Megachurch Pastor says ‘gays must be put to death’


Claiming that being gay is a choice like drug abuse, the senior pastor
for a megachurch in Tennessee says that “gays must be put to death”
because God commands it.

Last Sunday, Brainerd Baptist Church Senior Pastor Robby Gallaty told
his large congregation that Christians should never stop discriminating
against homosexuals, claiming that gays could choose to be straight if
they only accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Gallaty explained why gays should be put to death:

God said that the sins of the people had infected the very land in
which they live. So what happens to people who engage in this activity,
this sexual immoral activity? Go to Leviticus 20, God gives us the
punishment for engaging in these sins… ‘If a man sleeps with a man as
with a woman, they have both committed a detestable thing. They must be
put to death. And their blood is on their own hands.’
