The words of a homophobic North Carolina preacher are reverberating around the Internet today, following a sermon in which he advocated physically assaulting toddlers with "limp wrists."
Sean Harris, the senior pastor at Berean Baptist Church in Fayetteville, is a strong supporter of North Carolina's proposed antigay Amendment One. In Sunday's sermon, Harris screams like a maniac about cracking limp wrists and punching young children who exhibit gender-variant behavior. Girls playing sports are OK, but they must attempt to look pretty, according to Harris."

This makes me wonder.....how crazy does someone have to be before christians realize "hey, this does not mesh with what the bible says"? If a teacher or a coach said this they'd be fired but it seems he got a free pass. Why do we give religion such room?
And the biggest question: what the holy hell?
