Ted Cruz’s Twitter page is giving us whiplash with his dueling pro-LGBTQ+ & anti-LGBTQ+ platitudes
Ted Cruz can’t seem to decide whether he supports LGBTQ+ people or thinks they’re all a bunch of “sadistic Marxists” who want to do irreparable harm to children.
OK, let’s unpack this…It all started on Monday when the proudly “unwoke” Texas Senator got into a Twitter spat with Florida pastor/noted homophobe Tom Ascol over Uganda’s new law that imposes the death penalty on people for being gay.Ascol reshared a tweet Cruz had posted days earlier calling the law “horrific” and “wrong” then quoted Leviticus and asked, “Was this law God gave to His old covenant people ‘horrific and wrong’?”Tell it to God, Ted. "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them."—Leviticus 20:13Was this law God gave to His old covenant people "horrific and wrong"?
https://t.co/FZi2JolvQKCruz responded to by telling Ascol his “biblical analysis is in error.”“We are talking the laws of man, not the Old Testament laws of God,” Cruz tweeted. “Do you really believe that the US govt should execute every person who is gay??”1/x Pastor, I don’t know you, but I honor your ministry.Your biblical analysis is in error.
