Someone here doesn't know the Bible. The Tower of Babel wasn't a good thing. The people of Babel were arrogant and thought they could build a tower to reach heaven. God was displeased, so He created all of the different languages so they couldn't work together to do this again.
Genesis 11:
4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”
5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building. 6 The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”
Well that's some liberal logic there .... Does the post say Andrew Torba wants to support the Tower of Babel (FakeBook) and start his bible study (Gab) in the tower's basement?
NO ... The post says they/we need a separate place where we are not persecuted.
Honestly, WTF does any of your verses have to do with anything that Torba said other than the name Babel!?!?
First sentence says the Lord never told us to assimilate with the enemy and try to change them from within.
Second sentence references Matthew 5:14
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
He's saying quit feeding the beast in hopes of changing the devil's ways, you're misleading yourself. We have to stand on our own and build our own platforms.

.... Effing Snopes employees shit posting on GAW
I think you need to reread Torba's post a little closer. He's not saying what you think he's saying.
Maybe you should reread the quote ...

Exactly how I read it too. Don't know what others who think the opposite are smoking.
