Blogs are today what pamphlets and flyers were then. We all need to just focus on the issues and problems and avoid name calling. The great thing about our system of government is how easily we can change things. One can only hope that some of the waster, arrogance, and partisanship we are seeing today will still be in our minds in two years. Maybe then we will vote on issues and performance, not just because we always vote for that person or there is a D or R after their name.

Isn’t this the same kind of attitude that creates the problem that you seem to be fighting against (bigotry)? The same stance that suppresses the homosexuals and other classes? Sounds like you are part of the problem, not the solution.

Do you actually think by name calling and labeling me that you will really somehow “shame” me into silence? This country was built on guys like me standing up for what they believed and not letting anyone – even those with muskets – even those with power – to quiet their voice. Your attempts at persecuting me with insults and name calling not only fails to shame me into silence, but provokes me into having a louder voice for my beliefs. Thanks for the inspiration.

Lastly, I’m not advocating that the LGBT are treated any differently that the rest of us. What I’m advocating is that they are NOT treated any differently nor given special protections or preferences for their behaviors. I’m not advocating hating them or anyone else. Perhaps if you would not try to stereotype me with the haters, you wouldn’t misunderstand my “stupid self expression piece”.

You say that homosexuality is “dangerous” because the life-expectancy of married couples is longer. Whose fault is that, now? Last I checked, gays wanted to get married but bigots like you decided to block any attempts to get those rights. More likely to commit suicide? Last I checked, that was because of bigots again. For the record, the only “identity crisis” I’ve seen from kids and teens as far as their sexuality goes is again… guess what! Brought on because of bigots like you who try and push heterosexual lifestyles on people who obviously are not. So on those points, how DARE you even think that these effects are simply naturally intrinsic to homosexuality. They are not, they are caused by people who argue up and down that LGBT people should not be protected and given basic human dignity.

Your statistics on things like income are dependent on more factors than you are allowing shown, many LGBT people, especially youth, are in fact homeless because their families kick them out. Again… hmmm… I wonder whose fault that is?

I see it all around us here in the south at these mega churches!!!
