Here in Wichita, Mark Holick, Pastor of Sprit One, a center for right-wing Christian hate mongers, won a case against trespassing for trying to interfere with a gay-rights march.
According to the Wichita Eagle:
“Oct. 13, 2007
Pastor free of charges in pride parade arrest
BY JOE RODRIGUEZ
The Wichita Eagle
The city of Wichita dismissed a criminal trespassing charge Friday against a Wichita pastor for his actions in a gay pride parade in June.
"We're glad that justice prevailed," pastor Mark Holick of Spirit One Christian Center said shortly after the decision in Wichita Municipal Court. "We thought it was pretty obvious from the beginning."
A call to the city was referred to City Attorney Gary Rebenstorf. He did not return the call Friday afternoon.
Holick said that he and 30 church members went to the Pride Parade and Festival in downtown Wichita to pass out fliers and "preach the gospel" related to their belief that homosexuality is a sin.
Wichita police had told the group to move across the street, away from the parade, Holick said.
Holick said the church members did, but said he stayed to question why they had to leave a public sidewalk.”
The parade was in June. Spirit One Church is also under investigation by the IRS for using their tax free money for political purposes.
As we have seen before with Sen. Larry Craig, of Idaho, most homophobes, who hide behind Bible passages, are closet homosexuals themselves. How long will it be before we catch Pastor Holick in a homosexual act.
