Well, yes and no. In theory we choose those who lord over us, but in practise it's quite different.skirtyscot wrote:BTW, isn't civil government chosen by people, using the free will which God gave them? So not by God. I'm sure anyone could argue against him using the Bible or theology, and that was just one that sprung to mind. The guy ain't worth any more of my mental effort.
In the US, he's covered by the First Amendment, basically until he starts telling people to go hurt people. He was advocating for laws, which would then be enforced by cops and the courts. And telling people to report lawbreakers is a lot different from taking the law into your own hands, vigilante or lynch mob style. Technically, from what I read, he's legal. Then again, I'm no lawyer.Ray wrote:That’s incitement to violence which is a criminal offence in the UK. He might well end up in jail here for spouting such vile garbage.

Just sayin'
Not only does he have his right to free speech, but also his right to freedom of religion. He was, after all, in his own church when he made the comments, and as much as we may disagree with the message, Mr. Fritts is dead on accurate. The bible does say exactly the things that he says it says. Indeed, God does "hate fags". Yes the scriptures also law down other commandments of love, charity, and the like, but that's the problem with the scriptures. They're full of contradictions. Like Islam, the bible also condones the execution of infidels (non Jews) Deuteronomy 17:2-7, and before someone says that's that "Old Testament stuff" I remind you that Christ said himself that he has come not to abolish the law, but to fulfill it. Matthew 5:17Stu wrote:In the US, you have the right to free speech laid down in your First Amendment. That is a solid principle and one which you should love and uphold. The right to free speech is tested from time-to-time when someone like Mr Fritts expresses such ridiculous and unpleasant views, but we must never be tempted to bring to bear the force of law to silence him. Let him say what he thinks, and then let him know why he is wrong.
