from the Washington Blade

According to the http://www.huffingtonpost.com/john-shore/george-michael-christians-for-moral-america_b_1119226.html?ref=religion">Huffington Post, the Twitter account for a Christian entity called “Christians for a Moral America” has posted several messages to the social network regarding the ill health of pop icon George Michael.

A user who goes by ‘Keith’ in Minnesotta operates the https://twitter.com/#!/GodsWordIsLaw">GodsWordIsLaw Twitter account and posted several inflammatory messages on November 26th wishing for the 48 year old ‘Faith’ singer’s death.

“Apparently George Michael has AIDS. Figures since he’s a homosexual and it goes with the territory. Another sodomite bites the dust?” https://twitter.com/#!/GodsWordIsLaw/status/140583268570497024">the first of three Saturday tweets read.

“Once George Michael bites the dust, it’ll be the perfect time to roll out new anti-sodomy ads. This lifestyle is clearly dangerous” read https://twitter.com/#!/GodsWordIsLaw/status/140584293503209472">another tweet. “Pray for George Michael’s demise. He has chosen a satanic lifestyle and must meet an appropriate end” read https://twitter.com/#!/GodsWordIsLaw/status/140584651684184064">the final tweet on the subject before the user became in several arguments with Twitter users responding to the offensive material.

However, Christians for a Moral America seems not to be an organization at all, but a http://christiansforamoralamerica.blogspot.com/">conservative blog run by a single user on Google’s Blogger platform.

1. I'd put the ironic quotation marks around 'Christian'

[joeybee12]

2. Assholes..knr

[William769]

3. Fundamentalist they are.

Christians they are not.

Recommended.

8. That's what always irks me. Headlines are often about those who are truly

evil masquerading under the cloak of being Christians. I'm not a religious person at all, but I've know some very nice religious people. It really annoys me that for many religions are hate group cults they belong too.

4. Do they also ask for donations?

There are so many "groups" out there that look to me like a front to get a conversation going and then ask for donations to fight whatever's the violation-du-jour.

Christian groups and Repugs seem to be good at that.

5. It's probably Larry Craig with a laptop.

n/t.

6. there are so many sick mean spirited people in the world unforgettably

[RKP5637]

11. Somehow it seems there are a lot more anymore than I remember as a kid. Maybe it's

just that the Internet and MSM of today give them more visibility. It seems every corner one turns today there is hatred, just endless hatred and inflexible points of view.

7. "another ..bites the dust?"

Hey Keith in Minnesotta - are you a 'Queen?'
:rofl:

[patrice]

9. It's hard to know what to say about such profound, and yet SELF-righteous, UGLINESS. nt

[closeupready]

10. It's Satanic to celebrate the death of anyone. So not sure why

they call themselves "Christian". Anyone want to venture a guess? :shrug:

[NMMNG]

12. Apparently a "moral" America includes wishing death on others

:puke:

[Initech]

13. WTF is wrong with these people?

[Sub Atomic]

14. How very Christian of them.

[Rowdyboy]

15. I'm embarrassed to associate myself with Christianity becaue of these asshole....

Total fuckwads
