Gubernatorial candidate threatens Elton John
Albuquerque News.Net
Sunday 14th March, 2010
A candidate for governor in Atlanta, Georgia has been arrested for allegedly threatening singer Elton John.
Neal Horsley, 65, an anti-abortion campaigner, has been arrested and charged with terror threats, criminal defamation and using the Internet to make the threats.
The arrest came after Mr Horsley published a document on his WeChooseLife website, entitled: "Why Elton John Must Die."
He also protested outside Elton John's Atlanta apartment, holding a poster saying: "Elton John Must Die."
It is believed the Horsley posting went up after Elton John, who lives part-time in Atlanta, created a controversy in an interview by saying that he thought Jesus was a "compassionate, superintelligent gay man who understood human problems.”
In his posting, Horsley retorted: “What Elton John has done is desecrate the image of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
He added if John, 62, had been a Muslim, making similar comments, he would have had a death sentence placed on him.
Mr Horsely is now on bail.  Email this story to a friend

Ignorance Again...
What about love your neighbor as yourself be true? The Bible speaks that Homosexuallity is an abomination to Father God. But again, Ignorance is taking presidence. What a value to help saves lives, and then put yourself in the position of an abortionist/butcher who kills the innocence before they have a chance in this lifetime. People like Elton John make it up as they go along the way of misreading Scripture to keep their own perversion of putting private things where waste goes into the draught. Aids? Well, if dung was a keeper, then we would have more of it in the family. Think about that statement my friends in Christ Jesus.

I say
I know Jesus. I am he.
What he wants is for this man to shake hands with that man, and before you judge this man or that man, shake hands with the man you are an adversary to. Gay men are very womanly inside. Yet need more manly truth to go with it. Such is why we have relationships with people who balance us. For man and women will someday be one. Sex has nothing to do with it.
All will be one. And I will make it so.
Such that the weather speaks of change, so is change coming. Once you raise up who is the son of man, and recognise him as living as he truly is. Even the church fear me. Perhaps it is they who fear me the most. So in there fear they cannot see me. Can you see me?

Go George
The problem with tolerance is that it allows sexual perverts to continue spreading perversion. Damn all of you who allow this perversion to continue.Look at this country now, brainwashed by the tolerant. Judgement is set. God has his own version of a smart bomb.

I did'nt know
I had know idea that such a good christian man like Mr. Horsley would agree with such muslim violence as taking a life over words. I’m pretty sure if God is that upset he can take care of Mr. John on his own. I thought vengence was Gods not MANs.

thumpers are idiots
Elton John says Jesus was gay, big deal
so some Jesus loving lunatic wants him dead?
how very Christian of him
Jesus probably never existed, and if he did he was surly gay for Judas
