Mark Dankof, a Lutheran pastor and political activist, declared the Jews to blame for the Supreme Court's ruling on Friday which declared any law to ban gay marriage unconstitutional.
Speaking to reporters from Iran's Press TV, Dankof insisted that Jewish influence and money were being used to destroy Christian culture and values globally.
"It should not be ignored that the victories for abortion on demand and LGBT rights are reflective of the disproportionate influence of Jewish power, money, and activism in the United States," he declared.
“The key Jewish role played in the mainstreaming of abortion, LGBT, and pornography in the United States may be documented in Google search, especially in looking at the Frankfurt School and its Institute for Social Research,” added Dankof.
Dankof declared that Russian President Vladamir Putin is one of few national leaders who recognize the threat of Jewish power.
“I believe Mr. Putin is a key ingredient in destroying this global threat, and restoring cultural integrity and national sovereignty to his country, and providing a model for defeating the Zionist agenda globally,” he concluded.
Prior to the Supreme Court decision there were 13 states with official gay marriage bans in place. These bans have now been declared unconstitutional and same-sex couples will be allowed to marry freely across the United States.
The ruling is the latest milestone in the gay rights movement. In 2010, Obama signed a law allowing gays to serve openly in the US military. In 2013, the high court ruled unconstitutional a 1996 US law that declared for the purposes of federal benefits marriage was defined as between one man and one woman.
Greatest? You should probably get out more.
Got a breakdown? Ran all the camps? Got a list of 'Lutherans' in the Totenkopf SS? Hyperbole.
While your attitude is sensible and solidly conservative, I find Islam to be an exception to the rule. Not that individual Muslims cannot be judged favorably on their individual merit, but the religion itself is totalitarian and brutally so.
Yes, I would leave islam out of my comments, lol! I was basically referring to freepers who seem mostly to be Protestants, Catholics and Jews.
I was wrong
Jews can be apostate
It is not derived from apostle
They are both derived from same root
You should probably read a little history.
He is not LCMS. Apparently he was educated at a non-Lutheran seminary and is part of a very fringe group that calls themselves Lutheran, specifically LMS-USA. My quick internet review suggest this group has at most three small congregations. Other than as click bait — it worked from me — I do not know why this person is covered. I hope it was not to create divisions.
That is evident in numerous ways. The church in San Antonio that he (supposedly) pastors is listed on the LCMS roster, however. Since the LCMS generally doesn't suffer fools well, I am sure he is on the synod radar.
How many? And how many Catholics did the same?
And yet Catholics have had their fair share of anti-semites as well. Look up Johann Eck. German Catholic theologian, staunch opponent of Luther and the Reformation, and a pretty big anti-Semite himself. Also,look at what some of the various Popes and other Catholic figures have said and done. Here are some examples:

Christians in general have had a history with the Jews that certainly isn’t to be very proud of.
I don’t dispute that.
It’s just that Luther’s teachings, for lack of a better word, were over-the-top anti-Semitic.
