“A pastor who uses his Internet platform to teach political lessons based on conservative Christian ideology has proposed a constitutional amendment to punish LGBT people for “ten years in prison at hard labor.”
In a video posted to his PreachingPolitics.com website last month that was flagged by the Good As You blog on Monday, Pastor Michael V. Williams asserts that Christians have been “increasingly tolerant” of gay people over the last 50 years.
“Whereas homosexuality used to be a felony in every state — referred to as sodomy — it has now been decriminalized, and homosexuality is allowed to be openly expressed in public,” he notes. “While Christians are becoming increasingly tolerant of homosexuals, homosexuals are becoming increasingly intolerant of us.”* The Young Turks hosts Ana Kasparian and Ben Mankiewicz (Turner Classic Movies) break it down.

How about Christians getting punished for ten years in prison at hard labor just for being Christian? You sure wouldn’t like that, would you…unless you consider it an honor to “suffer for Christ”, as if that alone will make up for the sorry lack of displaying the true spirit of Christ to the undeserving of recipients?
