it’s only right, only fair, and only Just.

What’s your point?

What is wrong, is wrong…no group has a lock on illicit, immoral, unethical behavior.

When a white christian male goes out and diddles a sheep in his field does that automatically make every white christian male a sheep diddler?

And I use the word “diddler” because it’s totally hilarious.

I don’t think the mayor decided policy based solely on his daughter’s orientation.

I DO think that it made him second guess denying civil liberties to fellow Americans.

and pedophilia has NOTHING to do with
“sexual orientation and/or religion”.

Heterosexual, fundamentalist Christians who are politicians should not be using THEIR sexual orientation and their religious beliefs to set policy which denies homosexuals equal rights.

And, you know, some of the same people who conflate homosexuality and pedophilia also conflate 911 with Iraq. Serious stuff? Absolutely.

Can we talk about more serious stuff, like the war?

The truth will set you free.

Well, by looking at the long list of conservative pedophiles who claim morality I think the mothers were far too repressive in their views of sex. Sex is bad, sex is evil, sex is satans work, you will go blind, kissing makes a girl pregnant, hairy palms etc etc etc. has just the opposite effect in later life. Sex should be discussed not locked away like a playboy in the old mans closet.

By Golly, sex feels good, why did my mother lie to me? But I must hide and repress my true feelings and act like I hate those whom are gay.

Three Cheers for Harry Burn and His Mother! :)

I wonder that about a lot of Members of Congress today, too. And the Executive Branch.

Dear toasterhead –

Here’s a link you’ll enjoy. It’s a fascinating story, and one that will make everyone realize just how close the battle was. Today we can’t imagine adult American women being denied the right to vote, but in 1920 the very notion had a great deal of opposition.

I imagine there will also be a day in the future when we will have a hard time imagining that anybody would be against committed, monogamous couples being denied the right to marry simply because they were gay.

I have to wonder about all the respresentatives who voted “Nea” on the Amendment, and where their mothers went wrong.

I wonder that about a lot of Members of Congress today, too. And the Executive Branch.

Tennessee was the 36th state to ratify the 19th amendment, giving American women the right to vote in 1920. Rumor has it that it was a close vote in the Tennessee legislature, and the state representative who put the “yea”s over the top was a guy who did it because he felt it unfair that his mother, a woman he obviously loved and respected, was denied the right to vote.

It’s a lot easier to do the right thing when you can see how the decision you make directly affects the people you know.
