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.

    Christians will tell you "nooo, you send yourself to hell!"

    Oh, do I? Ok, then I choose not to go to hell no matter what my life choices are. "nooo you will go to hell for that!"

    The religious fundamentalists are beyond reason.

    Yup, and they're completely missing the point too: regardless of who does the sending, if it weren't there in the first fucking place, this would be a non-issue. You're unfortunately correct: fundamentalists are completely beyond reason, mostly because they've been hijacked by some sort of unchecked stolen concept fallacy with regards to their epistemology.

    The trouble with fundamentalists is that they don't seem to grasp the fundamentals.

      Fundamentalists are, however, quite mental.
