WARNING: You may have heard him talking with his Heterosexual Life Partner Kirk Cameron about the banana and the Crocoduck. This argument is far stupider and much less logical than those arguments.
1. Jesus said that thinking about adultery is morally the same as actually committing it. (Mt. 5:28)
2. If one believes a law is unjust, he is punished for breaking it all the same.
3. Therefore, God exists.
I'm sure I'm missing some step that makes this make some sort of sense, but it seems that Comfort sees fit to not tell other people what it is. Even the Crocoduck arguments make some logical sense if you have no knowledge whatsoever about how the principle of Common Descent even works, but this one... it boggles the mind.
Huh??
