    I know my grandfather got a ridiculously good deal on the property, but damn it would have been nice if his summer home, and my parent’s home was somewhere other than Indiana.

    (Ridiculously good deal as in 28.8 acres with a house and a half, plus a few barns that were built between 1844-1850, for $10,000 in 1948 or 1949)

    “There’s nothing good to be proud about being a f****t. You ought to blow yourself in the head, in the back of the head. You’re so disgusting,” Stephen Falco said from the pulpit.

    10-1 odds on Stephen’s (repressed) sexuality? Anyone? Anyone?

    Sure sounds like their actions run contrary to their tax exempt status. The IRS should know…

    The fact that these extremists are calling for action against the LGBTQ+ community is unsettling, but not surprising. The “God hates fags” groups have been around forever, but now they livestream on the biggest social network in the world. A social network which has removed meaningful moderation, and given bigots the go-ahead to say slurs such as tranny with no repercussions. They will absolutely radicalize more people, and it will lead to more violence.

    They’ll come for Obergefell—one of the SCOTUS justices has already signaled for it. It’s only a matter of time. Coming after trans people was just to get their foot in the door.

    The transcript is heinous.

    An Indianapolis church is calling for members of the LGBTQ+ community to be put to death or to kill themselves.

    Local faith leaders are condemning the message.

    The call was made during a recent sermon titled “Pray the Gay Away” inside Sure Foundation Baptist Church on the northwest side of the city.

    “There’s nothing good to be proud about being a f*****. You ought to blow yourself in the head, in the back of the head. You’re so disgusting,” Stephen Falco said from the pulpit. He was speaking during the church’s “Men’s Preaching Night.” The event was streamed live on their Facebook page.

    “A bunch of f****** that want to come around, walk on our streets, and demand our children, and we should walk in the eye and say, ‘No, you’re not going to have our children,’” he said.

    Falco continued to call for the death of the queer community.

    Following the sermon, I-Team 8 reached out to the church about Falco’s message.

    “He’s only calling for the death penalty and suicide for the actual sodomites (homosexuals),” the church said in an emailed statement. “The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government.
