Pastor Steven Andrew of USA Christian Ministries is leading a boycott of companies which endorsed a marriage equality bill in Washington state, including Google, Starbucks and Amazon, charging them with “working against Jesus and leading people to sin and to possibly go to hell.”

Andrew, who previously claimed that “Starbucks hates God” over the company’s backing of gay rights, told the Christian Post that any company that favors marriage equality is “anti-God” and is “doing the devil’s work.”
Andrew is currently involved in a boycott against Starbucks after the coffee company began supporting a gay marriage bill proposed in Washington State. He recently added a few others to the list as well, including Nike, Google, Microsoft and Amazon, asking Christians to no longer provide business to those corporations, which he claimed promoted homosexual sin.
For Andrew, his nonviolent protests did have a “biblical warrant.” “Boycotting anti-God companies is one way a Christian lives out the First Commandment,” the author of Making a Strong Christian Nation, told The Christian Post. “If you love Jesus, you won’t give your money to those working against Jesus, our Savior.”
He believed that if the stores in Sodom and Gomorrah that openly mocked God were boycotted, they could have possibly been saved. “God calls Christians and churches to not share in the sins of others. To love God is to flee sexual immorality. If we help the wicked, then God’s Word says God judges us (2 Chronicles 19:2). God calls Christians to 100 percent love Him and to 100 percent oppose sin.”
God also called the United States to have the fear of God as a nation, but complacency with sin did not indicate fear of God, Andrew asserted.
“Ungodly politicians, Starbucks, Nike, Amazon and others are doing the devil’s work … trying to ‘change’ our Christian laws into non-Christian laws … Every Christian and church should boycott companies making light of Jesus Christ. It is unwise for a Christian to give their money to those working against Jesus and leading people to sin and to possibly go to hell.”

LOL!!!
What a joke. Ignore him and he will go away.
What an idiot. All these retarded chicken littles
Isnt he the only member of christian ministries ? lol
laughing out loud
I wonder if these so called christians realize just how ignorant they sound. The bible says not to judge….guess that part doesn’t apply!!
Oooops, my family aint gonna be happy about this.
why is it all the christian homophobic ministers look more queer then the cast on Rupauls Drag Race?
Starbucks is doing the devil’s work by charging $6 for a cup of shite coffee.
I wish preachers would.just leave us alone…and stop shoving there religion down our throats….were not bugging you…so don’t bug us and please keep you opinion to your damn selves….
well i’m going to make google my browser and all things else. don’t drink coffee but will stop in starbucks for cocoa and a pastery (that i’ll have to give to a co-worker cause can’t handle the calories or too much sugar) and start buying my books instead of heading to the library. spending a little extra for a better cause is better than allowing pastor asshole get the best of our economy and hopefully others will do the same which will put this idiot in his place. you don’t like FREEDOM pastor douche-bag, well find some place else to live! try moving to another galaxy and hopefully you’ll run out of oxygen before you get there. (not that i’d care).
love starbucks coffee!!! it is worth the 6.00 for :)
someone needs to get anonymous to take down their site. LMAO
Wouldn’t it be funny if somebody ripped the gay-bashing homo-hot-and-bothered pastor’s tongue out through his fucking asshole?
Their running out of ideas so now they blame internet sites smh
Good thing I placed an order at Amazon last night, ey? Sheesh. We have Santorum running around talking about Satan and now this fellow speaking of the devil. Hmmmmm … working hard on creating jobs and making people’s lives better every moment, I see! —– Well, let him rant. May not like what Christie “didn’t” sign in NJ, but looks like the gov in Maryland is going to sign their marriage equality bill. —– Now, where’s my Starbucks card? :)
it won’t go away, the Russian-speaking Evangelicals are preaching these same politics from their podiums in MANY churches. SHAMELESS! especially for those who came to the U.S. in search of freedom and away from discrimination… NOW they are discriminating against others by preaching anti-gay politics from their tribunes.
okay, they’d blame anything they could. they’d blame a pot of beans for this…..that is, if the beans taste good
At least in hell I can search for things to buy while drinking some over-priced, yet bitchin’ coffee :D
And i can only hope they keep on what they’re doing. This right up there with ‘Tinky Winky is Gay’
Well if doing Satan’s work is fighting for equality then I’m proud to do Satan’s work
I agree with you Vannessa! When I found out by buying Star Bucks I supported gay marriage I was like Hell Ya I am buying more Cofee!!!
When these people open thier mouth it just makes the argument for birth control just that much stronger .
I wonder if he’d let a gay doctor save his life? Or a same sex couple raise his kids over a crack whore and her pimp? Or let a gay lawyer defend him and win in a court trial? These “Christians” are nuts and ignorant. I think we in the LGBTQ community need to do more public service announcements about who we really are and what we contribute to society! Knowledge is power and helps break barriers.
Well I’m buying more overpriced coffee then
I can imagine him throwing holy water at his computer -,- the idiocy of some people
any company he boycotts I’ll add to my shopping list.
mmmmm Starbucks!
i wish these idiots would just shut the fuck up!! i am so sick of seeing these so called christians spreading their hate and ignorance. with out using the bible or religion in any other way I want to know what is wrong with gay marriage.
Have fun living in hell, you hateful bastard!
People like this just help us open our eyes and see all the BS that is going on and will just add more fuel to our standing up for ourselves and the ones we love.
Omg and he whom are most priests and pastors are like pedafiles and shit and we get judge he is a red blood bleeding human the.bible does say only god can judge me and honestly I feel if he dont walk on water what do I care of what he thinks he is just afraid as all ppl are that he would have to swallow reality and realize we “the lgbtq” community are just ppl wanting acceptance and equality like every one else!! Point blank!!
Lets get back to to the law and quit legislating morality. Havent they figured it out that GOD will sort it all out in the end!
whatever Pastor Andrew you should play bingo and leave us gay people alone.
Hahaha this guy has no clue the devil is actually working through him…
I feel sorry for his family members that are LGBTQ , so he is going to send them to hell???? Nice way to preach .. What happen to forgive ….Well those that condemn are those that get condemned.. These preachers need to read a bit closer and understand there word better and start making way to heaven and not hell cuz we live in hell now .. so only place to go is HEAVEN…
..going to hell for our sins effects ALL Regardless of who we are .. LGBTQ or STRAIGHT ..every choice we make every day about what we choose to do is gods determination whether we enter the gates of heaven or hell… not others to judge!..Stop hating
Oh who cares? These people are part of a slowly dying movement.
enough with bigotry
Does this bigot have any idea of the census number for LGBT people in the state of Washington? Guess not!
I love Joseph Cantito’s profile picture!
Narrow minded people need to wake up! This is not a choice as you may think. God created everyone in His own image. Deal With IT!!
Seriously Dude…..Christian Laws….The last time I checked there was seperation of Church and State….I guess he won’t see this as he is boycotting most companies, I am sure FB will be next on his narrow mided list :)
“boycotting these companies is how christians can follow the first commandment”. I’m sorry when did Starbucks or the lgbtq community for that matter claim to be God? I missed that memo.
What a loser…Pathetic.
My great great aunt Goldie used to say that TV was the Devil’s work.
It doesn’t matter if were all straight, gay or lesbian as long as were happy. I will support all the gays n them. I’m proud to b the way I am..I am very happy with my wife.
Dear Pastor! Yes I can see that selling a cup of coffee and products on Amazon is doing the devil’s work. Look’s to me like your doing more than your share deciding who Jesus love and who he doesn’t. You should start looking for a new job cause I’m sure jesus loves everyone not just people with your view. God Bless You! You’re definately going to need it!
Stop using Google and stop going to Starbucks.
I find it funny that not but a few weeks ago I saw that Google was one of the top 5 sponsors for the GOP convention. Maybe they are an equal opportunity donator
