According to the Bay Area Reporter:[14]

"She said she was tired of Christians hiding behind the cross. 'When they stop Prop 8 and force priests at gunpoint to marry gays, it will be the downfall of civilization and Jesus will come back,' she said.Loud gasps were heard from the audience. Many fans walked out. 'I believe the Bible is the word of God,' Shocked continued....In response to audience reaction, Shocked offered a Spanish prayer that 'God loves you. God loves us. God loves us all everywhere.' Later, in English, she said: 'God bless us everyone.' Many fans questioned the singer out loud: 'What are you saying?' With a broad smile, Shocked said 'You are going to leave here and tell people "Michelle Shocked said God hates faggots."' That comment produced more gasps and more departures.Two-thirds of the audience had walked out by this point."

This could be taken a couple of different ways, but my interpretation is that she was concerned that people would associate her with the Phelps (no relation) bunch, but she was only speaking the same opinion that many fundamental Christians have.........

Sorry, but you are incorrect. While we may believe them to be in grave danger of Hell fire, the fact remains that we do not believe that God hates and just aches to destroy them. That view is held only by a few Hell bound, Bible denying, Gospel perverting hypocrites. And I can provide Scripture to bring my point home if you force me to. This woman is marching to the same beat as the WBC, And her judgment will be the same as theirs, unless they repent.

Sorry, my bad!! I had a long day yesterday and have yet to get to bed. I generally do not make those type of mistakes. That was a bit too obvious for a misfire as bad as mine. I still would disagree that it is mentioned as a theme in most churches most of the time. There are far too many other sins to preach and teach against. Namely the rest of the works of the flesh.

No problem.

How many churches have you been in? I evangelized for a while, pastored for 6 years, assisted for many more......and trust me, somewhere in America, every week, this is preached against, as well as the other sins of the flesh......
