Pastor says Trump foes should be shot by firing squads

Law & Crime reports (here),

“A far-right pastor and conspiracy theorist who was once banned from YouTube for hate speech … [has] some thoughts about why … the Trump administration was moving to make firing squad executions a thing again in a lame-duck session. Rick Wiles believes it’s because ‘they plan to shoot some people.’ Who are those people? Simply put, Donald Trump’s opponents … leftists, Democrats, the media, scientists, and professors.”

MSN also picked up the story here.

Wiles has previously made death threats against Trump opponents and BLM protesters, and is banned from YouTube (discussed in his Wikipedia bio here.)

Isn’t advocating violence in Christ’s name blasphemy? In any case, this sort of thing gives religion a bad name, and may help explain why religion’s influence is declining (chart below).

    “..for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.” In my view, it’s not so much that religion makes people do evil, it’s that it provides a convenient excuse for nearly anything, and that lowers the bar for committing bad behavior we might otherwise avoid. So while religion isn’t required for people to be jerks, it may perpetuate jerky behavior and make it more widespread.”

    From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things, but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.

    Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covers the mouth of the wicked. The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.

    Proverbs 10:11 The words of the godly are a life-giving fountain; the words of the wicked this case does not conceal their violent intentions.
