Ultra-Rich Gay Activist On Targeting Christians: It’s Time To ‘Punish The Wicked’
The Federalist ^ | 7/19/17 | Bre Payton

Posted on 07/19/2017 7:25:12 PM PDT by marshmallow

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine, tech millionaire turned LGBTQ activist Tim Gill said he’s aiming to punish Christians who don’t want to participate in same-sex weddings.

For more than two decades, the software programmer has poured an estimated $422 million into various gay rights causes. After the Supreme Court ruled gay marriage legal in all 50 states in 2015, Gill turned his attention and resources to targeting Christians.

The election of Donald Trump, who claims to support gay rights but stocked his administration with anti-LGBTQ extremists, has only emboldened those looking to erase the gains of the past decade. Gill refuses to go on the defense. ‘We’re going into the hardest states in the country,’ he says. ‘We’re going to punish the wicked.’

Allow me to add some context. After the Obergefell ruling in 2015, which forced all 50 states to perform same-sex marriages, several state legislatures passed protections to ensure that those who object to participating in a same-sex wedding for religious reasons have recourse when hauled into courts or extralegal commissions for this belief. It’s these state laws that Gill and his various nonprofit entities have decided to go after — and persecute Christians along the way.

Here’s how Rolling Stone — a magazine with a history of throwing journalistic ethics and pesky things like truth and accuracy out the window to advance a narrative that fits their agenda — describes religious freedom restoration acts (RFRA): “Under the guise of right-to-worship protections, these bills offer legal cover for individuals and businesses to deny service or otherwise discriminate against LGBTQ people,” Rolling Stone‘s Andy Kroll wrote.

So Tim Gill is calling for punishment to fall on himself?

All he has accomplished is turning people like myself (who didn’t have problems with gays) anti-gay.

Neutrality, in life, is a myth. People fight one way or another on one side or another. In these dangerous times, good people must choose a side well, and then fight for it without apology.

Considering that the Courts will usually rule against the richer plaintive, this fool looks like an easy target assuming someone wanted to go up against him.
His attacks against businesses looks like a good case for a Class Action Suit.

Intel, simply trying to keep other companies from stealing their employees got them a major Class Action loss.

He’s lucky that the new covenant in the New Testament replaced this.

Leviticus 20:13 (ASV) And if a man lie with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

This is not true with Islam. They will throw homosexuals from a 4 story building, hands and feet tied.

I will very politely suggest that throwing scripture at this fool is pointless.
He will be laughing in your face all day long.
The only thing which will stop this is a Class Action Suit asking for 500M in damages.

Should be an easy win.

Once again we are reminded that in the last days good will be called evil, and evil will be called good.

As an abnormal, Tim Gill doesn’t get to redefine normal.

I agree with you. What the hell is to be gained by homosexual activists going down this road???

Hey guys, you won!!! You won the right to homosexual marriage!! Your lives are supposedly complete; older homosexuals can allegedly die happy now, as they have seen their brethren get married legally, something they say they never thought they would live to see.

So what the hell do they hope to accomplish, by going on a punitive crusade against those who aren’t on board with homosexual marriage?????

When these cowards start going after muslims as well as Christians I “may” have a little respect for them.

On the inside they are consumed with guilt and shame. Lashing out is their defense mechanism.

They will not rest until good is called evil and evil is called good, by Jesus Christ's own Church.

The Church condemns their behavior and this drives them mad.

I had recently thought about Anita Bryant. Thanks for posting that link. What he## on Earth she went through, for standing up for her beliefs/faith. And, that was how many decades ago? The militant gaystapo was a terrorist organization, even then.
