[Opinionated Blowhard]

Why is xenophobia demonic but greed, bigotry and climate change aren’t?

[Ann Archy]

James Forbes is an IDIOT!! WHO would go to his “church”?

[xzins]

He’s a liberal,political philosopher masquerading as a minister

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Wouldn’t it be funny if pastor holier-than-thou got blown up by one of those guys we’re all so xenophobic about?

[ViLaLuz]

World Council of Churches hack?

[Capt. Tom]

Xenophobia definition, an unreasonable fear or hatred of foreigners or strangers or of that which is foreign or strange.

I guess he doesn't know what unreasonable means. -Tom

So wanting to keep your country strong and safe is demonic? This guy is clearly an apostate preaching “another gospel”.

[grey_whiskers]

He's wrong.

1) Radical jihadism *and* "Sudden jihad syndrome" are both diabolical.

2) Xenophobia is an attempt to prevent these evil forces from gaining entry to our country...to include expulsion of those already present.

3) How can Satan cast out Satan?

QED.

[headstamp 2]

This is a very dark

[xzins]

And more

This guy is synonymous with the worst of liberalism

[Jim W N]

Right. Stopping a Nazi blitzkrieg is simply xenophobia. The constitutional duty of the federal government to protect against forging invasion (Art IV, Sec 4, U.S. Constitution) is symptomatic of our Founder’s xenophobia.

This guy is an idiot and this statement is so stupid, it doesn’t deserve the space on FR - pure dribble.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Someone should tell this twit pastor two things: 1. Senseless xenophobia is demonic. 2. Senseless xenophilia is demonic. There are many sensible reasons to be xenophobic at times and many sensible reasons to be xenophilic at times.

[BenLurkin]

Is this guy demon obsessed?

[dp0622]

REPENT FREEPERS!!!! :)

I remember Rev. William Sloane Coffin and lost all respect for Riverside Church way back then.

KMA Rev.

and Z-xenophobia,” he said. “I know that xenophobia is really spelled with X, but it don’t matter how you spell it. It’s a demonic matter, no matter how you’re going to spell it

The good Reverend is not exactly a towering intellect.

[Any Fate But Submission]

A fear of strangers is healthy. He should preach Christianity in Iran for 40 days and 40 nights and perhaps his opinion of those pesky Muslim “strangers” would change.

During the gathering titled, “Stronger Together: In Pursuit of Love and Kindness,” Forbes referenced the lyrics of the 1960s musical, The Music Man, “Ya got trouble, folks, right here in River City. Trouble with a capital ‘T’ and that rhymes with ‘P’ and that stands for pool. In fact, we’ve got so much trouble that we don’t have to pick out ‘P’ for pool that rhymes with ‘T,’” Forbes said.

“I have looked and found that every one of the alphabet that rhymes with ‘T’ can give us a basis of identifying some trouble that we got right now. There’s others you know there’s eight of them B, C, D, E, G, P, V, and Z, they all rhyme with T.”

Really pathetic attempt at a ‘sermon” or especially a “homily’ ~ it sounds like a graduate from, and professor of theology; at the highly esteemed “Dr. Seuss’ Seminary”....
