    Many of these guys would hide behind closed doors and participate in the very acts that they so called condemn. One thing for sure he’s open to telling you the truth and that’s something that has been missing for along time.

    I'm afraid that the only thing that will shift the course we are all on right now, is revolution.

    First I just want to say I personally do not have a problem with him that was a choice that he made and I love the man but if he's going to start quoting the Bible he needs to go back and read it because it is God's word not man's word not my words but God's words so as a Christian I love everybody no matter what you are who you are I love everybody everybody has sinned no matter what even me I'm a sinner but I'm a forgiven sinner and it's the sinful nature that gets people in trouble .
