This whole issue is an example of the way goodie two shoes people run the better than thou mantra to play the “we are the way everybody needs to be” without room for tolerance. Sure, many of us believe that the gay lifestyle is opposed to Biblical teaching. Ann Speaking to that group is in no way legitimizing the lifestyle. No more then a pastor who speaks to that same group would. We don’t know Ann’s view of gays and certainly don’t know what she is going to say in her speech.
If we keep destroying the people on the conservative side of the spectrum is it any wonder that the left controls? The bickering and fighting does nothing to advance the goals of the conservatives in this country.
You are actually quite wrong. The whole issue is why a supposed conservative speaker is going to speak at a convention of liberal homosexual agenda pushers who state upfront that their only interest is “gay” issues?
The question is - will she suckup to them or will she tell them that 90% of their agenda is leftist and unconstitutional?
“This whole issue is an example of the way goodie two shoes people run the better than thou mantra to play the “we are the way everybody needs to be” without room for tolerance.”
First of all, just because a person points out serious errors does not make them a “goody two shoes.” That is sophistry. I cannot claim to speak for others, but I believe my views are widely held. I WILL NOT EVER COMPROMISE OF THE ISSUE OF HOMOSEXUALITY...UPON EVEN PAIN OF DEATH.
Bottome line folks....chose which side you are on. You can be for what is called “tolerance” that will lead to a screwed up America (or at least more screwed up). Or you can listen to what folks like Farah and myself are telling you....we are a sizeable number....much more than a handful of homosexuals that AT MOST make up 1-3% of the population (except in Hollywood). Were are telling you we won’t compromise.....IF you compromise on the homosexual issue, you will lose my(our) support....a substantial part of the base. The nonsense you have been reading about shifting opinions is just that....nonsense.
A country that allows sexual deviants or libertines to run amuck is NOT what I’m trying to “conserve.” The base word of “conservative.”
