Kirk Cameron Ministers To Gay People In 'Deeper Understanding' Montage Video
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/11/22/kirk-cameron-saving-gay-people_n_6203802.html
"The video was made for the blog "Everything is Terrible," which is a comedy site that features funny edits of found footage. We thought it would get a few laughs, and that would be the end of it. We weren't expecting it to be shared around the Internet as much as it has. But, it gives me great pleasure to show the world what an arrogant douchebag Kirk Cameron is.
I've noticed a lot of comments made that our edit is portraying Kirk purposely in a negative light. Yes, we did cherry-pick some of the more outrageous quotes and some things are presented out of context, but if you watch the entire, unedited video, the message of intolerance and hate is exactly the same.
One thing we were on the fence about including were the bits with the transgender woman. We didn't want to present her as someone to laugh at in the video, so I hope people recognize that she is a hero for standing up to their bullying (because that's what it really is -- "Why don't you just dress as a man and all your problems will be over" says Kirk's partner in crime, Ray Comfort)."
Cameron is currently taking a little time away from of his busy anti-queer agenda to try and save Christmas from the pagans, proving there truly is no rest for the wicked.

There is a particular type of believer who holds their faith mostly because it lets them feel superior to those who don't share that faith. Cameron and Comfort strike me as two of the kind.
