The new faces of social conservatism are: Carrie Prejean, Joe the Plumber, Marion Barry, Bernard Ayotte, Michael Savage, Fred Phelps and Bristol Palin


UNHINGED, the ¨haters,¨ Part One


The Conservative Implosion
By Wayne Besen, columnist


¨Sharing the anti-gay spotlight was caustic talk show host Michael Savage and the Kansas preacher noted for picketing military funerals with “God Hates Fags” signs, Fred Phelps and his wife, Shirley.

Pastor Fred Phelps leader of the ¨God Hates Fags¨ Conservative(?) Campaign

¨They were banned from visiting England and publicly scorned for their bigoted views. While I do not agree with their banishment (neither do civil liberties groups), it does force social conservatives into the PR nightmare of having to turn Savage and Phelps into “creep celebres.”

Pastor James Dobson, ¨I have to ask, have we all gone completely mad?¨


¨Even the “mainstream” anti-gay activists seem to have come unhinged. In stating his opposition to federal hate crime legislation, James Dobson appeared in a video where he falsely claimed that the inclusion of “sexual orientation” opened the door to, “bisexuality, exhibitionism, fetishism, incest, necrophilia, pedophilia, prostitution, sexual masochism, voyeurism, bestiality.” Dobson added for effect, “I have to ask, ‘have we all gone completely mad?’”

Does madness lurk in the hearts of fear/hate-mongers? ¨anti-gay activists seem to have come unhinged¨

¨Let me reiterate, so you can fully appreciate and savor the situation. The new faces of social conservatism are: Carrie Prejean, Joe the Plumber, Marion Barry, Bernard Ayotte, Michael Savage, Fred Phelps and Bristol Palin. With such luminaries, it should be no surprise that the GLBT community has had a string of incredible victories. Somewhere in the process of passing the torch to the next generation, anti-gay activists have stumbled and are in danger of burning down the homophobic house.¨

¨Scott Lively, California chapter director of the AFA, is co-author of a book titled, The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality and the Nazi Party, in which he claims that "homosexuals [are] the true inventors of Nazism and the guiding force behind many Nazi atrocities." Lively makes explicit links between his claims about the Nazi party and the modern gay equal rights movement, claiming that "From the ashes of Nazi Germany, the homo-fascist phoenix has arisen again, this time in the United States." read it all, click HERE


The ¨gang¨ of U.S. based anti-gay activists seem unhinged as they lead a current ¨Pogrom¨ underway with corrupt Politicians and highly superstitious ¨religious¨ extremists in Uganda. read it all, click HERE

Amazing isn't it? These are the people who are defining Christianity to many in this country. No wonder they feel Christianity is under attack! They way they define it; I should hope so! Trouble is I haven't figured out a way to counter it. Loving isn't nearly as newsworthy as hating.

Dear Elizabeth,

Loving is what we do. Loving it what we have always done. Loving was fine as long as all pretended that LGBT Episcopalians/Christians and others were different than they really are...but then, loved turned to hate or ¨love the sinner, hate the sin¨ doubletalking...now is the time to show what love is really made out of...it includes Gods reality, observing God´s Commandments, and keep a keen eye on ones OWN character defects/sin...the rest is a piece of cake after we get away from the fear and hate that is keeping many from using their authentic personal integrity...I don´t think God wants us to deny and pretend anymore...that part is CLEAR AS A BELL! Then being personally responsible and accountable will quickly follow!
