Hate preacher Scott Lively blames God for failing to stop gay equality

http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2015/08/03/hate-preacher-scott-lively-blames-god-for-failing-to-stop-gay-equality/

In a new blog post, the extremist has called for people to realise the “brutal truth” and revolt against “homo-fascism” – but blamed God for “abandoning” the Church in the United States.

He said: “How is it that a relatively tiny handful of homosexual activists, themselves representing less than 2% of our population, has managed in the same period of time to establish a reign of homo-fascism in the United States that has turned centuries-old American values upside down and has turned its large Christian plurality (if not majority) into criminals (if they dare to cling to the teachings of the Bible)?...

“It’s really pretty simple. The American church just doesn’t have God’s favour anymore.

“The brutal truth is the church has lost the so-called culture war and is now under occupation, like the French under the Nazis, with nothing left to do but organize resistance and plot to overthrow the occupiers through a political revolt.


Why does he hate God so much?

And he only just found out that God does not believe in hatred. She is love, and loves all Her children, including the gay ones.

he can't take no for an answer. While he was praying for LGBT to be wiped off the face of the earth. LGBT were praying for equality. Guess whose prayers God answered?

What an ass clown. Perhaps he should consider his understanding of God is incorrect. I'm an atheist but I remember from several years of religious high school that the new testament was filled with hippie nonsense like love thy neighbor and feeding the poor.
