So him saying gays should burn in hell is ok. But people reacting negatively to that view is ridiculous? 

He is “100% free to portray his belief” but when people react and portray their belief that he’s wrong, they’re being ridiculous? 

My understanding is he didn't say they should burn in hell he said that according to the bible that is where gay people are going to go when they die. I don't follow his social media account so please correct me if I am wrong.

Saying someone "should burn in hell" is quite different to saying someone is going to "end up in hell according to what the bible preaches". 

One is a direct person to person comment the other is someone outlining what they think will happen according to what they believe to be true. ie one is an active and one is a passive comment. Again big difference.

I believe what he said was a passive reference to what he thinks will happen according to how he interprets the bible and I don't have a problem with that.

Why? Because I don't believe in any christian god for starters and concepts like heaven and hell mean nothing to me, If israel thinks someone is being sent to a place which I don't even believe exists then big deal.

And even if he did say gays should burn in hell, big deal, let him have his opinion. Or are people so thin skinned these days that they cannot tolerate any opinion that falls outside of their "safe space"?  If you are hurt by other peoples opinions on social media then I really think you need to get a grip.

Move on, nothing to see here!
