The party is over... Turn the techno music off, put down the rainbow flags and butt plugs and have the likes of Mark Morford and his ilk sweep up the empty popper bottles from the floor...

Psalm 15 KJV:
1 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4 [He] In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

The homos in Kuala Lumpur are not agressive like many are in the US. I usually see them on Sunday at the rear(park)
entrance to the Petronas Towers, at the cafe's. They tend to stick together, and don't bother/harass anyone.
In California it is a whole new ballgame. I had to kick one guy's a$$ years ago, as he kept pawing me: )

I am not tolerant, never have been. I'm often decorous, but tolerance is for people with no spirit.

Oh, good. Where'd everybody go, then, finding their spirit?

A contrario -- got it Exactly Right, I'd say.

So here it is again!

"I am not tolerant, never have been. I'm often decorous -- but tolerance is for people with no spirit."

Hear! Hear!

From what I read, it would appear that much of the United States is now become tolerant.

What happens if someone speaks out against homosexuality there?

I still like "dictatorship of relativism," but SoT works too.
