Colorado Springs Pastor Calls For The “Removal of Homosexuals” From Society

I try to post mostly positive news on this blog.  I occasionally post about bigotry and hatred toward the LGBT community, but I try to keep it to a minimum.  But this one I couldn’t pass up.

Pastor David Beuhner of Larkspur, Colorado (a suburb of Colorado Springs, home of hate group Focus on the Family) is calling for discrimnation of gays:

 “I’m calling for discrimination against adulterers, rapists, murderers, homosexuals. Yes, we must discriminate as a society.”

Beuhner, the pastor of Christ the King Church told a local television station that he is preaching out of love.  He is warning gays of the destruction they will bring to all if they do not repent.  He went on further to compare gays to child molesters, cannibals and rapists.

Cannibals?  I’ve heard the rest… over and over again… but cannibals?

Beuhner wants laws that will remove homosexuals – whatever that means… Do we get an island?  Or will they just dig a deep pit and pour us all in?  Maybe they’ll just put us in an electrified fence until we all die out as Pastor Worley suggested last year?

“God’s law to the civil magistrate in terms of homosexuality says you should remove the abomination from the land, so that’s God’s instruction to the people who work up in the capitol who make our laws. That’s what they’re going to be held accountable for,” he said.

I know this is not representative of all Christians.  I really do.  But where are those Christians that stand for equality.  Why aren’t’ they marching in the streets?  Where are the full page ads like the Catholic Church can afford?  Even if you don’t want gays to be part of your church, where are the religious voices supporting full CIVIL equality?  I know they are out there, but why are they so easily drowned out by the ugly bigots.

If you have examples of religious institutions standing up for equality, send them my way, I’ll post them all!
