I wonder if Swaggart was quoted accurately.

Swaggart is such a sleaze it's hard to defend him no matter what he rants about. For him to be saying anything about anyone's sexual proclivities is absurd.

Any comments that Swaggert made about killing homosexuals should certainly be condemned. Next, we should find out if these Canucks condemn comments about killing anyone who disagrees with their "anything goes" philosophy. Or if they've ever heard of the concept of free speech (they haven't). Maybe these SOBs should consider a 1st amendment. Oh, wait. That would require a bill of rights, wouldn't it?

and tell God he died

Jimmy operates independently of God, apparently.

These ridiculous prosecutors, district attorneys and judges, they should have to marry a pig forever!

He should know, he's hired enough of them for the evening.

According to a transcript of the program, the flamboyant evangelist said: ... "I've never seen a man in my life I wanted to marry. And I'm gonna be blunt and plain; if one ever looks at me like that, I'm gonna kill him and tell God he died."

Yeah, I think we can call that one "over the top" if this transcript is accurate.

Stay the heck off my side, Swaggart.

I'm against gay marriage, but Swaggart's hysterical rant just hurts the pro-marriage cause. Get a grip Jimmy! Also he's a total hypocrite and scumbag, as others have already pointed out. Still free speech is free speech, and as long as Swaggart didn't actually call for violence against gays, then his little rant should be protected. Of course that's how it would be in the US. In Canada there is no free speech anymore - hate speech codes are the rule of the land. I have a good friend who has dual citizenship and he told me of a case where a Canadian man ran a newspaper ad that solely consisted of Bible verses about homosexuality. Nothing but the Bible. This man was fined under the hate speech laws for the ad.

We are now getting to the heart of what "separation of church and state" TRULY means. Although I don't agree with Mr. Swaggart on many of his thoughts, he has (or used to have) the perfect right to speak his religious beliefs without persecution or threat of legal action from the state.

Yeah -- as though this isn't hyperbole??

Get real.

gay marriage aside, this is telling about his relationship with the creator -

Jimmy - its hate the sin - love the sinner......remember ?

Just more truth spoken in love from our evangelical bretheren. Fact is, some homo out there might just not have heard for the 15,000th time how evil and perverse his or her behavior might be, and some in the congregation might be getting fuzzy on just how vile those child-corrupting sickos are, and how they want to destroy marriage--at least, what's left of it after all our evangelical divorces. Keep it coming, holy prophets! Speak that truth in love. Oh, of course, the words themselves are everything but loving, but that's what they need to hear!

Of course, we are all sinners, yadayada, but we all know that nothing we do approaches the sinfulness of those homos. There's sin, and then there's sin.

His earnings and reputation were diminished in the late 1980s when he was twice caught in motels with prostitutes.

If Jimmy was a Christian, he'd be pumping gas for a living. But he's a wolf in sheep's clothing still duping enough senile old ladies to keep his scams afloat. I would not want to be Jimmy come judgment day.

I've never seen a man in my life I wanted to marry.

So he's not attracted to men, a matter of taste? What about taste? Judging by his taste in hookers... That was one skank whore that even Penthouse couldn't make look good.

I don't know about this latest incident, but Swaggert has been known to preach strongly against his own weaknesses in the past.

Swaggart seems to have missed his true calling. He needs to join the religion of peace and start on the path to becoming an Imam or a Mufti. Then he could say whatever he wants in Kanuckistan.

I'm amazed he's still in business selling snake oil.

Jimmy's in the hole. He has to do something to get attention. The last time I saw him on TV, he looked awful and sounded worse.

Swaggart hurts his cause more than anything else with comments like this:

"I've never seen a man in my life I wanted to marry. And I'm gonna be blunt and plain; if one ever looks at me like that, I'm gonna kill him and tell God he died."

Bump and ping.
