Bible reading spurs GOP walkout




Bible  reading  by  Republican  Rep.  Rick  Allen,  R-Ga.  spurs  GOP  walkout

 

Lawmakers hurl F-bomb, flee meeting when Scripture quoted in LGBT vote - How much longer do you think the Lord God is going to allow this perversion and American's non-repentance to continue without severe judgment upon this nation? Not ALL bad weather and quakes are created by man.

Rep. Rick Allen, Georgia Republican, created quit a stir on Capitol Hill when he pulled out a Bible passage and began reading as a way of showing fellow Republicans they ought to be ashamed for backing a spending bill that included language upholding a 'president' Obama-backed ban on government contracts absent LGBT equal rights’ protections.

 

Specifically, Allen read a passage about the sin of homosexuality – and his fellow Republicans reportedly responded by walking from the room in disgust.

 

It was f—ing ridiculous,” said one Republican lawmaker who had been in the room at the time of the reading and who had supported the LGBT measure backed by Obama, the Hill reported.


Allen read the passage during the GOP’s regular policy meeting in the basement of the Capitol with apparent attempt to shame those lawmakers who, just hours earlier, had passed the spending bill containing the LGBT protections.  “A lot of members were clearly uncomfortable and upset,” an aide to one Republican leader said, the Hill reported.

It’s not clear what specific passage Allen read but the LGBT portion of the spending bill that sparked the biblical reading was sponsored by Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, a “gay” New York Democrat, and states that nothing in the text of the appropriations measure could undercut Obama’s executive order banning 'government' contracts with those companies that don’t protect LGBT rights, same as they do for gender, race and ethnicity.

Maloney has tried on different occasions in recent days to attach the measure to various spending bills and has received the backing of dozens of Republicans along with most Democrats.

That was the reading of a Bible passage condemning the LGBT filthy ways.

The reason the Bible is so repulsive to some congress members is that they themselves are gay, trannies, or support having sex with children. What a sick bunch we have representing us in Washington D.C.. Throw the bums out.

Let's send all that voted for this bill to wherever we are at war and put them on point. They are all qualified to take the first bullet. Hey they may even get a medal. Now that is serving your country. Ken T.

Many of those Republican lawmakers of which you spoke are influenced and some may even be possessed by evil spirits, or demons.

Evil spirits and demons do not like to hear the truth of the word of God, the Bible. It makes them very uncomfortable.
