We told you that apology was BS…
On Monday, Manny Pacquiao came under fire for some comments he made in an interview comparing homosexuals to animals.
The athlete then released a public apology for for what he said — even though he was still against the idea of same-sex marriage “because of what the Bible says.”

Well, apparently that apology didn’t mean a whole lot as Manny reportedly took to Instagram early Thursday morning to share a Biblical message condemning gays to death!
The boxer’s post, which has since been deleted, originally read:
But just in case you want a clearer view, the close-minded caption said:
“Luke 6:22-23 [22] Blessed are you when people hate you, when the exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. [23] Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets. Leviticus 18:22 [22] Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a women; that is detestable.
Leviticus 20:13 [13] If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 [9] Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolators nor adulterers nor…”
Classy, real classy Manny.

As for the world championship boxer’s contract reportedly ending with Nike, there’s one MAJOR sports legend who’s very happy about the news — Magic Johnson!
The basketball Hall of Famer took to Twitter on Thursday to share his thoughts on Manny’s firing, saying:
I applaud Nike for terminating Manny Pacquiao’s contract after his derogatory statements that gay people are worse than animals.

Fans of all walks of life including gay fans supported May/Pac fight putting $100M in his pocket. I guess to him their money is still green.
