What Would Jesus Do?
Filed under: TV News > Gay Gay Gay
Azariah Southworth, host of the popular Christian youth show The Remix has done something radical (at least in the Christian world).
The host of over a year and a half has come OUT of the closet! As a homo! A gay!
Congrats on coming out!!!!!
Amen, we say. aMEN.
Southworth says, “This has been a long time coming. I’m in a place where I’m at peace with my faith, friends, family and more importantly myself. I know this will end my career in Christian television, but I must now live my life openly and honestly with everyone. This is my reason for doing this.”
The Remix is seen in more than 128 million homes worldwide. The show is in syndication and averages more than 200,000 viewers weekly.
Southworth has risen to fame in the Christian world and has been featured in different national publications, such as Charisma Magazine and many other religious media outlets.
Southworth adds, “I know I will be cut off from many within the Christian community, and if so, then they didn’t get the point of the life of Christ. I believe by me living my life honestly and authentically now, I am able to be a better person and a better Christian. We all know there are so many other gay people in the Christian industry; they’re just all scared. I was scared, but now I’m no longer afraid."
He probably just ruined his career in the Christian biz, but better free and happy than closed and oppressed.
first !
good for him !!
GOOD FOR HIM…ALL KRISTIAN QUEENS SHOULD COME OUT CAUSE BELIEVE ME THERE ARE MILLIONS OF THEM.
he has a huge head.
that's so good for him, it takes a lot of courage to do something like that inside of the christian world.
Congratulations, brother. You're cute. Let's do it!
Good for him! And he's right, if the Christian community turns their back on him, they don't get it in the first place!
Good for him!
Christians eat their own. Look out, kid.
Was his head photoshopped on the body? It looks very weird and his head looks too big
screw this guy……seriously…..yet another reason why i abhor organized religion and the quacks, fakes and wanna-bes that shove it in our faces…..
GOOD FOR HIM.
good for him!!
i have plenty of gay friends, and i love them to death!
i'm glad people have the courage to come out in today's society..
first?
WTF HE HOSTED A CHRISTIAN SHOW FOR A YEAR AND WAS GAY, GREAT FOR COMING OUT AND ALL BUT THAT WAS REALLY BAD BECAUSE IF YOU LIED THAT BIG THEN WHAT TRUST WILL PEOPLE EVER HAVE IN YOU??
he forgot to say "I love cock!"
That's great!
Re: Allison – Believe me, allison, They Don't Get It. And I see them all at the adult bookstore and the rest area on my way home. The loudest homophobes are the ones who REALLY want to give it try.
Good for U. Rock on dude - whoever you are….
He's Going to HELL! Oh WAIT a Minute..I think that's a GOOD THING!! LOL
Good for him!
I hoenstly don't get why people tihnk homosexuality is wrong, and against the bible and stuff.
If it was, don't you think that God wouldn't have made people be born that way?
More power to him!!!
Good for him! He's going to have to give up his entire career because of who he is and that takes guts. (and demonstrates the sad result of bigotry from a religion that professes to be all about love)
He should be very proud of himself.
Re: WOW – I agree, but this is one area where people are often forced to live a lie, all of the time. It is very hard to stand up and say you are gay when you feel like you are alone. If you are part of the straight world, you are NEVER alone in anything.
amazing
good for him!
not all Christians are judgmental homophobes! I love Jesus AND gay people. Rock on!
Congrats on coming out =]
2nd
big gay first
Good for him for coming out! except it's going to suck when they fire him over something like this…Damn those religious people. There's nothing wrong about being a homosexual…Adam and Eve are just fictitious characters don't ya know!!
woahh
yay…! he's out the closet!
ITS PRETTY SAD TO SEE THAT TEMTATIONS OF THE DEVIL HAVE CLAIMED ANOTHER VICTIM,I HAVE A STRAIGHT FRIEND WHO TOLD ME THAT HE TO HAD HOMOSEXUAL URGES AND TENDANCIES BUT HE FOUGHT THOSE ATTEMPTS BY THE DEVIL AND PRAYED FOR THE STRENGTH FROM GOD AND SUCCEDED IN TURNING HIS LIFE AROUND AND HE NOW HAS A BEAUTIFUL CHILD,BEING GAY IS A CHOICE IT IS NOT MENTALLY INSTILED IN US IT IS A CHOICE, MANY GAYS JUSTT LIKE TO TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT AND SAY THEY WERE BORN THAT WAY!
I am a very storng (hetrosexual) Christian, very active in my church, etc. And I think he is correct in saying :“I know I will be cut off from many within the Christian community, and if so, then they didn’t get the point of the life of Christ. " No where in the bible does it say to treat homosexuals the way that some people do and then try to justify it in the name of the Lord and their religion. I wish him the best and command him for his courage.
cool!!!
Once again, Chrisitianity shows its tolerance and love. Drives me nuts! Way to go buddy and I hope you're happier with your true self.
Congrats, he is out of the most boring of the worlds: christian americans!
GOD LOVES GAYS GOD LOVES GAYS GOD LOVES GAYS GOD LOVES GAY GOD LOVE EVERYONE! AMEN
congrats! sending the right message to christians and non-christians alike. Be proud of who you are and you will be able to love others better for it.
but why is his head so big?? photoshop malady?
Discrimination is one of the worse things today in our world. We think that it does not affect anyone, but so many people are hurt, and even killed everyday because of this.
Kudos to him for being strong in doing this.
If he feels that was the right thing to do, then he should choose to do it, no one has the right to force choices on you, you are who who are.
If any of you don't believe he should or, or do not agree wit him, at least keep it to yourself, because sometimes, when you have different opinions you need to be tolerant even if you think the other person is not right. There is right and wrong to a certain degree, however with this issue…
"If you dont have something nice to say, don't say anything at all"
Jesus would be proud of him. Good for you, Azariah!
He is saved!
Congrats! That is a brave move! Unfortunately, the Christians (some) will be the first to turn on you…. which bogles the mind since Christ loves ALL.
Good luck, bud….Jesus loves you…and he's the best Christian I can think of that counts.
It's sad that, he knows and anyone who reads this knows- that he will lose a good amount of his viewers.
I'm not a Christian, but hypocrisy like this [ie gay issues] ran me off a long, long time ago. I'm glad he's got the balls to do it, I'm sure it's scary enough as it is, but as a television host of a Christian TV show? Yikes. Like everyone said, good for him.
Congratulations! He should be commended. He now will live is life honestly and authentically…we can all only wish for that kind of insight. I wish more courageous souls would follow his path.
I like heaven for the weather and hell for the company.
Brave, strong … and handsome!
His God given talents will continue to take him far.

ha! he looks gay
He'd better get on his knees…and repent! He is the 'Gay Messiah". Jesus is cumming, be prepared.
there are many christians who embrace the gay community - i'm glad that he had the courage to come out and hope he will be accepted by everyone in the christian community
if gay people were born gay, then were pedophiles born that way too?
gay christian is an oxymoron
WELL HE IS A "CHRISTIAN", SO HE WILL BE FORGIVEN. LOL!!!!!!!!!

wow….good for him for having the courage to do this. hopefully it will change a few minds and inspire other christians to follow their hearts and to stop hating each other over things like this. i wish him happiness and love.
Wow…Good for him!! I hope he is prepared for all the hate that the "Loving Christians" are about to bring. YOU GO GIRL!!!
Re: BO –
TRUE DAT BO, TRUE DAT.
that is so sad that he will not be accepted in the christian community anymore just because he's gay. what would jesus do? jesus would accept him and love him, not shun him!
Re: BO – IT'S OBVIOUS THAT YOU WERE BORN A NATURAL ASSHOLE, NO WAIT, YOU MADE THE CHOICE TO BE ONE!
Re: demi –
YES
Good for him. Welcome. Move here to San Francisco (it's awesome and you will love it). Maybe even find a husband. I'm still looking. Good move too. Now if they fire you hopefully you can sue them for discrimination.
Congratulations!!!
Re: BO – YOU ARE SO FULL OF SHIT YOU MUTHAH FUCKING ASSHOLE….YOU ARE AN IGNORANT KRISTIAN TURD….FOLLOWING CENTURIES OLD BULLSHIT. TAKE YOUR GOD AND BABY HAY SUESS AND SHOVE THEM RIGHT UP YOUR RUSTED SHIT SHUTE….AND I HOPE IT FUCKING KILLS YOUR COMPLETELY IGNORANT…LIKE TOTALLY RETARTED IGNORANT…WORTHLESS ASS. CAUSE I WAS BORN GAY, AND YOU WERE OBVIOUSLY BORN WITHOUT A BRAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: demi –
Were you born a closed-minded hateful asshole or did your parents just raise you that way???
Re: R.B. – AND YOU ARE A FILTHY LYING MUTHAH FUCKER….GO SUCK A COCK…YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO….ASS HOLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good for him. I'll bet he's right and he will be a better Christian for it because he won't be trying to live a lie. More time left to help others.
AND YES I AM A CHRISTIAN AND NO I AM NOT A GAY BASHER MY COUSIN IS GAY AND I LOVE HIM BUT LETS MAKE IT CLEAR IT IS WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE CLEAR AS DAY"MAN SHALL NOT LAY WITH AANOTHER MAN" THE PROBLEM IS THAT MANY PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE EITHER ATHEIST(DESTINED FOR HELL) OR DONT BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE, BUT THE WAY I SEE IT IF YOU AINT WITH GOD YOUR WITH DEVIL,BOTTOM LINE. AND YES I LOVE ALL PEOPLE GAYS INCLUDED
Jesus was a cocksucker, so he is just following his example!
I'm a christian and in total support for gay rights- good for him in coming out!!
#57 GREAT POINT
Re: BO – Don't worry, Bo. I'm sure he'll do it standing up, so there won't be a problem.
Re: WOW – Number 15, evidently you know nothing about being gay. You are taught by conformity-oriented "modern" society to lie the moment you know/feel that you are gay. Otherwise you are never treated equal, never get appointed to, voted for, or bequeathed with SHIT.
He probably just ruined his career in the Christian biz, but better free and happy than closed and oppressed.
Hmmm….Closed and oppressed.
Isn't that what religion is for?
Make sure you think this way, our way, and not your way.
Can't be an individual if you have to follow in the ways of others.
God bless him and may he know great happiness now that he has been true to who he really is. As a straight grandmother and the author of a play on this subject, I think it is way past time that the world realize like someone else said, God created different. It is no one else's place to judge. This is between him and his maker. I wish him well.
Good for him HONESTLY — for those of you who dont know. Coming out is one of the hardest thing alot of gay people ever do. Especially men.
Congrats to him. im Happy to be a part of this dam revolution sukas! =]
