Right-wing Christians are opposing Donald Trumps choice of Exxon Mobils CEO for secretary of state because they believe he turned the Boy Scouts gay.
Friends of Rex Tillerson, who was tapped by Trump to lead the State Department, say the oil executive would promote American values abroad because hes a devoted Eagle Scout with a sense of duty, loyalty, faithfulness, loyalty he embraces all of that.
But Tony Perkins, the head of the anti-LGBT Family Research Council, slammed his choice on ideological grounds, reported Politico.
FRC knows Tillerson all too well, having worked for years to put the brakes on his reckless agenda for a scouting organization that was already dealing with staggering numbers of sexual abuse cases, Perkins wrote.

God help and forgive us."

Strange how many of these particular people are virulently homophobic, obsessively.
