Human petri dishes don’t like FR.
“Not having heard of the site before”
.........a n d this is where I stopped reading.
This gay man thinks that disobeying God leads to freedom.
He is exactly wrong.
>>National polls find that most Americans do not think gay and lesbian educators would harm children.
****
more BS.
Most Americans thought voting for Obama would bring about Nirvana on Earth too .....
He’s so right!
Let’s ban Free Republic and other “hate speech”!
/sarc
Grab yer barf bag, Jim...
lol...the poofter's a real sharpy.
He thought 'free' meant free as in free love (homo love, ie)
>>>I also quickly realized the website does not really stand for a free republic. They want a minority, conservative Christians, to control Washington. What’s “free” about that?<<<
Let’s indulge in a little deconstruction of this writer’s state of mind.
He opened the website and had a quick realization. In other words, certain words and prompts elicited an automatic response - a stereotype. Once he had embraced the stereotype - which he does, since he has no hesitation moving beyond the stereotype into declarative statements - other features of the website are inferred, which saves the writer time, certainly.
It is notable that the writer never describes the word “republic,” even though robust debate and public comment without fear of reprisal are often elements found in a republic.
We understand the writer is now seeing his stereotype, not the actual website, by the use of the pronoun “they.” Now that the writer has created an entire universe eminating from his stereotype, he can safely compartmentalize the other as “they.”
“They” are Christians. Really? I’m not. “They” want minority control. No proof is needed - the mere belief in the stereotype confirms the conclusion. It is axiomatic, therefore, for the writer to conflate religious belief in
American culture and the desire for minority rule. Of course, I’ve never done a search at Free Republic for “Christian theocracy.” Perhaps there are dozens of postings.
Note the locus of power in the writer’s worldview. “They” want to control Washington. In this writer’s mind, one city in the United States is the expression of power - not the people, not the Constitution, not the law. A place, like the Eternal City.
Then the straw man, faithful and dull. Once the writer has posited the stereotype as prevailing wisdom, he then thinks he has knocked one out of the park with his witty reference to freedom. But the canny reader knows that the jest only works if the initial observation is based on fact.
What a sad writer.
I wonder if the author of the article would have enough guts to address Mr. Jennings’ background and his fitness for the position of “safe school czar”? Well, how about it, South Florida Gay News staff writer?
Is there something about homosexuality that makes the author overuse commas?
Bah. The article’s author is just a pathetic person with a sexual disorder who has lost all sense of propriety in this world in his lonely quest for meaning in life through endless orgasms, regardless of what unnatural acts he has to subject his body and psyche to.
Well, you know what they say. FReep ‘em if they can’t take a joke.
