Furious that a large group of San Francisco-area Catholics have written a letter protesting the anti-gay rhetoric of Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, conservative talk show host Michael Savage said last week that gay rights supporters are “the Nazis of today.”

Savage said that the Archbishop’s “narrow-minded critics” should just leave the Roman Catholic Church and stop “persecuting the rest of us.”

“This is how bullies operate,” he said. “They’re the bullies, the Nazis of today are these bullies.”

Savage, who is seemingly under the impression that LGBT equality will end all heterosexual relationships and curtail procreation, later claimed that gay rights advocates will ultimately “destroy the human race” by teaching “children filth and pollution.”

“They want to eliminate the difference between the sexes, they want you to believe that God made man and woman identical,” Savage said. “Go tell that to the duck in the pond. You people are so stupid that you’ve lost touch with reality. Somehow Donald Duck knows who Daisy Duck is. He doesn’t mount Billy Duck or there would be no eggs and no ducks. So Donald Duck has more brains than these hundred people.”
