I went over to the site and saw that is said "a local hate group...."

Curious....it's "hate" when a group disagrees with the left. Amusing if I do say so myself.

It's a hate group when they spend all their time telling everyone else that they are damned.

You bring me some evidence that Rescue Pittsburgh is doing anything constructive at all beyond tapping into fear, hate and extremism ....a hate group posts pictures of a man on their website in a clumsy attempt to create individualized private targets for their vitriole.

Funny, "tolerance" only exists when it is the left's way.....

You bring me some hardcore evidence that indicates it is a hate group. In fact, how about presenting the word(s) "hate" in any documentation via the aforementioned website.

A picture is posted and you classify that as hate? You amuse me.

What is Joe Parente's issue: abortion, homosexuality, or is he the final coming of our lord and savior?
I'm confused. If he wants to stop abortion then he should be teaching and preaching about birth control. And he should love gay people! Homosexuals do not have create embryonic life unless they want to have a baby!!
It's the heterosexual population that needs to pre-plan and prepare themselves to either become parents or use a form of BIRTH CONTROL.
Since my pal Joe doesn't want to solve problems and enter into a dialogue with the rest of humanity I think it's safe to say that his rantings and cut/paste use of bible phrases do in fact classify him as a hate monger.
I will continue to attempt to engage Mr. Parente in debate. Apparently he is a young man who might some day want to change his ways and have a real life. You know - one that involves dating someone other than his mother.
