It seems that for every Kim Burrell critic calling for her to be blacklisted there is a supporter armed and ready to defend her.
Arguably the most-hated woman in America following the unearthing of a Biblical-based assault launched at openly gay men and women, Burrell learned that her remarks had cost her an appearance on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show.’
Ellen’s move was lauded by those who argued Burrell’s remarks were hateful, hurtful and divisive.
However, rising from the shadows are those who believe that Burrell is being unfairly punished.
Why?
Freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech is the right to articulate one’s opinions and ideas without fear of government retaliation or censorship, or societal sanction.The term freedom of expression is sometimes used synonymously, but includes any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used.
With this definition in mind, the petition ‘Respect Freedom of Speech and Religion of Rev. Kim Burrell’ was created.
Dear Beloved Rev. Kim Burrell:
We love you sister. We support you, and going to Heaven is more important than being on anyone’s television show or network. We know you love everyone and spoke out of compassion not hatred. We know that there are dreadful consequences to ALL sins. God Bless you and remember the Lord is your Shepherd.
Matthew 5:11-13King James Version (KJV)
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Stand fast on the word of God. Thanks for speaking truth to a dying a world.
True Believers in Jesus Christ!
This petition will be delivered to:
- GREAT WOMAN OF GOD AND ANOINTED PSALMIST
Kim Burrell
A number of messages published on Twitter hours after her remarks hit the net fall in line with the petition’s message.
Yet to see what Kim said?
I came to tell you about sin. That sin nature. That perverted homosexual spirit, and the spirit of delusion and confusion, it has deceived many men and women, and it’s caused us pain on the body of Christ. You as a man, you open your mouth and take a man’s penis in your face, you are perverted. You are a woman and will shake your face in another woman’s breast, you are perverted.
