Lest I Be Accused of Being Homophobic...



Let me assure you I am not. I have many gay and lesbian friends. My problem is with men who know they are gay and choose to marry, thus stealing years away from a woman -- years when she could have been with someone who loved her the way a woman deserves to be loved. Not years being used as a beard to make a man socially acceptable. Not years filled with bad sex that makes a woman feel like she's the one who has a problem with sexuality.

Rick Welts, the president of the Phoenix Suns basketball team, recently revealed he's gay. And the world seems to find this remarkable.

I find it unremarkable. He's gay. So what? That's the way he's hardwired and it can't be changed. The political and religious right would have you believe otherwise, silly ignorant twits that they are.

I saw this comment on a post about Welts coming out.

Moronic neanderthals are whining about gays being an abomination against God, yet these same idiots will blindly worship false sports idols who :
1. Physically and emotionally abuse women
2. Practice greed and self- indulgence
3. Cheat on their wives and girlfriends
4. Abuse their own bodies with alcohol and drugs
5. Commit random acts of violence
6. Show poor examples of sportsmanship and fair play
7. Consistently show a lack of maturity and self- control

Can I get an amen?

And what about all the religious and political conservatives who do the same?  Think Ted Haggard, Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggart, Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh and the list goes on and on and on.
