Group holds anti-gay protests on Southeastern's campus [View all]

A regular day on the campus of Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond turned into a spectacle when a Christian group called Consuming Fire Fellowship held large signs and spoke loudly to a crowd of students against sin and homosexuality.

Some of the signs members of the group were holding while protesting read, “Homosexuality is perversion.”

“All I heard was like, ‘Gays are wrong!” student Joshua Erikson said.

He says the message the group is sending makes him sick to his stomach.

“No one should feel like an outcast because they’ve chosen a lifestyle they like,” he said.

One viewer who sent photos of the protest said one student was told before going to class that he will go to hell for his homosexuality. Other students were in tears while others yelled back.
