NZ pastor who says gay people should be shot moves to Australia
A New Zealand pastor who said gay people should be executed has moved to Australia to found a new church.
Logan Robertson, who also said New Zealand鈥檚 new Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern belongs in the kitchen, arrived in Australia on Monday, has reported.
A controversial figure, Robertson appeared in a video earlier this year calling for the death penalty for gay people.
鈥淢y view on homo marriage is that the Bible never mentions it, so I鈥檓 not against them getting married,鈥� he said in a sermon.
鈥淎s long as a bullet goes through their head the moment they kiss鈥� Because that鈥檚 what it talks about鈥攏ot homo marriage but homo death.鈥�
Robertson said of his country鈥檚 new Prime Minister that it was a 鈥渃urse for a nation to have a woman ruling over them鈥�.
In other sermons, Robertson has railed against women voting, and cautioned parishioners against 鈥渃atching AIDS鈥� from 鈥渜ueers鈥� and 鈥渟luts鈥�.
Arriving in Australia on Monday, he was detained at the airport for nine hours.
New Zealand authorities said they took Robertson鈥檚 violent homophobic remarks 鈥渧ery seriously鈥�, but found no evidence of a crime after investigation.
鈥淲e have considered the appropriate legislation and sought a legal opinion on the matter and we are not in a position to pursue the matter any further, as no criminal offence has been committed,鈥� said a spokesperson in August.
Robertson announced on Facebook that he has moved to Brisbane and started a new 鈥渟atellite鈥� church.
Westcity Bible Baptist Church in Auckland, founded by Robertson, reportedly has about 40 members.

The sad thing is – Turnbull doesn’t want to take Ardern up on her offer to take 150 as they might (in time) be eligible to live in AU and get aussie citizenship.
All the while, they accept people like this arse hat, and reject legitimate partners of those with hiv – along with all those suffering folk in detention camps.
Australia is not immune to nutjobs – where is the balance??
It would seem the extremist christians have killed or destroyed far more of our population than any muslim extremist group could hope to.
Makes me sick. The sad thing is the electorate up here in QLD is about to put Pauline’s party in enough power to pull the strings.
This raises the question of ‘Religious Freedoms’ being preserved (or even extended) if law amended to allow S.S. marriage.
Beyond particular religions or churches, parishes, etc refusing to marry gay people, would ‘religious freedoms’ extend to protections for these type of people?
And even if it would not, and certain churches are granted the right to refuse to marry same sex people, then what is the difference between that, and a civil celebrant refusing to marry gay people because they hate us? What is the difference?
Therefore, NO religious ‘freedoms’ or concessions must be allowed, if S.S. marriage passes!
How can this person possibly be allowed to live to in Australia.
To me this seems like a blatant act of inciting violence and even murder against the gay community all in the name of religion.
Surely he cannot be allowed to remain here, we have enough hatred mongers here already.
How is it possible for a person who preaches such Hatred can be allowed into Australia?
It is, of course understandable that this creep should slip through the net.
Our politicians – with both the ALP and Coalition giving each other 100% SUPPORT refuse to allow Innocent Men, Women and Children to enter Australia – despite there being No Binding International Legal Agreement as to how would-be Refugees should make their way to any country – so for people to arrive by boat is not, nor ever has been, Illegal.
This pathetic excuse for a “Human Being” should be deported immediately. His Hate Speech is a Criminal Act and he should be charged. As it is Proven he has made those hate-filled criminal remarks he will, or should if there is any real Justice in Australia but given the kid-glove treatment with which our male and female judges treat paedophiles it is unlikely – he will immediately be deported back to NZ.
Pretty obvious that a lowlife like him would not have a normal job so finance would have to come from somewhere.
He seems like a perfect candidate for Australian christian alliance
Actually, this guy can be excluded from Australia, and the character test is applicable for all border arrivals and visa holders.
Just because he has a special reciprocal visa as a NZer does not mean he doesn’t have the obligations of the character test.
Dept of Immigration can review and/or cancel a visa at any time.
Here is the form to use:
Report his prior and current beliefs as conduct unbecoming a visa holder, and seek cancellation of the visa. This man clearly fails character tests based on past and current conduct, and is known to stir up disharmony against sections of the community and/or vilify sections of the community
OMG. What a vile creature. A man of God, more like a man of the devil.
OMG. What a vile creature. A man of God, more like a man of the devil.
Great, just what we need, another hate filled homophobic sexist bigot, because we certainly don’t have enough of them in this country already. Just as well he didn’t get to vote in the postal survey, because I’m pretty sure I know which way this prick would have voted!
Sick guy who is either closeted or unable to feel okay in his own skin.
People Who Make these nasty Comments about Gay People should be sent to prison for a very long time. until they learn not to speak out against Gay people !!!!!!
He should be deported. What has happened to our protective government?
and the worst thing is that he escapes anti discrimination laws on basis of “religion”
Dutton failed in his duty to prevent this man from entering Australia. Some time ago he prevented entry of a guest speaker imported by Right to Life Org. at the airport. This chap however seems to have some parity with Dutton’s own views.
What a christian loser with an IQ of minus 666.
He clearly demonstrates that he fails the character test required for anyone entering Australia, so why has he not been kicked out?
Because Alex I fear our government probably shares some of his views, as evidenced by this hateful postal ‘survey’ it unleashed upon us.
Dear oh dear. How many assholes like him have we came up against? How many assholes like him have died in the arse?
But – on a world stage – who are the ones inflicting their right wing nonsense on others? Dudes like this – dudes like the vegas shooter.
The real terrorists are western grown – this motherfucker needs to be put in his box.
Terrorism is local!
How can our government allow this man into our country when they have blocked others from coming here who preach hate speech. There is a law in place to stop people like him but ti seems it’s only used when it suits them.
Yes, I’m pretty sure we don’t welcome revisionist Holocaust deniers, so why this guy?
Two words Paul. New Zealand. Our countries enjoy a relationship which allows visa-free travel between the countries and a simplified process for residency.
That said we can deport him if he actually breaks a law here.
I’m not against this man coming to our country, as long as a bullet is put in his brain while he is here. Seems fair….
Disgusting animal he is.
Send him back to where he came from. I’m not talking about New Zealand, I’m talking about Jerusalem in about 50 BC going on the basis of his attitudes.
