Morford: The Love That Killed America (Bible-clutching homophobes recoil, violently to gay marriage)

San Francisco Chronicle ^ | Wednesday, November 19, 2003 | Mark Morford, Always a Bridesmaid

[presidio9]

The gays are marching in. The end is near. Sheer unadulterated evil and scary anal sex and superlative hair products and new blasts of fresh happy love are to be unleashed anew upon the country. Horror is nigh. Everyone into the bunker.

[presidio9]

Thank God Morford is finally off the meds. Anal sex in sentence two has to be a new record for her.

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

The more passionately religious you are, the more hateful and small minded you become

No bigotry here, no siree!

[presidio9]

BTW Mark, in case you ever go straight:

Meet your DREAM GIRL.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Reading Miss Morford's stuff is almost as much fun as running engines without oil!

[Dane]

Morford really needs to leave it's cocoon of San Francisco and see the real America.

[Puppage]

People are terrified. Religious people, in particular.

No, people with MORALS.

[TRY ONE]

"People are terrified. Religious people, in particular. Hyperzealous, evangelical, white, borderline fanatical religious people who apparently don't see a lot of sunlight and never read books and believe everything their homophobic intolerant Bible-spouting evangelical pastor..."

No, Monford, we're not terrified non Homophobic (phobic means fear of) we're Homodisgustie! (Sick of you sh*t)

[Rummyfan]

Regardless of Morford's rantings, no culture, country, or civilization in the history of the world has ever officially sanctioned homosexula marriage (have they?). The only word I can use to describe this state of affairs is abominable!

[presidio9]

Are you serious? Our next door neighbor did it this summer. Did you cancel all your newspaper subscriptions?

[Scenic Sounds]

a painful wart on the big toe of progress.

I certainly hope that the good folks here at FR will never allow themselves to become "a painful wart on the big toe of progress."

[TheAngryClam]

Morford got something right: he called Scientology a weird cult.

Stopped clocks...

[Gritty]

Morford is one of the most religious people out there. He idolizes his own sin fervently and reverently and is an evangelist for it.

One can only imagine the personal torment he must be going through daily within his own heart!

[Tuscaloosa Goldfinch]

Hyperzealous, evangelical, white, borderline fanatical religious people who apparently don't see a lot of sunlight and never read books and believe everything their homophobic intolerant Bible-spouting evangelical pastor and maybe Ann Coulter say, even more particularly.

Bigot. She left out inbred, southern, and confederate flag waving. Must have been a slip.

[RichInOC]

...Satan himself is at the door, carrying nothing but a whip and a sinister grin and a big bottle of Astroglide.

...but enough about Mark's Halloween after-party.

Or imprisoning...members of that weird cult Tom Cruise and John Travolta are into.

They were at Mark's after-party too?

[Thommas]

People are terrified...

I prefer the cognomen Homoloathic to that of Homophobic. I believe homophobia is what you get in prison after your first week of gang rape.

[COURAGE]

Luke 11:45-52

One of the lawyers answered him, "Teacher, in saying this you insult us also."

He said, "Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won't even lift one finger to help carry those burdens. Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs. Therefore also the wisdom of God said, 'I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute, that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation; from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.' Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation. Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn't enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered."

I'm volunteering to be a painful wart!!!

[Scenic Sounds]

I'm volunteering to be a painful wart!!!

LOL. And you got a brand new tagline to boot!

This Morford guy does have an interesting style, though.

yep, this cements my belief as a libertarian that the state has no business in the institution of marriage.

No tax credits for married couples. Maybe tax credits for dependants. I am not a tax expert (get rid of the income tax, IMHO).

If your employer, and the private companies that they use for medical and dental and life insurance want to cover your same sex live-in partner, that's great! If not, don't bitch about it, get a new job. Privacy and free-market economics at work.

But any free man or woman must find it morally reprehensable that the State should have any involvement in something that is purely a RELIGIOUS matter. If your Unitarian church wants to marry you to a gay man, go for it. That's between you and your God, and it has no bearing on me or the State.

I'm working on making Taglinus Freerepulicus 27!
I think Jigsaw will like this one! Thanks for the idea.
