Pray Out the Gay? Nah, Let's Just Punch Out the Gay.

I give you an excerpt from the text to the Southern Baptist Convention's "Resolution on Homosexuality in Public Schools," otherwise known as, "Fear Will Keep the Faggots in Line":

Whereas, many public schools are promoting acceptance of homosexuality as a legitimate lifestyle through programs that use such deceptive labels as "Safe Sex," "Diversity Training", "Multicultural Education" , "Anti-Bullying", and "Safe Schools";

Once again, powerful religious conservatives show that they can't recognize the difference between stopping someone from calling another person "faggot" and telling them that gayness rules.

Then again, given the long laundry list of questionable data they throw out, I'm beginning to believe that may be intentional:

Whereas, homosexual activists are devoting substantial resources and are using their political influence to shape the curricula and institutional rules of public schools to promote acceptance of homosexuality among schoolchildren as a morally legitimate lifestyle because, as one pro-homosexual author has written, "Whoever captures the kids owns the future"

Wow, one author? That really colors the whole movement. Oh, and if he's such an important "pro-homosexual" author, then name him.

Whereas, there is evidence that the homosexual lifestyle reduces life expectancy more than smoking

Right, as conducted by a man who got his ass roundly kicked out of the APA for shoddy research.

Whereas, studies have shown that homosexual identity is associated with increased risk of self-destructive behaviors such as illegal drug use, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and "domestic" violence

The SBC really doesn't recognize the idea of the self fulfilling prophecy, do they? "We treat gay people like crap, they feel horrible all their lives and seek release vicariously... it must be all their faults!"

The SBC really does think that we are corrupt and will corrupt others by any exposure. Is it really so farfecthed that they would employ any legal means, including condoning bullying, to move against us?

Comments:
I meet SO many Europeans here on South Beach, and they all have the same message: the country is being destroyed both image-wise and--in a round about way, but related--by corporate interests. We are bankrupting our treasury and our souls.

Alas.
 
So, it's not us gays, then? Phew.
