Elizabeth Johnston, a.k.a. “Activist Mommy”, the god-fearing, homeschooling mother of 10 who doesn’t believe in same-sex marriage or LGBTQ rights is getting divorced.
In a Facebook post shared Friday, Johnston reveals that her husband, Dr. Patrick Johnston, is a low down dirty dog whose been “repeatedly unfaithful” and “psychologically and emotionally abusive” towards her for over 15 years.
“After repeatedly taking him back, covering for him, preserving his reputation, and forgiving him of adultery, pornography and sexual immorality, which began 16 years ago, I have been forced to come to the harsh realization that I’ve done all I can and am entrusting Him to my Savior!” Johnston says.
And so, she writes, “I, a Christian woman who hates divorce, have decided to separate and pursue a divorce.”
This is not an announcement I ever hoped to make, but life sometimes throws you huge curve balls. My husband and the…

Ironically, Johnston rose to online prominence during the debate over marriage equality in 2015 and has since built her social media platform on spewing Christian hate against LGBTQ people.
In the past, she’s said she doesn’t consider same-sex marriages “real” and refuses to even write the words “gay” and “marriage” without using condescending quotation marks. She also said marriage equality will lead to pedophilia and claimed “no one has permission to change what scripture says.”
Johnston was also a vocal supporter of Kim Davis, the county clerk (currently on her fourth marriage) who refused to sign marriage licenses for same-sex couples after the Supreme Court’s ruling, and she once praised Vladimir Putin for saying marriage is between one man and one woman.
We could go on, but we think you get the picture.
The greatest irony to all this, of course, is that all these years, while Johnston was busy ranting about how same-sex marriage would be the downfall of humanity, her own relationship had been in shambles for over a decade.
“There will be slander circling around this situation,” Johnston writes, “especially in light of my position as a public figure. I will be blasted for not leaving the marriage earlier, and I will be blasted for not staying married.”
She adds, “Don’t listen to the critics, and just pray for us instead. My children and I are in very good hands. What I need now is prayer and encouragement, not criticism. Please respect our privacy at this difficult time.”

(1) Writes Twitter message accusing her husband of all manner of wrongdoing (2) Asks people to respect HER privacy. Typical passive-aggressive BS.

You are entirely correct!
ShiningSex
She’s an idiot. Fake christians are hilarious.
Who cares? Hope her husband gave her an STD

OMG! I”m going crazy looking for the thumbs-up button for this comment!

***With what gender has her husband been unfaithful? (with her as a wife, I’d switch to guys even if I was straight). Can you blame him for straying from that woman?
***Why is she so public about all of this, if she wants “privacy”
Chris
So true. If she really wanted privacy she wouldn’t say a word about this.
MusicBoi74
Because she considers herself a “public figure”? Ug….
rocmond
I would just like her to go on record with which parts of the bible she believes and which parts she doesn’t.
Chris
As with most
Chris
Respect HER privacy?? She hasn’t respected anyone else’s. Now that the shoe is on the other foot she doesn’t like it. Hmmm, can you say “hypocrisy”?
NateOcean
Hypocrisy is the lubricant of social intercourse.

She will burn in hell for getting a divorce!!!!! Lol Karma is a gigantic bitch! 😉
RyanMBecker
Ah, she is the Anita Bryant for our times. If only someone would throw a pie in her face…
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
That was one of the most rewarding scenes I ever saw! The look on that prune faced crunt was beyond priceless 🙂
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Truly disturbing looking Botox laden nasty vile crunt…
Spews hatred and bigotry “defending marriage” while she is in a sham marriage herself
Gay Karma at it’s best!
Glendabulous
Oh poor baby I suppose she wants us to throw her a pity party because her marriage is a shambles…she deserves everything she gets. She is crying that she wants her privacy but she didn’t mind taking away the privacy of others. Hopefully this will shut her up!

Good, may she suffer and, if we’re lucky, get hooked on meth and wither away in a dank alley.

She certainly has every right to support or not support LGBTQ folks. She has the right to protest same sex marriage since she sees these unions as anti-Biblical. HOWEVER, she is proving her lack of true Christianity by degrading and bad mouthing her husband and posting all of his failures as a husband online for the entire world to read. That is far from what Christianity is about and acting this way gives all Christians a bad name.
I can only wonder, if she’s posting items like this online, what is she saying behind closed doors (to her children) about their father?
And I certainly hope that none of her children turn out to be gay because it does not look like she would have any love in her heart for them if they were.
theafricanwiththemouth
Vile, noxious hypocrite!!. You better remain in that marriage until death do you part or burn in hell for eternity, TRASH!
Itsonlythetruth
Another phoney Christian twat.

Oh geez…where did I put…I can’t seem to… Well shoot. And here’s me without my tiny violin.
Chrisk
“psychologically and emotionally abusive”… of coarse it’s always always projection with them. Lol
She’s such a mean vile C*nt it’s actually been etched on her face. Queen of mean and apparently hypocrisy as well. No wonder he left. I only wonder why it took 15 years. Damn.
jayceecook
You know, now that I think about it. Maybe her god was trying to send her a message about marriage. That maybe it’s not the “Christian values” she espouses that creates and holds the bonds of a marriage together but love, honesty, communication, and compassion. Now hers is ending because her god kept calling but she was too busy being a hateful shite head to answer.
gaypalmsprings
This good Christian woman couldn’t keep her legs together. She pops out 10 babies and wonders why things went wrong.
jayceecook
Actually popping out as many kids as you can IS very much a Christian thing. Be fruitful and multiply it declares in the bible. Why do you think so many Christians, especially Catholics, have been anti contraception? When my grandmother was having problems in her marriage and went to her priest for help one of the things he told her was to have children. That it would truly sanctify her marriage in the eyes of god. He would free her from all the ills that she had mentioned to him. The worst are probably the Latter-day Saints. They took that biblical edict to a whole other level.
Dick Gozinia
Apparently, she doesn’t believe in birth control either. Idiots like her need to close their mouths and their legs.
batesmotel
I love that she says no one has the right to change what scripture says, but man DID DO that. They changed the scripture to had a couple words about homosexuality in a thousand page text that applied to the superstition they were living through at that time. And I wouldn’t be surprised if her husband was messing around with men too. When people cheat to the degree he was, it’s because they’re unhappy with being with you!!! Take the hint lady. You make people miserable.

Who could blame him?

What I wonder is, why the hell isn’t Kellyanne Conway divorced?
Kieran
As a Christian, I won’t judge you about your divorce Elizabeth. I’ll leave the judging to God. But I hope in the future you will also show this kind of Christian charity towards other people.
Cam
Except you happily judge Democrats on this site all the time. Your hypocrisy is right on brand.
Cam
Jesus DIRECTLY spoke out against divorce and never said a word about homosexuality.
But today’s evangelicals don’t care about actually following their religion. The only rule for being an evangelical now seems to be bigotry. If you hate LGBT people, you’re in.
She’s happy to go against Christ words when it suits her, but attacks others over something he never spoke about. Just another evangelical bigot who lives for hate.
GayEGO
Scriptures were written by people who believed the Earth was flat so they need to be changed to modern day, updatible religious books. The old and new testaments are outdated.
Elizabeth and Kellyanne are a good match, idiots!
stanhope
Clit lickers the both of them.

Perhaps if she had had vaginal rejuvenation she might have gotten more mileage out of that husband. Now we know the reason for all of that vitriol, her cat was frustrated
. LMAO. Meow bitch.
dricktx
Jesus Christ, TLDR! This one isn’t very intelligent with editing and thinking people are interested in reading 20 minutes of self important garbage.
The bitch has TEN kids; a litter. Like an animal, unbelievable. I cannot imagine her daily life with this, let alone the divorce logistics and potential hardship.
dricktx
But of course the straights and marriage; they have it all figured out.
