Show of support for pastor James McConnel as case continues

Someone had to say it as it is, as it really is,
it just so happens he is the one with the chutzpah to do so
He didnt beat around the bush...

He is being prosecuted under the 2003 Communications Act for his statements in a sermon which was made available online.

In a sermon last year, McConnell said: “Islam is heathen, Islam is satanic, Islam is a doctrine spawned in hell”.

Last month, the minister had his first court hearing and, speaking beforehand, he said that he would go to jail for the sake of the gospel.

Atheist journalist Suzanne Breen argued that the prosecution is wrong and said:
“Freedom of speech isn’t only for polite persons of mild disposition airing their views within Government-policed parameters”.

That is why I believe this political correctness has gone mad. It is all a ploy to silence Christians.
