Pastor Hagee: Same Sex Marriage ‘Is Two Disturbed People Playing House’

Conservative Pastor John Hagee says that the expansion of rights for LGBT people has made it necessary for him to explain that marriage should only be between one man and one woman — and anything else is just “two disturbed people playing house.”

“The concept is just absolutely staggering,” Hagee lamented during the Tuesday broadcast of Hagee Hotline. “The Bible requirements for getting married are these: One, that you marry someone of the opposite sex.”

“I never thought I would have to say that on television but these days, it’s necessary,” he added. “And Genesis 1:1 says that God created male and female. That’s a marriage.”

“Anything else is two disturbed people playing house.”

The bible says a lot of fucked up things. If it's all right with you, we'll start holding you and your asshole followers to those parts too, how does that sound?

That's why the divorce rate is so high. God also created gay people, it's not a choice.

Speaking of disturbed, Hagee...have you looked in the mirror lately?

14. For sure...marriage equality is about the chance to make a LEGAL marriage work.

That is all marriage really is...a legal choice.

Happily, most marriages are based on love, trust, respect, compatibility and attraction.

"one man and one woman" -- yes, but also

one man and multiple women(but never one woman and multiple men)

one man and a slave woman

one man and his rape victim

one man and a female prisoner of war

Or, in King Solomon's case, one man and 700 wives and 300 concubines!

I don't give two shits what this guy says. Haters are going to hate. Give same-sex couples the same civil rights as everybody else, and leave it up to traditional churches to decide who gets to walk down which aisle.

Just because it takes two sexes to breed (at some point in the process, including donations at a sperm bank), it doesn't mean those sexes are particularly good at living together.

How many like that does he have?

Hagee is nothing but yet another religious scammer, taking money from the many thousands -- he says millions! -- of people who donate to his ministry of hate so he can enrichen himself.

Read about the latter here:

::::Hagee screaming at his congregation several years ago::::

I wish I could find the vid, but its tone is exactly like this one;



The guy is a fucking nutcase.

Well...no...he isn't.

He is a clever bullshit artist who knows PRECISELY what he is doing.
