How fucking disgusting and enraging.

Sometimes I hope there is a God, if only to deal with such evil murdering wastes of life, because just like his murder victim, this evil human being certainly won't get the justice he deserves using our system.

RIP

I doubt he has ever read and tried to understand anything in it.

My LGBT brothers and sisters in Christ know way more about God’s truth than that murdering bigot.

Most of the passages that are used to support that kind of hate have a different meaning and are taken out of context. Scripture does tell us not to live a lie or a half truth. The divine algorithm is not a lie. Having an extra chromosome is still Gods truth. Being constitutionally gay is not a lie. A straight man working as a trans prostitute would be a lie. A straight woman forced to work as a prostitute in the fist century is not living God’s truth but she definitely not beyond God’s love.

The scribes and Pharisees could not understand why Jesus spent his time with people they considered undesirable. Jesus ate with actual sinners. He did not kill anyone in the name of God’s love.

I don’t have the vocabulary to convey my thoughts and feelings about this. It’s the most profane desecration of humanity - each time it happens. @$#%*&!!
