Robert Jeffress: Gay Wedding Cake Wars Will Escalate Into Full-Fledged Holocaust Against Christians

Prominent opponents of same-sex marriage continue to go out with a bang.

Earlier we told you about a pledge signed by anti-LGBT leaders who claim they would go to jail in defiance of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in favor of nationwide marriage equality.

Among those who signed the pledge was the Rev. Robert Jeffress, senior pastor at First Baptist Church of Dallas.

Jeffress also recently made yet another appearance on Fox News, where host Sean Hannity responded to Bill Maher's claim that Christians aren't really being persecuted in America, according to Mediaite.

Jeffress agreed with Hannity and said:

“It doesn’t rise to the level of having their head chopped off by ISIS in the Middle East, but it’s all the same attitude that allows for those attacks.

“I want to remind people that, you know, the Nazis weren’t able to take the Jews to the crematoriums immediately. The German people wouldn’t have allowed for it. Instead, the Nazis had to change public opinion. They marginalized the Jewish people, disparaged them, and make them objects of contempt.”

Disrespectful to Jews
Disrespectful to anyone who suffered directly on indirectly because of the Nazi persecutions

And of course, disrespectful to GLBT+ communities.

Godwin's law, anyone?

That there was already an anti-Jewish bias in many corners of Europe - the blood libel
That doesn't exist in the US
The guy is insulting, embarrassing and it's nauseating that he's given a forum on TV to spew such drivel
I would also add Jews were a minority. Christians are the majority in the US.
He's a &@#$@#%^&@*&@#*&%^#$

Especially the Hannitary napkin. Constantly defending theocratic rule under the guise of "freedom"... *cough*.
Tell me, DU'ers, how is it Sean Hannity lives in NYC and can possibly remain ignorant to conservative's little bubble of fantasy?
Is there some Custerdome enclave he never leaves except the limo to work?
