Unbiased scientific studies indicate that between 8 and 20 years are taken off the lifespan of a 20 year old male queer due to the horrid health problems he will definitely get. What kind of Pastor is going to condone that?
The clearest examples of intolerance in the US is anywhere secular liberals gather. Universities, Hollywood, the media, etc. Absolutely no tolerance whatsoever for opposing points of view. And they will do their utmost to act on it and ruin you if you don't submit.
Only the brain dead can't see it.
You just hi-lighted the problem with having discussions with people on ET. There is no context, no internal state. My post isn't about this incident in particular, it is about all incidents like this and where the disease stems from. My posts are one continuous dialogue, and the dialogue is that religion is a disease.
This particular pastor is but one incident in a continuous disease of the mind throughout history called organized religion, where you don't go to worship - you go to be brainwashed into intolerance and obedience. Note I didn't say Christians, Muslims, Jews. RELIGION. In other words, it is just gathering more evidence. This evidence gathering has been going on for thousands of years. Each year, more and more people are being cured of the disease.
Another problem with having discussions with a hammer is that if you discuss a house, all they want to talk about in return is the nails in the house.
Christians are well known for having problems with their own sexuality. That is why this is such a big deal for them how other people express their sexuality.
To you it's all about Christians vs Muslims vs Jews. I don't give a shit. Organized religion is fucked.
You are worried about this Muslim detail, or that Christian detail, in a book written by farmers with a sixth grade education or some fat guy under a tree. Raise your nose from the grind and expand your horizons. You might just enjoy the twentieth century.
It stops 80% criminals in most other countries that have strict gun laws. Less killings, and less violence, less crimes. Why do you think the crime statistics in most developed nations outside the US look way better? Are non Americans better human beings? I doubt it.

FBI: US Homicide Rate at 51-Year Low
The US homicide rate in 2014, the most recent year available, was 4.5 per 100,000. The 2014 total follows a long downward trend and is the lowest homicide rate recorded since 1963 when the rate was 4.6 per 100,000. To find a lower homicide rate, we must travel back to 1957 when the total homicide rate hit 4.0 per 100,000.
Homicide rates were considerably higher in the United States during the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, but over the past 25 years, have fallen nearly continuously:
