TYT: Disgusting Pastor Has "Discovered" A Cure For AIDS



"A Baptist pastor in Tempe, Arizona called for the mass extermination of LGBT people on Sunday in a sermon entitled “AIDS: The Judgment of God.”

In the sermon, which was uploaded to YouTube on Monday from Faithful Word Baptist Church, Pastor Steven Anderson said that God has ordered in the scriptures that gays should be killed, and that if humanity wants to have an “AIDS-free world by Christmas,” he said, that’s what should be done.

“Turn to Leviticus 20:13,” he says in the video, “because I actually discovered the cure for AIDS.”

it always has, except in one single country, america, and then only for a period of time. we've crossed that point some years back.

but of course, facts matter little to those who hate.

at his foul language. And they find amusement in his words because he is like Ann Coulter for Teabaggers - willing to say very publicly what they feel and think, but are unwilling to say themselves.

Things are what they appear to be.

He had been getting sick easily for years. Doctors ran this test and that test to see what was the matter. In those days testing for HIV was about the last thing done, so no one, not even Tom, was too surprised when it turned up positive.

Of course, Pastor Anderson would have been surprised. Tom was straight, white, middle class, not a drug user and even a reasonably religious Protestant. He didn't at all fit the popular profile of an AIDS victim that the Jesse Helms crowd was pushing in those days.

Tom contracted HIV through a blood transfusion during surgery for a bleeding ulcer. This was at about the same time that researchers first noticed that something was killing the gay men of San Francisco. He never blamed anyone for "giving" him AIDS. The man who donated the contaminated blood was probably gay and probably already dead by the time Tom was finally diagnosed correctly. That man also most likely donated his blood in good faith for the best of reasons. Tom quietly accepted his fate without rancor.

He's made a number of sermons slamming Jews, and by lying to actual Rabbis, he made a movie claiming Israel is a "fraud."

gets AIDS. He might be quit surprised to learn a multitude of straight people have and spread AIDS. ... but he's too fucken stupid and into his own shortcomings in life filled with hatred. This guy at one time would have been institutionalized.
