His apology only dug a deeper hole for himself.

Now, after listing his gay friends, he has become sexually suspect.

The only way to win is to stand your ground.

Thanks for the audio.

It sounds, just as JP said, that his English is poor and he inadvertently used the wrong word. He meant to say that gays can sometimes get too extreme in the expression of their gay attributes around impressionable children. JP dropped in the noun "pervert" and used it as an adjective instead of an adjective like "extreme". By using a noun as an adjective, it is clear that he did not know the import of the word "pervert". It sounds like he picked it up as an anglicized word from Spanish slang. So JP should get a pass on "pervert" from the homosexual mafia.

The problem is that JP's comment, correctly understood, is a much greater offense to homosexuals than the use of a derogatory term. JP said that homosexuals cannot be trusted to stay in the closet around children. That is Putinesque, and JP did NOT apologize for that. His three actual apologies, are empty, pandering and refer only to the correct but trivial use of the word. As such, they leave him in no man's land, in favor with neither normal folks nor the homosexual mafia.

In terms of self preservation, he should just have said nothing, worked the charm, and pleaded language difficulty when grilled.

“But before I retired recently, I used to work with a lot blue-collar type young people. They were not so accepting of homosexual behavior.”

Different demographic than college students. Most have never worked blue collar jobs (other than at the mall).

“And I’ll bet a very large pct. of the general population, including many libs, still find it repugnant.”

Agree.

“They will not say so openly, but I’d like to see them take a polygraph. I don’t think the results would be something the homo lobby would like. “

Double agree, if given the chance to offer their own private thoughts with no fear of mocking, accusations of ‘homophobia’ or threat of becoming a social outcast.

Don’t tell me they don’t shove their perversion in our faces.


Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

Given the theme of “The Bachelor” I don’t think he needs to worry.

It didn't take him long to retract it all:

"I want to apologize to all the people I may have offended because of my comments on having a Gay or Bisexual Bachelor. The comment was taken out of context. If you listen to the entire interview, there's nothing but respect for Gay people and their families. I have many gay friends and one of my closest friends who's like a brother has been a constant in my life especially during the past 5 months. The word pervert was not what I meant to say and I am very sorry about it. Everyone knows English is my second language and my vocabulary is not as broad as it is in Spanish and, because of this, sometimes I use the wrong words to express myself. What I meant to say was that gay people are more affectionate and intense and for a segment of the TV audience this would be too racy to accept. The show is very racy as it is and I don't let my 5 year old daughter watch it. Once again, I'm sorry for how my words were taken. I would never disrespect anyone."

God is going to not get ignored, even if the world has to half go to hell first.

Jude 1:7
In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.

In terms of TRUTH, he should just looked puzzled, worked the charm, and asked in return, "What did I say that was WRONG? Queers ARE prevents; as EVERYONE with two brain cells to rub together knows!"
