If you can preach that homosexuals are sinners and abnormal, then what about Moslems, Jews, atheists, etc.?" Are homosexuals people?? PEOPLE have basic human rights to LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS ; yet you also claim that homosexuals have this "right" only if you are permitted to denigrate, insult, and persecute them from the sidelines--and thus make them less than people. People do have basic human rights, don't they? So are homosexuals people?? Do they have a right to shut down your little mouth and sew it up tight?? Do they have a right to mock you, spit on you, and hate you? Of course they do. But the real question is this: Are intolerant assholes the future or the demise of the human race??We have just witnessed the most profound and graphic demonstration of why "Hate Crimes" legislation should never see the light of day. The UN conference on Racism. Is that where you were for the last while?
