The conversation Kirk had with that YouTuber was when she quoted a bible verse to support Pride celebrations. Kirk responded with “Ms. Rachel, you might wanna crack open that Bible of yours, in a lesser referenced part of the same part of scripture is in Leviticus 18 is that thou shall lay with another man, shall be stoned to death.".

In this instance, it's obvious that he's not saying it's his opinion that a gay person should be stoned to death - he's saying she shouldn't have quoted bible scripture to support her position when that same scripture directly opposes her position.



Are there any other instances where Kirk has allegedly advocated for killing gay people?
On October 14, 2021, Kirk stated that "the facts that there are only two genders; that transgenderism and gender 'fluidity' are lies that hurt people and abuse kids."[127] In early 2023, Kirk said that transgender women in women's locker rooms should be "taken care of the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s and 60s."

I mean, technically not gay people, but I don't think he was talking about all the tolerant ways people were treated in the 50s & 60s.
So it's not like he's preaching non-violence.

The fact is, the guy has used biblical references for a lot of what he says. So when he quotes the parts about killing gay people, it's not a stretch for people listening to him to think he's advocating for it.

He's used similar passages to claim why Trans people are an "Abomination to god", so why should we give him the benefit of the doubt when he refers to a passage about killing gay people as "God's Perfect Law".
Was he being sarcastic and saying god's law isn't perfect?
