And the Ali Forney Center is NOT having it.

James David Manning, a pastor at ATLAH (“All the Land Anointed Holy”), a conservative church located in Harlem, New York has announced plans to celebrate a postponement of a bankruptcy auction by burning a LGBT pride flag.

The Ali Forney Center, one of the nation’s largest organizations helping LGBT homeless youth has announced a demonstration to protest the flag burning.

“Reverend Manning’s threat to burn the rainbow flag in the courtyard of his church is reprehensible, especially in the aftermath of the Orlando Massacre,” Carl Siciliano, founder and executive director of Ali Forney Center said in a statement.

“We plan to surround his church with rainbow flags, the symbol of our pride as a community, to show that our pride cannot be destroyed, symbolically or otherwise. The best response to his hate is a display of community love and pride by the LGBT community and our allies.”

The Harlem church was facing foreclosure over unpaid water bills. Now the court case will be heard and Manning plans to argue that the church is tax exempt even though the NYC Dept. of Environmental protection previously determined that it does not qualify for exemption since there are six residential apartments in the church building.

This is not the first time Manning has made headlines. Since President Obama’s election in 2008 he has frequently filled his church sign with hate speak about the president and gay people. In 2014 the ATLAH sign was vandalized with spray painted message that said “God Is Gay.”

“Gay people are just outright bullies,” Manning said about the incident.
