I had a gay cousin who died a couple years ago. He was a liberals liberal from teenage on up in a family of conservative Christians that he lived with his entire life. Except for one short trip to CA he lived with his parents, didn't work since his 20's. A complete bum. I don't think the gay thing had anything to do with his being a bum and recluse ... at least he wasn't a drinker or doper. I do think his liberal anti-conservative views were driven by his sexual orientation. My Dad says he accepted Christ as he was dying. My parents cared for him as he deteriorated. Why did he live with his parents? Virtually nobody wants to persecute gay people. But the push is on now to force everyone to like gayness .... we've got a gay czar that has a history of pushing gay porn for school kids. We've already seen the Catholic church pushed out of the adoption arrangement business in MA over gay marraige and churches tax deductions, Boy Scout access to public parks and buildings, doctors and even photographers punished by courts and "human rights" departments over willingness to take part in gay marraiges, have gay Scout leaders, etc. Who cares if children are hurt - we have a gay thought control regime to push. The aggressive side seeking to enforce thought control on others is the gay and pro-gay liberal side now. You have some serious problems. I suggest you accept Christ and all his teachings before you die.

Your thoughts are too extreme, Brumar. Why do you think gays tend to vote with Dems and not the GOP? It's because the GOP wants to force their religion on gays by denying them the right to the same benefits heteros get. Also, you are making a typical mistake of conflating being gay with being a pedophile. That's ignorance. It's intolerance like this that lead our founders to create an entirely new country. If you like intolerance, perhaps you should go live with the Taliban. The GOP is looking more and more like them with their religious intolerance, gay bashing, and ideological stances on everything. You should try loving your neighbor, despite their flaws. It's liberating. Jesus didn't preach hate. Why do you espouse it?
