Aaron Fruh, Alabama Pastor, Says Gay Marriage Brought 'Noah's Ark' Flood
So is he talking retroactively as gay marriage didn’t exist then? What I think did exist is incest cause I can’t think of any other way those families multiplied starting with Adam and Eve who had two sons. Blasphemous I know.

“A right-wing pastor has come to Chick-fil-A's defense, not only applauding the Atlanta-based fast food company for its anti-gay views but also claiming that same-sex marriage brought about the great flood referenced in the biblical narrative of Noah's ark.

Aaron Fruh, a pastor at Knollwood Church in Mobile, Ala., spoke out against marriage equality on American Family Radio, challenging listeners to "find any society in human history that ever tried that experiment and lived to tell about it, they've all been destroyed," according to Right Wing Watch.
Identifying the "society just prior to the flood of Noah" as the only one prior to the present to offer same-sex marriage, Fruh went on to note, "God knew that the people on the earth were going to destroy themselves through same-sex marriage, and so that's why he brought the flood."…cont…

Humans have such limited imaginations, really.

Except for some evangelical pastors. Their imaginations are hugh!!

3. I have heard evangelists say that the flood is the reason the earth
spins on its axis on a slant, as opposed to being straight up and down as it spins.

Mind you, the Bible does not say that. Only some evangelists say that.

Making up physical evidence is just as scientific as finding physical evidence, right?
