Whole Foods should counter sue for defamation or something.

I hope Whole Foods sues him for damages...

That will stop a lot of this nonsense...

Surely there must have been a better supermarket chain to sue - one in which the owner was a Republican. Whole Paycheck was a bad choice.

Actually the head of Whole Foods is a libertarian who spoke out against ObamaCare.

This ‘pastor’ is probably the only member of his church.

Or more likely he is provides ‘glory hole’ guidance.

I believe the owner of Whole Foods is a right-leaning libertarian. He just found a good way to separate liberals from their money :)

Some good info here:

http://www.getreligion.org/getreligion/2016/4/22/after-the-hate-cake-blitz-where-is-the-actual-flock-behind-pastor-browns-open-door

This pastor has no physical church, and no evidence of a congregation. Although his church does send out fund-raising pleas. This guy is a con artist through and through.

It was my understanding that a counter-suit was Whole Foods more or less immediate response. This is no run-of-the-mill hate crime hoax, it was clearly engineered with the intention of getting EZ money by means of an extortionate law suit. Da “pastor” is a scam artist. His lawyer was clearly in on the scam, and may well have aided and abetted it.

I hope Whole Foods pursues their counter-suit to the bitter end and puts his lawyer out of business, at a minimum.

Sue his candya$$ off.
Hey Whole Foods: you will not alienate normal customers by suing this criminal. You will in fact bring more customers to you. I’ll bet you won’t sue. I’ll bet you back away in fear of the wrath of the gay nazis.

They were planning to do so.

But, if you follow the link to the article, the accuser didn't just "drop his lawsuit".

He issued a statement to media apologizing to Whole Foods, and admitting responsibility for the fraud.

My guess is that was a condition set by Whole Foods for them to drop their own plans for legal action against him.

I hope they persist in that. I have no love for WF, I just think the attempt at theatrics needs to be squashed....NOT in a general way...but this one was pure opportunistic abuse.

Pastor of Satan or paganism/Marxism (irrationality) ???

No Christian can “think” sodomizing others is “good” and “moral” when the behavior/desire is satanic——removes dignity and meaning from the Sex Act-—makes sex devoid of morality and is a hatred of “the Other” (extreme sexism).

When you remove Reason from Man-—to promote such irrational, vile use of the human body—you reduce man to godless animal.

“Moral” behavior is the only “Christian” behavior and not to understand the essential element of the Natural Family (Common Sense/Reality) and to remove Natural Duty (raising one’s own genetic offspring) is pure evil (and Marxism). The Natural Family along with Natural Duty is essential for a “Just” (moral) culture.

Only Christianity created the Age of Reason/Modern Science and a true “Justice” System for ALL people. (The Kill God Postmodernists/”Progressives” knew to collapse civilization (Reason/Common Sense/Morality) in culture. Destroy the minds/thinking of children, by perverting them (operant conditioning), and getting them away from the Natural parents to embed irrational ideas of sodomy, Boys are Girls, etc., will confuse children (if they have moral parents). Artificial environment (removed from the Mother/Father paradigm before age 8) is easily WARPED and FLIPPED in children (Up is Down). Children will grow up to be Bernie Bots if in the public schools indoctrination system—incapable of a coherent, mature, moral “thought” in their empty heads.

True education was destroyed in the “school system” 100 years ago intentionally by the evil John Dewey and the Fabian Socialists who were raping all the little boys in homosexual orgies (John Maynard Keynes)...to create people who are filled with lies and misinformation and are evil, so they actually believe Up is Down and Slavery is Freedom (like the Bernie Bots).

Only Christianity was banned in our public schools and public squares as paganism/Marxism (Vice) is promoted in our “Just” (lol) Laws (which is all unconstiutional-—but so Christian Worldview will be impossible for the next generation who are raised in a toxic (vice (dependency) promoted only) culture.
