Christian Hate Preacher Will Be Deported from Australia After Harassing Muslims
Pastor Logan Robertson is an independent Baptist preacher from Auckland, New Zealand. He began the Westcity Bible Baptist Church in 2014 but moved to Australia last year to start up the Pillar Baptist Church.
He has a history of saying simply awful things. Like when he told a gay Christian, “I pray that you will commit suicide.” And when he told a reporter working on that story to do the same.
{snip}
Yet he’s always been able to travel out of New Zealand to spread his brand of faith-based hate. That is, until this week, when Robertson and his buddies were arrested for harassing a group of peaceful Muslims at their mosque.
On Wednesday a group of up to six men including Mr Robertson were accused of entering the Kuraby mosque and harassing worshippers, including teenage boys, in the lead-up to 1:00pm prayers. A teenage boy was allegedly verbally abused and called a terrorist.
