| 0:00.0 | We have moved into the space where sexual and romantic fulfillment has become the thing that we worship. |
| 0:08.0 | The misinformation that I was placing all on God is actually true about his enemy, not about him. |
| 0:17.0 | We know that Jesus isn't the kind of person who holds up a sign that says God hates faggots. |
