hope for the kid if he can be removed from that environment. The parents need to be euthanized.

I'm not sure which way to go on this. Morons using a church to teach hate, or morons making death threats to people that should just be ignored for being morons.
It's like a perfect storm of morons.

/Morons

Guidette Frankentits		2012-06-01 03:47:47 PM

Death threats? Don't you want to go to heaven faster, Pastor?

GoodyearPimp		2012-06-01 03:47:55 PM

"Homos" live a life of decadence and sinful pleasure. There's no way they can get to heaven living like that. So:

1. That'll learn 'em! I'm sure they will choose to sit with 60 year old biddies in a hot room every Sunday morning while some pedophile tells them how horrible they are.

2. As decadent as possible since they can't ever go to "heaven".

Heamer		2012-06-01 03:48:19 PM

Maybe he meant "no homos" as in "no homo sapiens", and the kid is actually just a good, God-fearing, fire 'n' brimstone, doom-saying Christian preacher-in-training.

AIN'T NOBAHDY GOIN' TO HEBBUN!!!

Wyalt Derp		2012-06-01 03:48:36 PM

Yeah, we've read it. Understood it too, which is more than you apparently.

The most shocking thing about this is that it's not in the South.

I don't care if they want to indulge in their self-righteous little hate orgies in their church. I do feel bad for the kids, obviously, but there's not much you can about that.

But they don't keep it private. And as such, invite all the negativity they so richly deserve (threats of violence and death notwithstanding).

I disagree with their chosen lifestyle of hate, intolerance, and ignorance. Maybe we should prevent them from adopting children.

100% THIS!
I've been saying this for years.
