Look, the worse thing that happened to her is she may have lost out being crowned. I understand she was a not in the lead going into this segment so she more than likely would not have won anyway. Meanwhile, Perez was a fag, he is a fag and he will be a fag tomorrow.

"... host Matt Lauer a ..."

Matt Lauer is the greatest sissy I've ever seen this side of Tiny Tim. Even calling him a "girly-man" would be too generous.

"I can't get over the fact that until a relatively short time ago everyone was against homosexuality"

ZC:

I'm with you and I used to get angry and frustrated about things. But then it became clear. The nation and culture changed SO quickly because we banned faith from schools, adults stopped going to church, and something else had to fill the vacuum.

Dennis Prager documented that throughout human history, when mankind abandoned fundamentally decent principles, homosexuality and craven behavior always filled the void. Homosexuality is not the cause, but it is definitely one of the primary symptoms.

As a Christian, I also believe that evil, e.g., Satan, runs amok and uses the faithless void to take over hearts. That's how a child can turn so dramatically against the established culture of his parents.

So I've stopped wringing my hands about it. I'm middle-aged and realize that all I can do is vote, raise my children right, stay involved in my church, and have an impact on those within my orbit. Also, I pray that God's will be done, in spite of all this folderol. Because matters have been far more evil and degenerate in the past.

As the Book of Ecclesiastes says, "there is nothing new under the sun."

why have an homo on it who doesn’;t like women anyway?

Who better to judge the 'fabulous' gowns, the vibrant colors, the awesome hairdos??? Perhaps, just planning/designing the next 'drag' follies.

I love this girl! Morals and the confidence to stand up for what she believes in. There are not enough women like her in the limelight anymore.:)

"While our theologies are miles apart, I appreciate the words. "

But we certainly share the same Judeo-Christian heritage, the Book of Ecclesiastes, and hopefully an appreciation of Dennis Prager, with whom I hope you are familiar (clearest-thinking radio talk show host, Orthodox Jew, the perfect combination of modern man and traditionalist). And, incidentally, we Christians do not view the divide between Christian and Jew to be vast at all. However, I recognize that not all Jews agree with this position, and I respect that.

Manc, you are right. I worry that we are quickly becoming a Nation that is not worth spit. Just like this beautiful young lady that made a simple statement of her values and was verbally assaulted by someone that many of us would not allow in our homes. He is protrayed as a perfectly normal person, while he is in reality he is a vile demented creature.

If we have come to a time when this sick gay man is respected above a women who just gave her opinion, if perversion is now the norm and family values are mocked, ridiculed and hated then we may be close to losing the battle. But I tell you what, I at least want to go down in battle. They are not right and who wants to live in a Nation of deviates?

Thank you.

Actually, I'm not a Jew. I'm a Noachide and a former chr*stian myself. And unfortunately, Dennis Prager is not an Orthodox Jew (I wish he were).

Over years and years of searching for the truth I have my own theories of why things the way they are, but unfortunately I don't think I could post these opinions here because they are critical of chr*stianity, albeit from the Right rather than from the Left (people think that Judaism is to the Left of chr*stianity but this is actually impossible because Judaism is the parent religion from which chr*stianity separated itself).

I'd actually like to post a vanity featuring these thoughts of mine but unfortunately all anyone would notice is that they are "anti-chr*stian." Of course they are! I believe chr*stianity is wrong, how can I not be "anti-chr*stian?" Meanwhile I grew up in a culture where the claims of Catholicism against Protestantism were every bit as outlandish and scandalous as the claims of Judaism vis a vis chr*stianity, but for some reason Catholics are allowed to critique Protestantism but Jews/Noachides are not allowed to critique chr*stianity. But the thing is, chr*stianity is critiqued all the time from the Left. Why wouldn't any honest chr*stian like to at least see an honest critique of chr*stianity from the Right, from the point of view of the older religion?

There is a poll on Yahoo at this time on this subject.

Our side is pounding the gay butt boys like Hilton.

http://js.polls.yahoo.com/quiz/quiziframe.php?poll_id=44881

Go to the site and vote to pound more shame on the truly ugly/two ton gay butt boy, Hilton.

Q. Carrie Prejean caused a stir on the Miss USA stage when she said marriage should only be between a man and a woman. Judge Perez Hilton and others in the pageant slammed the response, which may have cost her the crown. On the talk-show circuit Prejan has stood by her response and garnered praise from opponents of same-sex marriage.

What do you think? Does Prejean deserve criticism or praise for her response?

She should be criticized. That sort of prejudice should never be tolerated. 11%
She should be praised for expressing her opinion. 87%
Not sure/No opinion. 1%

40907 votes
