Pastor prays for Obama to die.

[DrDeath3191]

I really don't like Obama, but this is a bit extreme.

 

[Yarkaz]

So what?
I could wish upon a star for Obama to die, but that doesn't mean it'll happen.

It might, but probably not because of the star.

Isn't wanting someone dead a bad thing in Religion?

Sure is. Hell, the Bible forbids it even when you have reason to want someone dead, let alone this situation.

I think we're reading different books.

*checks book*

Oops, my fault. It just looks like I'm not picking-and-choosing.

Lev.20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Deuteronomy 22:23-24
If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her; Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city.

I was just thinking of the Israelites being reprimanded for celebrating the deaths of the Egyptians, who had been their captors for generations. Then again, any document that old and added onto that much is bound to have some contradictions.

Because, you know, Jesus only loves you when you hate others.

What a nutter.

 

[Bobtowna]

I just had to watch all of this. That guy was a fucking whack-job.

I hope he goes to prison for threatening the prez.

Religious people screw up most things because they want EVERYONE under THERE way of life. >_>

Not all of us. I'm a religious man myself, and I am appalled at this news story. This man is insane, just listen to him. He's a fanatic. And fanatics act irrationally. This man's words chill me to the bone. No good religious person would ever pray for that. That is not what we believe.

I thought that praying for someones death is agains certain religions laws/rules/principles.

My thoughts are that people shouldn't pay attention to idiots like that.

People don't.

CNN does.

[sup]and Fox News too[/sup]

Point taken. But won't the people that watch those "news" channels pay attention to him?

Yeah, I suppose so.

I really hate American media; or at least, I hate CNN, MSNBC, and Fox. Besides BBC (which is pretty coo'), I haven't watched many other news networks to form an accurate opinion.

You should watch the good news stations like The Colbert Report or The Daily Show with Jon Stewert. (they are comedy shows but give better news than most other real networks, and they entertain you while doing it.)

Calling Obama a "socialist devil" THAT annoyed me.

 

[Asickorphan]

I don't like the idea of abortions but thats no reason to wish someones death!

 

[Marble Dragon]

...And he calls himself a Christian leader. He's forgetting a few points. First of all, God isn't your instant I'm Right card. You have no way of knowing how God feels about anything. Second of all, you aren't supposed to preach your word to the people, you're supposed to preach God's. There's more that I don't feel like listing now.

I think the ten commandments say "Thou shalt not kill" well i guess God would do the smiting....i think it works both ways

You know what, I always suspected that if it came down to a competition between me (the horrible non-believer (and person)) and some of these people, Jesus would pause, laugh, and just toss us all into Hell as equals.

Really? I always just assumed that, should that happen and my belief system is totally wrong, Jesus would be like, "Ah, fuck, close enough. Hop in the jacuzzi."

 

[Low Key]

I'd be outraged, except 25% of American presidents have been shot while in office. Seems like it's just the dangers of the job and the idiocy of some people.

 

[Rooster Cogburn]

"socialist devil"

Seriously? Seriously?

 

[Godavari]

"Oh, no! A president that's trying to give health care to the poor and needy despite all the rich asshats who don't want him to! This must be the work of the Antichrist!"

Sometimes I just want to shot some people.

Good, it's about time someone dealt with "President" Obama and his socialist fascist ways.
GOD BLESS HIM AND GOD BLESS AMERICA

No but seriously, this shit is frightening. Is it just me or do the fundies have absolutely no understanding of how Christianity works? Isn't there some thing, with Moses, "thou shalt not kill" or something? Nah, what do I know.
