Because Heaven Is A Vote Away

Wouldn't be an election year without churches and the GOP streamlining their message.  Today's installment of tax exempt GOP political campaigning:
  • The pastor of New Hope Baptist Church in Seneca, Kansas, Republican Curtis Knapp says President Barack Obama has gone too far in supporting same sex marriage and it’s time for the U.S. government to begin killing gay men and lesbians
  • Young Republican sings a song of joy.  “The Bible is right, somebody’s wrong,” the boy, who appears to be around 4-years-old, sings. “Romans 1 and 27, ain’t no homo gonna make it to heaven.”  Before the boy can finish the song, members of the congregation jump their feet, applauding and cheering wildly. 
  • A right wing Christian think tank is telling President Barack Obama that the “wages of sin is death” after he announced support for equal marriage rights for LGBT people.  Republican and Grand Leader of the  Family Research Council, Tony Perkins, penned a letter to the president citing what he believes to the sinful nature of Obama's policies.
  • Republican Pastor Ronnie Spriggs of Hager Hill Freewill Baptist Church in Kentucky said during a May 13 sermon that he wants Obama voted out of office because of the president's support of gay marriage.
