I hope he gets the help he needs before it's too late. It's not even about his disdain for homosexuality (which obviously isn't great), but the fact that he is so recently loudly and heavily invested in extreme Christian positions that you often only see in a town square or a busy street at night over a loudspeaker.

Ivey recently revealed that he was sexually abused as a child and these livestream rants soon followed. Getting waived by your team and having people pile on you probably isn't the best thing for your mental health. Hopefully he has people around him who love him and can help him before something even worse happens.

Unfortunately in the social media era, these positions, that would otherwise be limited to those hearing it in a town square or on that busy nighttime street, get broadcast to the world, and thousands of other Jaden Iveys who have the same opinion chime in, and all of a sudden it's a movement.


I haven't looked into this, but what did Ivey say that is outside of mainstream Evangelical belief?  I saw that he called homosexuality/ Pride month as "unrighteousness". 

I'm not religious, and I see no moral issue with homosexuality.  But, I'm a little surprised to see others this as a particularly rare belief.  I guess my assumption is that it's a thought held by millions of people.  Are there other comments he's made?

He called Catholicism a "fake religion".  I know he was asking reporters if they fornicated pre-marriage which seems insanely unprofessional.

Interesting.  He sounds like an idiot that is attempting to regurgitate ideas / beliefs he's been exposed to that he hasn't fully thought through.
