Black preacher DESTROYS Christian hypocrisy re: LGBT
I have little positive regard for the Church and preachers usually. Finding issues with this group is shooting big fish in a small barrel.
That said, you have to check this guy out. Man, oh Man: he attacks the Churches in general who have been demonizing the LGBT population and he goes OFF. You can light a fire with this sermon.
Pastor E. Dewey Smith of the House of Hope, Greater Travelers Rest church in Decatur gave an impassioned sermon, posted to YouTube on Thursday, in which he slammed church leaders for judging gay people but “you change wives like we change underwear.”

“We demonize and dehumanize the same people that we use and we don’t say nothing about the gay choir director because he’s good for business” Smith said. “As long as the choir sound good, I ain’t saying nothing about his sexuality. We have done what the slave master did to us. Dehumanize us, degrade us, demonize us, but then use them for our advantage.”
