Unlikely. Notice how his initial instinct was to pray for my enlightenment, rather than his own.

He’s the sort that I don’t pay a lot of attention to, basically I’ve just been vaguely aware that he’s a right-wing troglodyte in the Trumpist mold. But …

… unless this is a joke, which it certainly would be if it came from any normal person, I suppose one must also add “sanctimonious deranged theocrat”. I guess it explains the homophobia. Complete absence of cognitive brain function probably explains the political leanings and most of the rest.

Dear Fake Christian,

Keep your fake prayers. When you openly ignore things like the Eighth Commandment, you can fuck right off with your false piety and sanctimonious bullshit.

Yours truly,  
One Who Follows The Actual Teachings Of Christ

That’s what you call “love”?

“I don’t HATE you, I just don’t want you to have any rights – I want to be able to discriminate against you, and treat you like a second class citizen. But it’s all because I love you.”

Take your “love” and stick up your ass sideways.

Sorry, you hateful piece of shit, but you hate gays. You can dress it up all you like in biblical bullshit, but you hate them.

Your claim that you love all people is, in a semantic sense, about as convincing as Pol Pot calling his country Democratic Kampuchea, or North Korea calling itself the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

Or suggesting that by merely existing the way they were born, they’re committing a mortal sin and will suffer in hell for all eternity, deservedly so, and “I’m praying that you’ll repent.”

Shove your insincere, sanctimonious, self-righteous bullshit straight up your ass that I’m sure is aching for a cock since you seem to consider it a choice (that you’re not making by pretending to be straight), you loathsome piece of shit **Flyer.**

Grab 17 Republicans and ask them if “The Lord helps those who help themselves” is in the bible or not.

They’re constantly rewriting the one they actually use, it’s just a little different from the official version.

Depends on the location of the grab, if you grab them in certain places, they’ll just let you.
