Watch: Disgraced Minister Calls Lesbian Kiss on ABC Show 'A Fever Dream From Hell'
READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Reverend Jim Bakker, the man whose affair with a church secretary led to the demise of his PTL ministry, subsequent divorce and five year incarceration, is getting judgey about a lesbian kiss between fictional characters on a TV show.
Speaking with doomsday theorist on an episode of his "Jim Bakker Show" program last week, the disgraced televangelist ranted about a recent show seen on the ABC series "Once Upon A Time" that featured a lesbian kiss.
"They had Little Red Riding Hood and Dorothy, this is on the air, making out, on television, making out, not just kissing. Red Riding Hood and Dorothy. Would you ever imagine? That's like a fever dream from hell," he said.
Right Wing Watch notes later in the same episode, Bakker said that when he was running for president in 1979, Ronald Reagan predicted America could soon "become as wicked as Sodom and Gomorrah."
Bakker is a little late to the party about the lesbian kiss scene on "Once Upon A Time." In late April, it was reported �ber anti-gay minister Kevin Swanson was so incensed by the fictional characters' kiss that he urged parents to remove their kids from public schools, lest they be indoctrinated by gays, whom he likened to cannibals.
Swanson's rant came a week after it was reported One Million Moms (1MM) freaked out over the kiss. They naturally launched a boycott.
"Homosexuality continues to be over-represented in the media because producers want people, and especially kids, to think it's normal and everyday life. In reality, that is their fairytale," 1MM wrote.
