When You Get Death Wishes for Sharing Biblical Truth With Love
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Just when I thought things had calmed down with the LGBT attack on our “Can You Be Gay and Christian?” video, we were flooded with a fresh deluge of hate-filled, profane, and vile comments, including winners like this: “Burn this guy at the stake or do whatever yall want i dont give a d**n. Just make sure he suffers before he dies. okay? Okay.” Where did this new attack come from?
Well, it turns out that another gay vlogger with a large following played a lot of the video on his channel (that’s another way to get the message out!). In response, his followers came flocking to our video to give it a thumbs down and to attack it — and me.
Now, remember, according to the PC narrative, we’re the haters and those who oppose us are the voice of tolerance. And let’s also remember that I have always denounced those who speak hatefully of LGBT’s, differing with those who call them names and want to put gays to death.
In fact, within the last 24 hours, I was attacked for rebuking a radical-right pastor who rejoices when gays are killed. In response to my stand, a man named Tylah wrote, this pastor “may be a cult leader but I’d rather a somewhat Biblical cult than a fa**ot pervert like ‘DR’ Brown defending his [expletive] buddies.”
In other words, because I speak the truth in love, I’m perceived as weak — as partnering with the homosexual community. As a pervert myself.
You would think, then, that our tolerant LGBT friends would appreciate my approach. You would think they would say, “Well, we disagree with this guy, but we appreciate his attempts to reach out with love.”
Not a chance! To them, I’m a homophobe of the worst kind, a destroyer of lives, probably a closeted homosexual myself.
A Sample of the Comments We’ve Received
Here are some of their recent choice comments in response to our video (and remember, these are only the ones we can print; many of them are just a series of expletives):
Hateful human being. When someone wants to take other people’s rights or freedoms because of their own beliefs they go against EVERYTHING this country AND the Bible stand for. I saw your commercial on YouTube. Disgusting and packed full of lies and fear mongering. Your “breed” is becoming extinct THANK GOD!!!
I cant wait to hear the news on when he 1. Gets caught getting [expletive] by a male [expletive] 2. Dies.
No one has ever said this [expletive]. Stop cherry picking your religion and shut the [expletive] up.
See you in hell you [expletive] fa**ot.
Wow homophobic and sexist, is he racist too? At that point that wouldn’t surprise me. 2018 and the young generation’s open minds must be hard for [expletives] like him.
evangelical christians die challenge. get your old [expletive] to that “heaven” you talk about so much.
If you find religion to be any level of “education,” you are tragically retarded. May Satan bless your [expletive] old man.
he says this like he doesn’t rape the young boys that go to his church
The reality is that in the midst of this anger I see a lot of pain. It is the pain of those who have suffered rejection. The pain of those who are still hurting on the inside.
Yes — this is the voice of tolerance, the voice of love, the voice of diversity, the voice of inclusion. And we who say God’s ways are best are the intolerant haters. All clear!
As for those who call themselves Christians, there were choice comments like this: “It’s just a frickinn book written by some people 2000 years ago get over it. (I’m christian)”
Oh yes, quite the Christian view of Scripture!
And this: “I’m a pansexual Christian.”
But of course! You can have sex with whoever you want and be a Christian. Obviously!
God’s Truth Will Triumph
The reality is that in the midst of this anger I see a lot of pain. It is the pain of those who have suffered rejection. The pain of those who are still hurting on the inside. (Dare I say they are still hurting because something is not right between them and God?)
So, I feel no anger towards them at all. Instead, their angry posts and comments only remind me to pray for them to discover God’s transforming love.
We know that in the end, God’s truth will triumph. But right now, we’re in a pitched battle for the soul of our nation.
But to the extent we stand with Jesus and His Word, we will be maligned and hated and rejected, just as He was. He told us to expect this. (See Matt 5:10-12; 10:23-25; John 15:18-21.)
So, let’s fight back by: 1) Praying for the salvation and transformation of those who identify as LGBT; 2) educating ourselves on the scriptural and cultural issues; 3) standing up and speaking the truth in love, without compromise; 4) sharing our video (and giving it a thumbs up too!).
We know that in the end, God’s truth will triumph. But right now, we’re in a pitched battle for the soul of our nation. This it not a time for the faint of heart!
Let’s move forward, not backward, not ashamed of the gospel and not ashamed of our convictions. As we do, Jesus will not be ashamed of us.

Keep your silly religious fantasies to yourself because others do not need to be death-wished by bronze-age mythology. Anybody who wants to learn about Christianity in the US already has multiple resources at their disposal because many people will give you a free bible, you can watch church on TV or you can watch 30,000 hours of Christian YouTube videos.
Can I knock on your door at 9:00am on Saturday telling you about the wonders of Pastafarianism?
HA has inspired me to become a lot more proactive in the battle against neighborhood religious solicitation.
Maybe that cult leader shouldn't be posting his hate speech on a public site like Youtube?
I also wonder if his hate speech violated Youtube's terms of service. Has anyone reported his video yet? I know that Youtube, FB and similar sites have been canceling the accounts of neo-Nazis and others who post that kind of crap.
Your avatar says it all.
Watching them wade hip deep into a pond of duck shit soup to retrieve their bikes back was more comical than being cited for trespassing this time. Think of it as a grassroots effort by concerned local citizens to deal with those that have no respect for the law.
I moved their bikes to the illegal solicitor bike parking spot. They found them, but their walmart slacks needed to go in a washing machine when they got back to missionary central.
I would have let the air out of their tires. It's a subtle message.
Quite the sweeping generalization there.
Do you check under the bed and in the closet for Humanists and secular progressives before you go to sleep?
Letting the air out of bike tires does not rise to the level of vandalism.
Maybe religious missionaries could respect the privacy and property of others and stop harassing them as a way of gaining new recruits for a dying idea. I've never heard of Humanists or your feared secular progressives knocking on doors to get recruits. Most modern people gain recruits via spam email or YouTube videos in the 21st century. Even robocalling is less annoying than some dipstick pounding on the door and leaving their printed idiocy in my mailbox.
Which is a Federal offense. Only mail from the US postal service is allowed to be deposited in people's mail box.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By law, a mailbox is intended only for receipt of postage-paid U.S. Mail. ... Additionally, the Postal Service has received complaints of flyers without paid postage being placed in mailboxes . Though many may be unaware, it is important to know that this type of activity is illegal by federal law.

The next time someone leaves religious materials in your mail box, leave it there and call your local post office and file a complaint. They will have someone come out and investigate. I don't think that will happen again once the church officials have been notified by the US postal Service. It is a Federal offense. And just because they are a church does not mean they will not be fined.
BTDT. It works.
I throw it in the recycling cart when it happens on almost a monthly basis.
The JW's used to come to my house once a week, even after I told them I as not interested. It was the same people each time. So I stopped answering the door when the came and they started leaving their literature in my mail box. So after the 5th or 6th time, I called the local post office and told them about it. They sent out an inspector on the day that the JW's usually came and watched as they put their literature in my mail box. He had filmed them so he ha them red handed. The person who put the literature in my mail box was fined and told if they did it again they would be put in jail. I never saw the JW's at my house again.
How rude of some people.
Good for you. it seems that's the only way they can take a hint.
They knowingly broke the law by soliciting in a complex clearly posted No Soliciting. I didn't have time to wait for the cops to show up, so I picked up their bikes and walked 50 feet to the duck pond and tossed them in. I did them a favor. Complex has been thumper free for over 2 weeks now. I'm driving over their bikes the next time it happens.
I see the anti-Christian bigots are brim full of hate here.all you have to do is bring the Bible or obeying Christ and they are besides themselves with hate
Your own anti-LGBT views are very well known, Larry, as is your desire to unconstitutionally use the secular state to enforce Christian sharia laws against gays much in the same way that similar Christian sharia laws were once enforced against women and black folks.
It’s interesting your obsession with lying, especially about others
as I repeatedly challenge your lies, cite for us a single teaching from Jesus or the Apostles to establish ANY civil laws
There is NO such thing as “Christian Sharia law”. Sharia exists ONLY in Islam
i have never advocated a single type of bigotry against Constitutional rights. There is no authority in the Constitution to sanction marriage nor should the government have ANY involvement in marriage or divorce
there is not a single teaching by Jesus or the Apostles to make laws supporting slavery or unequal treatment of women
Those are very odd claims since you admitted that you voted for Prop h8 in order to deny gays the civil rights you enjoy, and admitted that you voted in order to use the state to enforce your twisted morality. Here's what you said:
So we can see that you were indeed trying to use the secular state to unconstitutionally enforce the sharia laws of your twisted sect. Your vote was just as vile and unethical as the southern Christian extremists who voted to deny mixed-race couples the right to marry. It's a very good thing that both you and those racist morons lost in court otherwise America would be even more like Saudi Arabia where superstition rules.
How many times have you used this boilerplate reply today, to bump your thread back to the top of the tracker......?
Thank you for admitting that you are only interested in bumping your threads back to the tracker, instead of having a rational, intellectual discussion.
your 4.1.5 comment is what bumped your 3 day old seed. you do it all the time. seeds all have life spans yet you constantly try to resuscitate them. Waste of bandwidth.
It's not anti-Christian to want you and HA to stop preaching at people who don't welcome it
If it's on the front page I have the right to criticize the content and the seeder.
from the seeded link:
well this reeks of the "victim card" so it's no surprise as to the reasons for seeding it.
Next, no one would really have a problem if the religious only "said" it and not tried to enforce it through secular laws, didn't knock on people's doors constantly in an effort to recruit, didn't constantly condemn (or worse) anyone who doesn't believe or worship in the same manner as they do, didn't try to prevent the LGBT community from enjoying the secular legal civil right of Marriage and didn't try to reverse the SCOTUS decision on the matter etc.
Basically, i don't think anyone would really have an issue if the religious just left everyone else alone, but that seems to be a problem with them and they blame their God stating it commands they constantly interfere into everyone's lives and try to control their lives for them. Maybe the religious should consider stopping putting in such an effort to control everyone else
Hear! Hear!

Definitely true depending on the doctrine taught in certain Christian sects. Yahweh doesn't like a lot of things and some offenses carried death by stoning as the punishment demanded by Yahweh.
I found a TEDTalk given by a woman who was raised in an evangelical sect. She calls it a cult, but I don't see much difference in her sect's beliefs vs other evangelical sects that are not to be called cults on some internet forums.

I believe this applies to every person who worships any political or religious leader.
As much as we like to pretend to be independent thinkers, are we really?
I don't worship any politician and obviously, I am not religious. Everyone has the right to believe and live as they wish, until they open a business that requires them to serve all people equally or they try to restrict the secular rights of others.
I question my views every day and I hope to identify any biases.
The only actual difference is how many members they have and whether the cult is accepted or marginalized by the general society. But they're pretty much all equally nutty, and many of the biggest ones which are generally considered "acceptable" have harmful ideologies which target women and minorities.
I should have worded that differently because it was not directed at you personally.
I probably watch too many videos about the lottery of birth.
The man in the following video says "We do not choose our identity - we inherit it." and many other things that might better explain what I meant about having truly independent thoughts.
This woman's story of control and abuse by the Christian cult led by her grandfather is heartbreaking.
Agreed!! If they want to play preacher they should find a church where those who attend would be interested in their endless proselytizing.
If you don't want us heathens to comment on your articles, why don't you post them in your private groups? It doesn't matter what category you use, it still ends up on the front page.
(CoC violation removed. Due to the number of violations you have earned a 2 day suspension ending 6/22/18 at 6:10AM EST. Telo
Oh 'comon HA, you know that you'd be really upset if I didn't comment on one of your seeds. And I don't want to hurt your little feelings.
Hate begets hate, The more hate that is expresses to others, the more hate will be returned. But, some don't seem to understand that.
Is my atheism chopped liver? Why don't I count?
(Skirting the CoC removed) Telo
Strange then that only homophobes, racists and misogynists are being condemned rather than all superstitious people. Perhaps that's because not all superstitious folks are bigots?
