Pastor wants LGBT+ people to wear 'warning labels' on their foreheads

Viciously anti-LGBT+ televangelist and pastor Andrew Wommack has insisted that LGBT+ people should wear a “warning label” on their foreheads.

Wommack decided to discuss LGBT+ rights and the Equality Act on his “Truth and Liberty Livecast”, joined by guest and homophobic, anti-abortion activist Janet Porter of Faith2Action, a Southern Poverty Law Center-designated hate group.

While discussing the Equality Act, which would amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in housing, employment, public education, and a number of other areas, Wommack declared: “What this would do is say that gender choice and homosexuality and all these things are like civil rights, just like… ethnic.”

Porter chimed in: “Every cross-dresser within a 100 mile radius would beat a path to your door to try to get hired and when you say ‘no, I’m sorry, we’re not hiring right now’, then they’re gonna sue you.”

Christianity has a long history of being homophobic - trying to claim a group isn’t Christian because they are homophobic does not help change the faith.

Weren't allowed to spread hate. We get enough of that from politicians. If the preachers want to spread hatred, put a 70% tax on all the money they take in. They owe that for all of the extra work that the police and other first responders have to do as a result of their vicious rhetoric.

The foundation of their grift is based on lies.

The only time I've seen the dead come alive is 5:00 p.m., end of shift.

Seriously! There has to be some oversight here, because these "religious leaders" are getting out of control and they have way too much influence. Tax the shit out of them.

That's why Republicans want to end unemployment, right?
