The evening after the massacre at Orlando's Pulse nightclub, a California pastor took the opportunity to preach that "God said: When you find a sodomite, put them to death.'" A video of the sermon was uploaded by the church, then deleted "for violating YouTube's policy on hate speech." A copy of the video uploaded by someone else, describing the sermon as "despicable," was allowed to remain.

You're confusing Judaism with Christianity. Mark 7:15, [mcgrewbooks.com] in Christ's own words, "There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man."
What this preacher does wrong is HATING. A Christian is supposed to love EVERYONE and hate only sin, that we're all sinners.
Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing, sometime they're standing on the pulpit preaching the exact opposite of what Jesus taught.
