‘This is gay Sharia': Conservative warns of anti-Christian fascism after marriage equality ruling

Love has won, now it’s time to shoot the prisoners.”

Conservative columnist John Zmirak took to conservative radio programs recently to caution that America is about to fall to “gay Sharia,” according to Right Wing Watch.

Now that same-sex marriage is legal nationwide, Zmirak is convinced the United States will institute a “two-tier system of religion” in which there are government-sanctioned churches and “rogue” ones, he said on conservative talk show host Joe Miller’s show Thursday.

“That’s exactly like what exists in communist China right now,” he said. “It’s like what we have in Putin’s Russia, where the orthodox church gets government favors and other churches are persecuted.”

He then invoked the Muslim code of conduct called Sharia that is often used to instill fear of a take-over, a notion the Guardian’s Nesrine Malik calls “creeping Sharia.”

Most of the gay folks I've known are pretty nice. Militant Christians, not so much.
