Pastor: Kermit deserves 'death penalty' for taking 'sodomy route'

A Christian pastor recently recalled a time when "a Christian perspective ultimately brought the death penalty upon homosexuality" and suggested that Muppet characters Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy deserved the same for breaking with Chick-fil-A over the company's opposition to LGBT rights.

During his Friday radio broadcast, Kevin Swanson said he wanted to see "Miss Piggy on a bun" because The Muppets had dumped Chick-fil-A after restaurant founder Dan Cathy insisted the company was "guilty as charged" of funding anti-LGBT organizations.

"A Christian perspective ultimately brought the death penalty upon homosexuality between roughly 350 AD and roughly 1850 or so, for about 1,500 years that form of life had pretty much been eliminated except here and there, it was in the closet, but it was almost unheard of for over 1,000 years, until recently," Swanson explained. "Of course, now you have a massive, massive increase in this kind of thing."

"It’s pretty obvious to anyone who’s on looking that tolerance only runs one direction, you only can tolerate gays, you can’t tolerate those who don’t support gays," co-host Dave Buehner observed.

"And Kermit the Frog is not eating Chick-fil-A either," Swanson continued. "Maybe Dan Cathy should consider doing a frog filet for one of the sandwiches."

"Dave, you know that Sesame Street and the Muppets are going to take the sodomy route," he said, adding that the puppets may also support the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), a pedophilia advocacy group.

"I don’t think the frog filet will sell, just a little marketing advice, I think Miss Piggy on a bun, that’s a better bet, the winner," Buehner suggested.

"Miss Piggy on a bun, that sounds good, a fried pig on a bun," Swanson agreed.
