Carol, yes I believe you did miss something which was very obvious.

Stereotyping Christians and believing that they are so intolerant of the gay lifestyle that they kick their children out into the street is bigotry in the worst kind.

Citing some ridiculous statistics that one quarter of the 30% of homeless children in San Fransisco are there because there families were christian and kicked them out is pure popycock!

Let's see that leaves well over 70% who were not christian and on the street. I guess that means they came from atheists or Wicca households huh?

What a crock!

I've never walked the streets of San Francisco, but I have walked the streets of Seattle and Bremerton many times, and I can tell you the children are not there because they came from Christian households who thought they were gay.

Children are far more likely to be on the streets and homeless because they came from broken homes, where one or both of the parents are alcoholics and or drug dependant than Christians.

It's to bad that every time an interesting conversation develops Christine feels the need to turn it into her personal vendetta against Christianity.

Christians are far more likely to be the ones walking the streets at night trying to help the homeless children than any other group of people.

If you don't believe me, I encourage you to join the local chapter of "Stand Up for Kids" and find out for yourself.
