It's amazing what people will embrace as measures to achieve their particular ends, no matter how horrific. Clearly they don't learn from history. Expect to hear more voices like that preacher until homophobia has been planted on the ash heap of history with other bigotry.

I think that's probably a bit of a move forward, for them. Seeing it as a disability rather than a choice to do "evil" is a huge leap forward for some people. We could always wish they'd leaped a bit farther, but people have to start where they are.

>>He asked Baptists to brace for this possibility and then went on to say that he supported giving in vitro injections or taking more severe measures to prevent babies from being born homosexual.<< Suma - Wow. What a horrifying thing for him to say. So apparently, abortion is murder, but it's OK to murder a future homosexual. I don't understand this kind of thinking. If these people believe homosexuality is a sin against God, why don't they just let God take care of the punishment. Why do they feel they have to get involved in the process? - Allen
