Sometimes stereotypes are true.
Here is a case in point, to wit, someone who appears to be - assuming that no significant material has been edited out - a loudmouth, ignorant, redneck, bigotted preacher, calling for gays and lesbians to be segregated behind a high electrified fence until they "all die out."
Given the precedent they've established with threats to burn down churches that sport far, far less offensive ideas, this guy will undoubtedly be on the receiving end of hate mail and death threats.
This article says that will probably be the case:
“I was horrified. I was shocked,” Laura Tipton, member of the group, told CBS Charlotte. “I was hurt to hear him say such horrible things about the LGBT community. Those words were absolutely horrific.”
The group will be holding a protest against the church this upcoming Sunday morning. Tipton is expecting some 250 people to show up.
Actually, the reprisals appear to have already started: it seems that the Providence Road Baptist Church's website is down, either because of a cyber-attack or because of the interest caused by the article, or both.
Incidentally, the article reports:
The church’s website says, “We offer NO apologies in believing the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible is the inerrant Word of God.”
My interaction with King James Onlyists has left the impression that those people would like to put a lot of people on the other side of behind that fence.
What a world of difference between Pastor Worley's video and this Michael Voris video:
But I suspect that the nuances that Voris makes will be lost on the zealots of both sides.
