Scott Lively, hate group leader extraordinaire, speaking at a church in California:
I want to just attack this idea that people have raised that homosexuality is just another sin because that’s not true and the more that we embrace that, the more that we accept that as a concept, the more distant we are from understanding the warning that God gives us when we see this phenomenon in our society.
Gay is especially bad! And not only because gay is the thing that Scott Lively is unnaturally fixated with!
When you see the gay pride parade going down the street in the major cities, what banner are they flying over them? They’re flying the banner of the rainbow. What is the rainbow? The rainbow is God’s covenant with man never to destory the Earth by water again …
God never promised not to send a flood of gays to cover the earth. Loophole!
So there’s an enormous warning there and, at the same time, we’re also given a clue as to what’s happening with apostasy in the modern age when people will raise the rainbow flag – and there’s a passage in Isiah, I forget the chapter and verse, that says “they parade their sin like Sodom.” And that is what is exactly going on with people who have defined themselves by this particular behavior and lifestyle. They parade their sin like Sodom. And they do it under the rainbow banner almost as if they’re saying “God, you can do nothing to us” because they don’t believe that Sodom was destroyed because of homosexuality so they aren’t learning the lesson from that.
Because the only way you can believe that Sodom was destroyed because of homosexuality is if you A. Have been taught that repeatedly and never looked at the verses for yourself, B. Only halfway glance at a bad translation and also do not own or know how to use a concordance, as the actual sin of Sodom is explained fourteen times throughout the Bible, and it’s not Gay, or C. Are like Scott Lively, and have such a weird, unhinged hatred of gay people that, even though you’re theoretically capable of studying the text for yourself, you simply continue lying because it props up your smelly bigotry.
In fifty years we have seen this tiny group of people – they really only represent about two percent of the population – that has grown from being a reviled subculture to now having more power in the legislatures and courtrooms of the world than the Christian church does.
Uh, no.
In fifty years! Nothing has ever grown that fast globally, nothing. Not Islam, not Darwinism, not Marxism, nothing has ever grown that fast. Which shows you that this is a spiritual phenomenon that is unparallelled and that’s why God has selected it, singled out this particular behavior to be the indicator of extreme apostasy, the furthest edge of deviance and the warning sign that things are in really, really bad shape.
Islam is a huge, ancient world religion with over a billion adherents. Darwinism is what morons call “evolutionary biology,” and as such, its “spread” is referred to as “education.” Etc. But none of these things have grown faster than GAAAAAAAY, says Scott.
Perhaps it’s more that none of those things keep Scott Lively awake shivering at night, and that’s why he views the gays as more powerful.
Oy. The more he talks, the more I’m inclined to feel sorry for him. Right Wing Watch has the video.
Just out of curiosity, where is the sin of Sodom explained fourteen times in the Bible?
“Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, abundant food and careless ease, but she did not help the poor and needy. Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me.” (Ezekiel 16.49–50)
Gee, you’d think if god hated homos so much he’d just wipe them out like Scotty claims he did to Sodom. What, has god lost his powers in his old age?
I think I mentioned this here before, but the latest archeological evidence has found records left by the astrologer/astronomers of that time and place and scientists are fairly certain now that S and G were destroyed by an asteroid – hence the ‘fire raining from the sky’. These guys actually saw it coming and made a record of it. Ancient peoples being the way there were (and many people today) had to find a reason for the natural disaster and of course it was ‘God’s wrath’ for ‘their sins’. The people of S and G may have been total a*s-wipes who had a penchant for gang rape, but the asteroid hit had nothing to do with homosexuality — or anything else. Sometimes, s**t just happens.
“And that is what is exactly going on with people who have defined themselves by this particular behavior and lifestyle.”
That sounds like Christians and certain other religious types.
The more hatred spewing from these peoples’ mouths is proof that they’re losing the battle. They know deep down we are winning the cultural war which makes them that more desperate and irrelevant. If this idiot really believes in the Sodom and Gomorrah nonsense, the he must always believe in the stoning to death of women for adultery, among other irrational bibilical admonitions in the old testament. Polygamy is also condoned in that part of the bible too, an heterosexual phenomenon of course.
I always found it curious and interesting that after Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed for the sin of “homosexuality”, Lot and his daughters wandered and ended up in a cave where the daughters got daddy drunk (obviously they remembered to bring the wine when they ran from the destruction) and they both fucked him. Now we all know that is called incest. His own daughters and I’m sure Lot enjoyed it too. BUT, those wily Christians thought up an excuse for the accursed sin of INCEST. Thus, it became OK that one time when their patriarch did it with his girls.
