Conservative Christian leader says date that legalized same sex marriage is "our 9/11"

Bryan Fischer declares that “6/26/15 is our 9/11” and “a date which will live in infamy.”

He also compares it to Dred Scott, because you know, gays getting married is the equivalent of slavery.

It's just funny when pundits and politicians attacked Rep. Ilhan Omar for "attacking the memory of 9/11" but yet they are silent on this group which has the White House and Republican Party on speed dial.

White's up with that?

Man, they love to cherry-pick the passages they follow to fit their fundraising narratives.

Rev needs to mind his business. Does he care which straight people marry?

I wish we could feed a few fundies to the lions so that we could remind christians what actual persecution looks like.

basically meaning a good born again christian shouldn't marry any infidels, apostates or heathens.
