WATCH: This Christian Extremist Wants Gay Priests to Die

Right Wing Watch

In a video diatribe, Antigay Christian extremist Theodore Shoebat publicly called for the execution of gay priests and ministers.

Theodore Shoebat, an antigay Christian extremist best known for his horrific video rants and columns published by right wing blogs, called for the execution of gay church leaders on Friday. Shoebat focused primarily on gay priests, claiming the Vatican is riddled with "homosexual hornets nests."

In a lengthy and rambling video blog post, Shoebat listed multiple times he has tried to imitate other right wing video makers who ask controversial questions of unsuspecting authorities in the hopes that they'll misspeak or say something that can be twisted to fit the filmmakers ideology. Shoebat's post is full of complaints about Catholic leaders who've ignored his antics or shut him down entirely.

Shoebat claimed that gay priests and ministers are "suicide bombers" intent on infiltrating the church as a way to discredit Christianity.

"Once they become a pastor or a priest, they begin their destruction. And they only do this for one reason, and that is to make the church look bad, to make the church evil," he said in the podcast. "It's obvious that Satan knows homosexuality is evil and it's also obvious to me that these very sodomites who enter the church, they as well know that homosexuality is evil because they do this so that other people can say, 'See, this is Christianity.'"

"Civilization has no room for homosexuality." Shoebat said in the video, as he pointed out that the Catholic Church once persecuted any priests discovered to be gay. They "would be delivered to the secular authorities and put to death," he said, lamenting "it's just too damn bad that we don't have these laws being enacted any more."

As Joe.My.God. blogger Joe Jervis points out, Shoebat is a darling of other religious opponents of LGBT rights.

"Shoebat currently appears in an anti-LGBT film created by hate group leader Janet Porter which also stars Porno Pete [Peter LaBarbera], Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul, and other anti-LGBT activists," Jervis wrote. "Shoebat regularly calls for the genocide of homosexuals, atheists, and Christians who support LGBT rights. It's what Jesus would want."
