Voice of Christian Youth America host Matt Trewhella lashes out at gay people as "filthy" and gay-friendly straight people as "disgusting."
Here's the text of the clip:
“Your children would be getting perverted in their minds by these filthy people,” Trewhella claimed, before turning his venom to straight people who don’t condemn gays and lesbians: “I have no respect for people who are parents, who actually have children, and have no problem with homosexuality or homosexual marriage. They are the most base people on the planet to have totally abandoned every God-given vestige to protect your child from the filth of homosexuality, to blatantly go along with it is disgusting.”(via Right Wing Watch)
“It’s disgusting to watch, it’s disgusting to see,” Trewhella said.
It's unfortunate to see someone who claims the grace of God withhold it from those he is supposed to be sharing it with. As a Christian, I apologize on his behalf.
ReplyDeleteJesus said the two greatest commandments, if you were to distill all the commandments into two basic ones, were to love God and love others as yourself (Mark 12:30-31). This man is speaking in arrogance and clearly not in love. He may not agree with the homosexual lifestyle, but there is a way to disagree and even be against someone respectfully and lovingly. He needs to take a lesson from the Master. John 8:7 "...let he who is without sin cast the first stone"
I do want to be clear that I do respect true Christians greatly. Those people who live their values honestly. Like you Chris.
ReplyDeleteNote that I don't refer to the man above as Christian, because in my opinion he doesn't represent those I know to be good, loving people.
I draw attention to him to show how some people can twist what so many care for. Thanks for your comment, Chris.
