John Fugelsang: Mike Pence should be grateful there isnt a law prohibiting serving fake Christian BigotsJohn Fugelsang 'Nothing in the gospels where Jesus ever condemns gay people'
John Fugelsang went on the Ed Show and spoke about Indiana's new law that would discriminate against gay people.
Appearing on MSNBCs The Ed Show, popular comedian and Sirius XM radio host John Fugelsang piled on Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R), saying the governor should be grateful there isnt a law that prohibits businesses from serving fake Christian bigots.
(snip)
You know, being gay is natural, hating gays is a lifestyle choice, Fugelsang told the host. And Mike Pence should be very very grateful there isnt a law that prohibits businesses from serving fake Christian bigots. Because, whether or not its discrimination its up for debate, maybe, it certainly seems that way what is not up for debate is that it is not Christian.
There is nothing in the Gospels where Jesus ever condemns gay people and, really, you cant use anything in the entire New Testament, including those three letters of Paul, to deny service to gay people as well. If youre a Christian, its not your job to judge gay people, its your job to love gay people.
