I reject anyone to the extent that they are wrong and embrace anyone to the extent that they are right. Some people are more wrong than others. Some people far more so. Case in point.
By further example, Osama bin Laden condemns homosexuality. Obviously you embrace his position on that count. I assume that you reject him in other matters, however.
Thomas Jefferson was right much more often than he was wrong. He was not right by virtue of Thomas Jefferson in those instances where he was right.

You have yet to articulate what moral code you derive your sense of right and wrong from. You reject the Corpus Juris Civilis of Western Civilization, so you ought to be willing to ID where your code comes from and why it ought to supplant the Great Body of Laws that are our common heritage and the FOUNDATION of our form of government and culture.
