Obviously this dude just needs to understand the bible is a metaphor.

Edit: Video was removed by youtube for violating their terms of service (probably hate speech).

You can read about it here:


Stedfast Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas is the place where Pastor Donnie Romero recently resigned after admitting to a night of doing drugs, gambling, and “being with prostitutes.”

His replacement was announced as Pastor Jonathan Shelley of Pure Words Baptist Church in Houston. He had his own set of problems (being an anti-vaxxer in addition to the expected anti-LGBTQ bigotry). But in a sermon delivered yesterday, Shelley went even further.

He insisted that rebellious children should be put to death because that’s what God commands in the Bible.
