    Gay pastor admits lying about gay slur on cake

    -The case of the chocolate cake slur, it seems, was simply a hoax.

    An openly gay Texas pastor who had accused Whole Foods of defacing his cake with an anti-gay slur dropped his lawsuit against the grocery chain on Monday, issuing an apology that said he was wrong to “perpetuate this story.”

    “The company did nothing wrong,” the pastor, Jordan Brown, said in a statement. “I was wrong to pursue this matter and use the media to perpetuate this story.”

    He also apologized to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community “for diverting attention from real issues.”

    Whole Foods had forcefully rejected the accusations by Mr. Brown, 31, who claimed that he had bought a frosted cake from a store in Austin, Tex., and asked that the words “Love Wins” be written in icing on top — only to discover while driving away that a slur had been added.

    Mr. Brown’s apology represented a remarkable about-face from his remarks last month, delivered at a news conference alongside his lawyer, during which he choked back tears as he told the story.

    “For me, it was humiliating,” he said then, “because being a pastor who is also openly gay, I’ve had to deal with this in the past and literally the feeling that I had just resurfaced a bunch of painful memories of things that have happened to me.”

    But a day after Mr. Brown’s legal salvo, Whole Foods denounced the pastor as a fraud, vowing to press a countersuit that sought $100,000. At the same time, the grocery chain released surveillance footage of Mr. Brown’s purchase that it said proved that the cake had not been tampered with...

    I explained to our congregation last Sunday about the difference between love and sin. The basic meaning of sin is a self-focus with a lack of concern about how your action may affect others. IT is all about meeting MY needs and MY desires. I pointed out that this is the primary problem with the gay rights movement. It is all about their desires with no concern about who they hurt.

    This so called pastor wanted a cake that said "love wins" while his actions were the very opposite of love. They were to gratify his need for attention and sympathy.

    And if not for that, he probably never would have come clean.
