It turns out those who vehemently demand Christians be tolerant of their views and lifestyles, and force Christians to perform services under threat of legal retaliation are — and I can’t believe I’m writing this — intolerant of Christians, and refuse to provide services for them.
In a recently released video from the group Abolish Human Abortion, a pro-life advocacy group, a gay coffee shop owner can be seen berating, insulting, and forcing the removal of the Christian group because of their beliefs.
Caytie Davis and her fellows had been handing out pro-life pamphlets that targeted the homosexual community for the spread of the Gospel. I won’t pretend that the pamphlet’s designs and words were fully geared for opening up discussion with the gay community without agitation first — you can check out the pamphlet for yourself at The Liberator — but the pamphlet’s blunt message aside, the group did not bring it into the coffee shop with them.
Davis and her fellow activists, seeking to relax after handing out pamphlets, went into Seattle’s Bedlam coffee shop. According to Davis, they didn’t engage anyone, or — as previously said — bring any of their literature into the shop with them. They got their coffee, and went upstairs into the lounge area to relax.
Only minutes later, the owner of the coffee shop burst into the room and demanded they leave.
The video shows the Christian group attempting to reason with the coffee shop owner, but to no avail. In fact, it only seemed to make him angrier according to The Liberator, and soon the owner :
“So you’re not willing to tolerate our presence?” Sutherland asked.
“Will you tolerate my presence?” the man responded. Sutherland assured him they would. “We’re actually in your coffee shop,” he said.
“Really?” the owner demanded. “If I go get my boyfriend and f*ck him in the a** right here you’re going to tolerate that?”
“That would be your choice,” Sutherland answered. But the owner would not be persuaded. “Are you going to tolerate it?” he asked again. “Answer my f***ing question! No, you’re going to sit right here and f***ing watch it!”
“Well, we don’t want to watch that,” said Caleb Head, another abolitionist.
“Well than I don’t have to f*cking tolerate this!” the man said. “Leave! All of you. Tell all your f*cking friends, don’t f*cking come here.”
The abolitionists agreed to leave, but Davis took the opportunity as they left to share the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. “Just know that Christ can save you from that lifestyle,” she said.
“Yeah, I like a**,” the owner responded. “I’m not going to be saved by anything. I’d f*ck Christ in the a**. Ok? He’s hot.” I recommend you watch the video yourself to get the full experience, just know it contains all the language and explicit subject matter you read above, but uncensored.
So he’s asking them if they’d tolerate his homosexual act in public.
Whatever happened to *What we do in the privacy of our own bedroom is nobody else’s business*?
If they drag it out into public where I have to see it, then it becomes my business and no, I am not going to tolerate that.
Just wow. We see where we have to engage the conversation now. In the gutter. If it has to be done, it has to be done. If the world hates you, it hated me first, I think the scripture goes. Pity.
“Caytie Davis and her fellows had been handing out pro-life pamphlets that targeted the homosexual community for the spread of the Gospel.”
Ah yes, we never hear of the untold millions of gay men that have abortions.
This is typical of the behavior of the radical left elements of the gay community. I am not a pro-life advocate, but if anyone used bullying force and tried to assault me, as a 70 year old, I would have no trouble using my concealed carry firearm to protect and defend myself.
And your point is?
God sees this.
I recall this incident vividly. Over the top rudeness and foul behavior. The owner is either afraid of Christianity, or someone who hates everything and everyone associated with it.
There are groups to be reached by the Pro Life Word, but convincing gay men not to have abortions does not seem all that productive.
Seems to me like a waste of time.
In Seattle that is the same thing as refusing service to a black, gay or Jew. Bigotry against political beliefs are against the law.
In their twisted view, tolerance is a one way street - the highway to hell.
“Seems to me like a waste of time.”
Yeah.
Straight women have abortions
Straight men convince their girlfriends to have abortions.
Lesbians may wander, get pregnant and have an abortion.
Gay men never have abortions, not do they manipulate their boyfriends to have abortions.
Not the way to win souls. I think ‘Christian’ groups like this drive the unsaved away from Christ. As they were writing their pamphlet they should have imagined that Christ would be proofreading it before going to print.
“Whatever happened to *What we do in the privacy of our own bedroom is nobody else’s business?”
I remember asking that same question 30 years ago, and full well knew the answer. And that answer is “ Open the floodgates to fascist queer dogma along with pedophilia and bestiality. Nothing will be off the table when we open th floodgates to such evil. Because if we give into such sin, any sin as a society (lust, avarice, gluttony, rape, hate, bigotry, racism, theft and murder), that sin will only continue to breed and proliferate. Yet I was only berated by my “betters” for speaking truthfully.
sin does not always equal crime. You do understand the concept of freedom to pursue happiness and free choice. Or would you outlaw everything you think is a sin?
I believe a business owner should have the right to behave like an ass and refuse service when it is legal to do so.
I also think when they do so, they also have the right to be shunned by those who they attack. Anyone who patronizes places like this coffeeshop or the Red Hen is in essence endorsing the hateful opinions of the owner.
The best revenge is to see the thing they have worked hardest and invested the most in suffer as the result of their intolerance.
Homosexual “marriage” was, for the most part, foisted upon us by tyrants in robes. In very few locales was it decided by elected officials.
There are valid reasons for not raising it to the same level as traditional marriage. It is not the same thing. The primary interest government has in marriage is the birth and raising of the next generation. Homosexuals marriages are incapable of producing the former and inferior at the latter.
We are not trying to outlaw homosexuality. We just don’t believe it deserves the official sanction of the government.
The sodomite revolution is in our faces and demands that we approve of their behavior. It is dragging civilization into disaster. Tolerance? It’s overrated. Its our freedom versus theirs.
I was going to say that of all the sexual orientation groupings gay men are the least likely to require abortions.
