The pastor of New Hope Baptist Church in Seneca, Kansas says President Barack Obama has gone too far in supporting same sex marriage and it’s time for the U.S. government to begin killing gay men and lesbians.
Did you read the article?
He quoted scripture and said the government should follow scripture.
Frankly, as long as we follow the Protestant Work Ethic, the government's a hypocrite when it doesn't follow scripture all the way.
Are we a theocracy, or not?

We are not a theocracy and having a strong work ethic is not religion specific.
I really don't see the connection between the Protestant Work Ethic and the ravings of an insane religious wingnut.
I'm a taoist and in thirty years I went from being a dirt poor teenage kid washing dishes to put my self through culinary school,to becoming a master chef who owns several resturants.
I atribute my work ethic to my religious beliefs.
Asia has plenty of work ethic ingrained in it as well, so I'm not surprised that you account for Taoism.
Regardless, America was founded on the Protestant Work Ethic, and as much as people bash on Judeo-Christian principle today, they still take pride in saying they deserve respect because they struggled and performed good works (thereby overcoming Total Depravity).
Work ethic itself is bogus. You don't deserve respect because you struggle. You deserve respect because you're a self-forming person.
If we're going to play the religious game though, then we might as well go all out.
Umm,isn't this topic about the ravings of a religious lunatic douchebag?
I still don't understand what the PWE has to do with the ravings of an insane hatefill preacher?
We should be discussing what anti-psychotic medicine he needs,not PWE.
I vote Halidol.
Splitting hairs?
Religion is religion. If you take one part, but not the other, you're a hypocrite.
So people didn't have a work ethic before religion?

There's always a raving looney to be found in any crowd, if you go looking for one to shine the spotlight on.
Another pastor goes for the kill.

I'm not familiar with a moral work ethic preceding Protestantism in Western civilization.
If you'd like to prove it, go ahead. Otherwise, work ethic should just be interpreted as masochism and humiliation.
It's especially easy if your entire belief system is a bunch of looney nonsense. Nobody has to go looking for a crazy one, they're all competing to get in front of the spotlight.
Confucianism? That predates Christianity entirely.
Cephus, you'd be an okay guy if you could just exercise a smidge of self-restraint and MAYBE miss an occasional opportunity to insult all things religious.

“Terrorists are dangerous, the economy is a real and present danger,” Pastor Curtis Knapp told his congregation on Sunday. “But there is simply nothing other than the holocaust of the unborn which imperils the safety of our country or places our people in jeopardy as does the leader of the Western world publicly raising his fist at the heavens and declaring that the bedrock institution of society, ordained of God and meant to be protected by the state, is little more than a convention of convenience with the children of Sodom to transform the meaning of something, which is precious to Jesus Christ, and a living picture of his love for the church into a legally protected justification for perversion and a vehicle of hatred aimed directly at that love.”
