Image 'No truth' in Obama's speech before homosexuals Jim Brown - OneNewsNow - 7/1/2009 7:20:00 AM A black evangelical Christian pastor and former NFL linebacker says there was "absolutely no truth in anything" President Obama said in his speech to homosexuals in the East Room of the White House Monday.

President Obama promised LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) supporters Monday at a White House "gay pride" celebration that he "will continue to be an ally and a champion" for their agenda, once again vowing he will repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Ken Hutcherson, senior pastor of Antioch Bible Church in Washington state, says it is "a shame" that the president is "supporting what destroys the family."

"There's absolutely no truth in anything he said, from beginning to the end," says Pastor Hutcherson. "There is no such thing as [a] biblical stance for homosexuality, if you use the Bible. If you want to use any other denomination, feel free -- but where I stand is...biblical; it is marriage between one man [and] one woman, and that is the relationship, heterosexual, that is ordained, blessed, and called by God."

In his talk, Obama acknowledged that many Americans still disapprove of homosexuality. "There are still fellow citizens, perhaps neighbors or even family members and loved ones, who still hold fast to worn arguments and old attitudes," he stated. (See related article) Hutcherson says those comments demonstrate the president has contempt for more than just conservative Christians.

"I think this president has a disdain for anyone who disagrees with anything about him -- don't just limit it to Christians and conservatives," he remarks. "Brother, this man doesn't like anyone who doesn't think he's the smartest man in the world."

Hutcherson says until conservative Christians make their small voice a dominating one, there is nothing that will stop President Obama from pushing for the legalization of same-sex "marriage."

  • BigJ- HELLO is anyone home? Kenneth didn't remove your comments, the people at the Advocate did. Watch what you say and they won't be removed. Common sense.

  • "But I say to you that if you are angry with a brother or sister, you will be liable to judgement;and if you insult a brother or sister, you wil be liable to the council; and if you say, "You fool" you will be liable to the hell of fire". Matt. 5:22

  • Excuse me but why was my previous post removed? Exactly what about it was a violation? Personally, I don't think it was but if I can say some more about the wonderful pastor. He made false claims that the Bush's White House's Office of Faith-based and Community Initiatives named him "Special Envoy for Adoptions, Familyu Values, Religious Freedom, and "Medical Relief" and he falsly represented himself as such in Lativia. He is also know to have consorted withe Lativian-based fundamentalist extremists(Russian and Ukranian immigrants in the Sacramento valley. The group is known as the "Watchman on the Walls" ??? For years he has tried to prevent pro-LGBT legislation from passing in Washington state. And hopefully nothing I said this time is a violation of the usage agreement. I would hate to hurt the wonderful pastors feelings as he spreads his message of love and tolerance.
