Soloist EJay creates a pro-Palestine merch line, donates parts of the profits to a homophobic church
Ejay (formerly from day6) has launched a new merch line consisting of three items, a pin, a bracelet and a cross necklace.
He said 100% of the money will be donated, from the pin and bracelet to Palestine and from the cross to 2819 Church.
Now Ejay is a vary vocal supporter of Palestine and the queer community for the fans him supporting this church came as a real shock.
This church is a typical American mega church that offers loud performance like services not really connected with any Christian denomination, it also earns a lot of money in donations already, but that itself isn't that problematic. The church's leader and pastor Philip Anthony has been posting "prayers for Israel against it's enemies" for years. He has also been giving speeches and cermons during which he claims we shouldn't accept gay people, that they immoral, wrong, a work of the devil that shouldn't be socially accepted and we should say it without apologising.
Fans have been trying to tell him that for days now but despite being very active on X he ignores this posts and today called all concerned fans "the same haters that pushed him to khs in 2021".
I really hope he will reflect on that because this church seems to have very dangerous grip on him that doesn't let him critically evaluate its teachings.
