"Sodomite semen" pastor about to lose his church

Pastor James David Manning (pictured) is a nasty piece of work.

He has posted signs outside his Harlem based church like “Jesus would stone homos” and that gay allies deserve cancer. He has also made videos claiming that Starbucks flavors its coffee with jizz from homosexuals.

Well, karma is a bitch. The ATLAH World Missionary Church is now going to be sold at a public foreclosure auction next month because of unpaid debts totaling $1.02 million. Much of the debt is from unpaid water and sewer bills (bills which he claims he is not obligated to pay because his church is exempt).

There are also nine federal tax liens against the church, totaling over $355,000.

So creditors took ATLAH to court, and the church was given until last April to pay its debts. It didn't.

Could things get better? You bet! The LGBTI youth homeless charity the Ali Forney Center has announced that it was raising funds to buy the property.

"When the ATLAH story broke, immediately I heard from neighbors: wouldn’t it be amazing if an LGBT group could acquire the property?" said Stacy Parker Le Melle, a Harlem resident. "What if it were the Ali Forney Center? We all knew that this would be poetic justice.

"We need to care for those kicked out of homes, often on religious-based grounds. We need to care for those most vulnerable to ATLAH’s hate speech."

“To allow our young people to be cared for and protected in a place where they’ve been exposed to such cruelty and hatred, it would be symbolically a great triumph,” Carl Siciliano, executive director of The Ali Forney Center, added.

“We certainly anticipate that we could provide a long-term housing program there for as many as 20 young people."

If you want to help, you can support the youth charity buy the property here.
