ADDENDUM::Pastor tells gay ONE News Reporter to commit suicide - One News | TVNZ

Awe,,,how sweet, Pastor Steven has a boyfriend,,,

An openly gay ONE News Reporter has been labelled "filthy" by the pastor of a Baptist church while he was trying to request an interview for a story.

Matt McLean phoned Pastor Logan Robertson today over comments the Westcity Bible Baptist Church member made in an email to a gay Christian man who has just published a book about his faith.

Jim Marjoram wrote an email to around 400 churches but received an email back from Pastor Robertson telling him, "we are not interested in your filthy lifestyle or book."

The email went on to say, "I pray that you will commit suicide, you filthy child molesting fag."

When Mr McLean rung the Pastor to try and hear his side of the story, he was also met with a highly offensive response.

Pastor Robertson told Mr McLean he would not give an interview to a "filthy faggot" and he hoped that he too would commit suicide.

Of note is the response from the Baptist Churches of New Zealand:

,,,In the case of Pastor Logan Robertson, he is not an ordained or registered pastor of any denomination. He does not have a congregation or a church building or meeting space. He has established a church website thereby claiming to be a church. Therefore his desire to call himself a pastor is entirely fraudulent,,,It's understood that Mr Robertson has had a recent history of mental illness

So wondering what this says about our own Mr Anderson,,,hmmm? Because you see, I am mentally ill, bipolar type 1 w/ psychotic features but I have never wished for the death of any individual due to differences in beliefs.
