A man honored by President Obama as a "civil rights pioneer" has told a Christian ministry leader the God of the Bible is a "sinful, homophobic bigot" who needs to repent and "seek forgiveness for the pain and suffering which his sinful homophobia has needlessly inflicted upon gay people for the past 4,000 years."
The comments come from Frank Kameny, a longtime activist for homosexual "rights," who once famously said bestiality is all right "as long as the animal doesn't mind (and the animal rarely does)."
According to Peter LaBarbera, president of the nonprofit Americans for Truth, Kameny sent an e-mail to his Christian organization a few weeks ago.
Kameny, who was dismissed from his federal job as an astronomer in the 1950s because of his homosexuality, told LaBarbera, "You have the whole issue of sin, vis a vis homosexuality, 'on the wrong foot.' It is your homophobic God of Leviticus (and of the Bible as a whole) himself (herself? itself? themselves?) who is the sinner because of that homophobia."
----------------------
LaBarbera commented: "Of course Frank Kameny's outrageous statements about God are completely backwards: it is Frank who is the stubborn sinner who needs to repent. Thankfully, it is never too late for sinners to turn away from their sins and humbly accept God's forgiveness through Jesus Christ.
"However, in one sense at least Kameny is forthright about how his homosexuality-celebrating ideology stands diametrically opposed to God's plan for mankind, as revealed in the Bible. Unfortunately for Frank, he has no authority to judge sin and morality; that is the province of Almighty God alone," he said.

Great,
Now that’s another democrat taken off the streets!
Hope that he can’t vote in November!
Judgement is coming.
Man, is that perverse.
Here’s a logic lesson for Frank Kameny. Assume that God doesn’t exist, and his comment is stupid. Assume that God does exist, and his comment is incedibly stupid. Either way, it’s stupid.
incedibly = incredibly
I’m tired.
That sign will not last long where those guys are going.

Well unless this carbon unit changes, he is really going to be hating death.
The word of God when followed promotes happiness and healthy life styles.
If homosexual behaviors were not rationalized to be acceptable behaviors, millions would have been spared death from HIV/AIDs.
Frank, you seem to be unclear on the concept. God is like The Most Interesting Man in the World: Whatever side of the tracks He’s on is the right side. Even if He were to cross over, He would still be on the right side. And as always...if He disagrees with you, it is because you are wrong.
It's not called "the banality of evil" for nothing...
So, who exactly is God supposed to pray to? Baraq Sheik Obama?
In the diseased brain of Frank Kameny, that would be "Frank Kameny."
Those who reject worship of God inevitably end up worshiping themselves.
1For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
(Romans 1:21-27)
Really? Who are you to say that homophobia is wrong, and to declare who's a sinner? Putz.
