It has come as no surprise that the Religious Right has been up in arms over President Obama’s recent announcement in support of marriage equality, but what seems to have really upset them was his citation of the Bible’s “do unto others” teaching in explaining his views.
Today, on Liberty Counsel’s “Faith and Freedom” radio program, Matt Barber blasted Obama for daring to cite the Golden Rule in support of gay marriage, saying that in doing so “President Obama has called Jesus a liar” and engaged in heresy:
An LGBTQ Nation media partner.

Matt Barber can suck it
Jesus never was……so, whatever this asshats argument is, it’s moot.
“Matt” is something that you wipe your feet on.
Really? I mean…really?
Jesus never commented on homosexuality, so his viewpoint is ridiculous
I FUCKING LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE ASSUME THINGS. Well done, Barber.
Why do we find weirdos to listen to???
wacko!!!!
Who is this retard? Maybe I live in a cave but I have no idea who this loser is. Religion has been responsible for so many wars and deaths that I don’t even believe in organized religion anymore. Too many damn freaks who interpret the Bible as they want and hurt others.
Matt Barber: Douche
People will do and say anything just to be known
Wow These people amaze me. 1) That they actually have enough time to waste obssessing about gay people and 2) That they Really and truly consider themselves “Christians”.
It seems to me that this Matt Barber has it wrong. Obama isn’t in the wrong because he now “supports” gay marriage; Obama is in the wrong because he actually believes America thinks he is sincere with this “evolution” of ideals. What has he really accomplished for the LGBT community since his bid for presidency in 2008, when he was so adamant about marriage being between a man and a woman?
No buddy it looks like you are the liar and also u accused Obama of Heresy who was the one who just did it…uh you with your using the bible to fit YOUR viewpoint when the passage selected was clearly talking about something totally different..DIVORCE which is the result of 50% of heterosexual marriage!
@Theresa Please don’t insult the mentally disabled by comparing them to this Neanderthal.
op op op. Jesus came about in the New Testament, homosexuality is ‘discussed’ mainly in the old testament. And as a Christian, whatever happens in the N.T SHOULD precede anything in the O.T. So technically speaking, Obama did not call Jesus a liar, because he never said one word of the topic, other than spreading the message of building the Kingdom of God by loving in serving others. Which, I’m sure is like, the only basis of ‘getting into heaven’. Not who was a homosexual or who wasn’t -_- there ya have it, sincerely, least that’s what they teach me in school. djghsdg
Heterosexual men and wemon can have children at any time of the day with out any thought. If you are a heterosexual man or woman you can get marride as many times as you want.
Oh wait! Jesus never said a damn thing about homosexuality OR gay marriage! This is what we call an Opinion Fail, Mr. Barber.
He should read the book he’s spouting from
hayley bartek , he has accomplished more for lgbtq community then any other sitting world leader… maybe you nee dto pull your head out of the republican closet and see what he has actually done..https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=359338667439664&set=a.277132635660268.67286.100000906002639&type=3&theater
@hayley Pres. Obama and his administration have made over 70 policy changes/bills/laws in favor of the GLBT community. Maybe next time you should at least google it before you speak of something of which you know nothing about. Here’s a link for you:

That makes him the most gay friendly president of all time!
Is it me or do the Repubs sound more n more desperate everytime they open their mouths? There are a lot of biblical quotes made by these idiots that are not appropriate for our times. And so out of context its ridiculous!!
Absurd.
gh just shut the hell up already. He’s done more good then you have you stupid jerk!
Mary, I was thinking the same thing–desperate!
It’s funny that i was raised to these kind of beliefs and bought into it a little. Then i grew the fuck up started thinking for myself. These arguments are just getting dumber and dumber. I can’t wait till I see Dan savage fire up Brian brown on national tv . It will be great
It seems in my 10 years of going to Baptist church i understand more about the bible than most of these crazy bible thumpers. And I because I understand it. I don’t buy into it anymore
The bible is fiction and Jesus is a man in Mexico….
Jesus is a lie, not a liar.
pitiful
get off your silly soap box
*eye roll*
Jesus as we read in the Bible never spoke about LGBT issues. He said we should live up to the 10 Commendments and the most important one is to ‘love ur neighbour as urself’. Another one is: ‘Do not tell lies’.
Religious idiots…
I dislike Obama with a 100% and im Gay. the man has Lied about everything he has said about the GLBT pepole. and im also Christian and it dosent sup-prize me that Dislikes Jesus cuz obama believes in allah
