On Monday’s taping of The View, the ladies discussed Bishop Thomas Tobin’s recent tweet reminding all Catholics to hold firm to their homophobic beliefs during Pride month.
“A reminder that Catholics should not support or attend LGBTQ ‘Pride Month’ events held in June,” Tobin tweeted on Saturday. “They promote a culture and encourage activities that are contrary to Catholic faith and morals. They are especially harmful for children.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin, who is a practicing Catholic, wasn’t having any of Tobin’s homophobic nonsense.
“I tweeted out that my Catholic children will be attending Pride events as this Catholic will,” she told her colleagues on Monday’s show. “And you know, my faith always taught me, ‘What would Jesus do?’ And I know Jesus would be attending that Pride parade, with pride.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
But she didn’t stop there.
“And I also know that God is love, Jesus is love, love is love,” she continued. “For a Catholic bishop to come out and say something like that given the history of pedophilia in the Catholic church, given what the Catholic church has hidden about the abuse of children, some would say that being at a Pride parade would be much safer for a child than it has been to be in a Catholic church for many years.”
Mic drop.
Cue the Twitter meltdown in 3… 2… 1…
Blasphemy! Sunny Hostin has an ever lower IQ than AOC. In-fact, she makes Shelia Jackson and Maxine Waters look like they deserve the Nobel for Dumb Chitz. I don’t think that dolt even has AIR left in her head. She puts the Jack, in JackA**.https://t.co/1jWt8BmXFv

Sunny Hostin apparently doesn’t read the Bible or truly know Jesus.https://t.co/YQ0L0Mhj6c

@Sunny Hostin: WRONG! You obviously do not know a DAMNED THING about what the Bible says, especially what is stated in Genesis Chapter 19 and Romans Chapter 1 … You can take your foot out of your a** now. https://t.co/f1Nuf4Cw8i

Sunny Hostin from “The View” says Jesus would attend a gay pride parade.
And I think she’s right.
But he wouldn’t be there out of support, he would be there to preach repentance to the sinners.

WTF does Sunny Hostin know what Jesus would do? She is another dumbazz with a law degree who is just paid to follow DNC commands like a trained poodle.

@kramerreport @Charliekirk11 @sunny @TheView “Sunny Hostin On ‘The View’: Jesus Would Be Attending A Gay Pride Parade”. The real question is would gays be attending if Jesus did? Would they expose themselves or be ashamed? Jesus hasn’t forgotten gays, THEY have forgotten Him.

I don’t like to criticize, but I cannot let Mrs. Sunny Hostin get by saying Jesus would approvingly attend a Gay Pride events. You would think that a person would read the Bible a few times so they know for sure what Jesus and his Disciples wrote about homosexuality…

Sunny hostin may attend catholuc church. Doesnt mean shes Christian. Jesus said (Luke 6.46) “why call ye me LORD and do not the things I say”? I doubt shes read much if GODs word. Going to church, doing good deeds doesnt make you Christian. Coming to Christ turning to him does

@TheView Sunny Hostin’s mind is poisoned by the virus of liberalism that is anti-family, anti-decency, anti-principles, anti-everything that is normal. To suggest that kids are safer in a LGBT event than in a church is the final insult from this low-class show. Go to hell all!

Here is EVERYTHING Jesus Christ said about the Gays: ” “

With the exception of Mary Magdeline Jesus only hung around with men. That SHOULD tell tyhe evangelicals something.

When speaking on Gays
Jesus:
Evangelical Christians: Abhorrent; Burn in Hell; #*%?
ShowMeGuy
Since most Christians have never even read The Bible, they don’t get to lecture me…. a preacher’s gay son who HAS read The Bible…… and pretend they know what Jesus or G0d would say or do. I ain’t having it.
thomphelps
Thank you, I agree with you. Christians have no idea what Jesus said about any subject. I am a former-Catholic who was told I was not welcome because I’m gay.
OhNoYouDont
So many terrified Christians…..poor dears
hayesj
Good for you, Sunny Hostin. What a beautiful statement. .To all those who are outraged-go pray for yourselves to not be so hateful.
radiooutmike
Jesus said zilch about homosexuality. If you have to quote the Old Testament, or Paul’s rambling letters to all the young churches from the New, you don’t know your bible.
Why not point out drunkenness, sluggards, thieves and idolators like Paul did as well. Or hey, even some Jesus mentioned like the RICH not having a chance to get into heaven.
boymikefl
The only reason people evoke Jesus’ name is to justify their own hatred. It’s you b*tch, that hate. Have the balls or sn*tch to say it. Leave Jesus out of it. This certain religion, well a lot of them are used to hate and make devil preachers, rich. God is love, period. Anything else is “fake scripture.”
Jimmyk321
Sunny and Joy are the best people on The View. I saw this live and was slack-jawed that she actually said it. Good on her.

I would never let a child be alone with a priest.

For people who profess to be Christian their comments certainly betray them.
screwtop
Sad, isn’t it? So many sick minds, believing they are the only ones that know s**t about what God thinks or says!
I wonder what the cops would say, if they tested these people’s bag of tobacco, or checked what they put in the tea pot!
Seriously! When was the last time God spoke to any one of them? And did they realise at once that they needed to see a psychiatrist?
Oh – and BTW – the official stand of the Catholic church is NOT that you can’t BE gay. It’s that if you are, you mustn’t DO anything gay – like kissing other people of the same sex (like we french guys do, when we meet someone) or having it off with people of the same sex. It’s only OK if it’s the priest doing it to one of the choir boys, behind the church organ.

I’ll say it as often as needed, but at no point in the four New Testament Gospels, which detail the life and teaching of Jesus Christ of Nazareth does He ever mention or condemn homosexuality. Not once. Not. Once. And He surely would have known the Old Testament teachings, just as those who followed Him would have. He condemns many things: turning the Temple into a bank; mistreating the poor, strangers, prisoners; abandoning the sick, etc. But he does NOT mention same sexual desire, actions and love. Not. Once. He DOES mention loving one’s enemies, neighbors, those who are “the least of” His brothers. Strangely and sadly, most of these so-called “Christians” seem to miss all of that.
TomG
That’s because most of them are “Christian” in name only and NOT practice.
IWantAFullBeard
That’s because the supposed condemnation comes from the Old Testament – that thing that Christians coopted from Jews but in reality their Hebrew was so bad they couldn’t translate it properly.
Cam
Let’s be honest, the right wing Christians are not actually interested in anything the Bible says. They are bigots who want to attack others, and are cheery picking through the Bible and pretending to be religious as a convenient excuse for their behavior.
Proof? Easy, Kim Davis was held up as a hero when she was attacking Same Sex Marriage……even though she had broken commandments AND went against Jesus’s own words. Davis committed adultery multiple times (Against the 10 Commandments) and she was divorced multiple times (Jesus spoke against divorce) and the right wing DID NOT CARE, because she was attacking LGBTQ people.
So they don’t care anything about religion, they just care about harming others.
jcoberkrom
Ah the bible and tome of hate and intolerance. Well except for the life and the teaching of the Nazarene.
Sadly “christians” like to focus on how petty they, themselves, are.
rbernard
The fact is Jesus never said a single negative thing about homosexuality and the scriptures say, he hung out with a prostitute and a dozen men he said he loved, who left their wives, to run around the countryside and preach the message of love thy neighbor.
It is the Catholic priests who deflected our attention from their own misdeeds by smearing gay people, while inexplicably, thousands of priests have been caught red handed molesting tens of thousands of boys and paying billions of dollars in restitution to the victims.
Bishop Thomas Tobin is the worst kind of a hypocrite, has less than no moral authority, and should shut up and clean his own filthy house for a thousand years of atonement before criticizing good law abiding people simply for whom they love.
James
CHRIXTIAN TRASH. NOBODY WANTS TO JOIN THEIR UGLY HATE FILLED CHURCH OR WORSHIP THEIR UGLY HATE FILLED GOD. JESUS NEVER KNEW THEM.

Bless those little Christian hearts. Which is southern speak that means they can go F themselves.
