About

front view of the church, from its official web site

Stedfast Baptist Church (SBC) is the church of wingnut pastor Donnie Romero. He landed SBC on the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of hate groups in 2014[1] when Right Wing Watch posted a video clip of one of his sermons on YouTube.[2]

Two years later, Romero became more generally infamous for celebrating the Pulse Massacre, about which he said the following[3]:

These 50 sodomites are all perverts and pedophiles, and they are the scum of the earth, and the earth is a little bit better place now [...] And I'll take it a step further, because I heard on the news today, that there are still several dozen of these queers in ICU and intensive care. And I will pray to God like I did this morning, I will do it tonight, I’ll pray that God will finish the job that that man started, and he will end their life, and by tomorrow morning they will all be burning in hell, just like the rest of them, so that they don’t get any more opportunity to go out and hurt little children.

This is not the first time that Pastor Romero has made rabid anti-gay statements.
