But where is the GM employee who is a Christian who is strong enough to walk away from GM and make another life?

There's the rub.

It's all "hot air". The people don't vote with their feet anymore because fear has transcended faith in the United States. We are, in effect, enslaved by the IUO called the US Dollar.

Central banking has replaced morality.

And people wonder why I think the party's over. America is in "big time" trouble with no end in sight. Diversity, perversity, secularism, abortion, and etc. have this country looking like a bunch of moral morons. Absolutely NONE of this tide is being pushed back. Religous leaders, where are you? Hiding behind your 501C3s? Lord help us!

To this Bible-believing Christian, to say that an individual's "sexual orientation" falls into the category of a factor that "cannot be changed or chosen", well, them's fighting words!

To this MIT-trained biologist, it's an assertion that has not been scientifically proven. In the absence of such proof, thousands of years of tradition in multiple cultures (condemnation of homosexuality is hardly limited to the Judaeo-Christian tradition) should not be lightly discarded.

This is kind of amusing- I appreciate thr fact that this guy is standing up for his beliefs, but it's ironic that he's using anti-discrimination laws that are usually the weapon of choice for the left-wing crowd.

I would go so far as to say that GM should be allowed to sponsor, or not sponsor, whatever group it wants. The rest of us are free to show our displeasure with their sponsorship choices by buying a Ford.

What ever happened to going to work and actually working? But, companies brought it on themselves by allowing all this extra-curricular nonsense.

That's because the homosexuals have altered the language of the debate by such words as "homophobia" and "sexual orientation".

Rush irritated the crap out of me during a recent discussion of whether judicial nominee Pryor was "homophobic" for rescheduling a Disneyworld visit to avoid "Gay Days". Simply by using that idiotic and newly-coined word he legitimized the argument of Pryor's detractors - namely that Pryor "hated and feared gays". The fact of the matter is Mr. Pryor was simply trying to keep his children from being exposed to open homosexual "displays of affection" such as grabbing crotches, face-sucking, etc.

I'd have done the same. That's not what people take their kids to Disneyworld to see.

Sexual orientation is more properly termed sexual preference, for the behavior is chosen. It is not innate or inborn, no matter how much the homosexuals would like to pretend it is. And while there may be a very few people who actually suffer from homophobia (irrational or extreme fear of homosexuals), most people simply don't want to hear about it or have to look at it. When forced to, the reaction isn't fear, but disgust.

In the absence of proof, the proper government role is silence. Let consenting, responsible (using the legal meaning) adults do what they want in private. But there is no 'right' for homosexuals to force others to accept public displays of their lifestyle when it is in direct conflict with the philosophy of a majority of citizens. They don't just want the 'right' to be homosexual. They want official, public affirmation of their lifestyle itself, and that requires people of faith in any of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam to give up key tenets of their faith.

Until and unless there is valid scientific proof that their condition is intrinsic and unchangeable - as race and gender are - or until the majority of citizens in the democracy embrace that lifestyle, this is not an issue for government.

"...it's an assertion that has not been scientifically proven."

Science has the evidence - given from reformed "Gays".

As evidenced by the natural biological functions of the male/female and as testified to by every other specie on the planet, I'd be least likely to assume homosexuality is anything but a choice to pervert the natural use of one's body.

IOW, science has not proven - nor has one thread of evidence that the initial perversion is anything less than a choice - but much to the contrary. After engaging in the acts frequently, the individual becomes the slave of HABIT.

Despite that policy, G.M. has no hesitation in sanctioning GM PLUS, a group with the stated mission of supporting gay and lesbian issues.

This is happening in my company as well. We have the Rainbow Initiative, which has resulted in over 70% of the local workforce at least, in being gay.

Problem is, the company is shutting down their entire west coast operation and outsourcing everything to India. The gay employees have filed a class action lawsuit based on anti-discrimination laws. It doesn't matter that everybody (not just gays) either has been or soon will be fired.

Now management is tap dancing on the head of a pin to show that only gay Indian offshore workers will be hired to replace them.

Incredible.

Not only have thousands left the homosexual lifestyle, there is no biological or genetic evidence to support homosexuality. The facts support, overwhelmingly, the major factor in determining homosexuality is environment.

Links for homosexuals to find help out of the lifestyle:

Again, environment is the key factor in determining homosexuality. Here's some links on genetics and environment

It's difficult to avoid all pro-homosexual agenda organizations. We do what we can, but for major purchases we do even more, and that means avoiding GM.

according to Brian Akre, G.M.'s director of news relations, as quoted by Cybercast News Service, the company "does not recognize religious or political organizations as company-sponsored affinity groups because of the divisiveness inherent in trying to accomodate their widely disparate views."

So, according to General Motors, being a Christian is inherently divisive and political. Being gay is not. I always wondered how 2% of the population (homosexuals) amassed so much political power.

Diversity in and of itself promotes "widely disparate views." The very root Latin meaning of diversity is "apartness." When you stereotype folks according to the skin color/race, you are not truly dealing with the diversity of folks who are distinct one from another. You're guilty of lumping folks into rainbow categories 'cause there's only 7 colors on their rainbow scale.

Uh, I hate to tell you this, but Ford does sponsor a anti-heterosexual affinity group, with a high level corporate officer as an advisor. It has done so for years. The group caters to the needs of anti-heterosexual, bi-sexual, and transgendered employees. I don't believe that you're going to find too many car companies that do business in the US that don't kiss their butts. Its no longer feeling the need for speed, its the need for speed bumps.

You may also be interested to know that the anti-homosexual movement plays a prominent role in the national so called "cool cities" initiative. They add a certain attraction to the large cities don't you know? Here in Michigan, our "cool" governor jenny mulhern has designated Detroit as a "cool" city, and named its mayor, Kwame (the Hip Hop mayor) Kilpatrick, the state's first cool cities mayor. Mayor hip hop celebrated by buying a larger diamond stud earring to replace the boulder he was sporting.
