Alan Keyes' Daughter Coming Out

(CBS) The 19-year-old daughter of Alan Keyes has a Valentine for the anti-gay rights conservative pundit and frequent Republican candidate.
Maya Marcel-Keyes will be making her first public appearance as a gay activist at a Valentine Day's rally in front of the Maryland State House, says Dan Furmansky, the leader of Equality Maryland, a gay rights group.
Last summer her father, a conservative pundit and frequent Republican candidate, caused a stir during the Republican convention by labeling Vice President Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter a sinner and calling homosexuality "selfish hedonism."
"It was kind of strange that he said it like a hypothetical," she told the Washington Post. "It was really kind of unpleasant."
Marcel-Keyes told the Post her parents have thrown her out of the house, stopped speaking to her and refuse to pay for college because she is gay. She said she loves her parents.
Keyes' Web site says he is against "the homosexual rights agenda, including same-sex marriage."
Marcel-Keyes grew up in Darnestown, Md., attended a conservative Catholic school for girls in McLean, Va., spent a year in the south of India advocating tribal rights, and plans to attend Brown University this fall, according to an Equality Maryland press release.
Furmansky told CBSNews.com that Marcel-Keyes would not be speaking to the media ahead of Monday's rally, and probably not afterward, either.
Bloggers have identified her Web site as
http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=Xmisled0youthX. The author of the blog says it is public and she has nothing to hide.

Condescension when quoting scripture references is always so very impressive. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

I would like you to explain to yourself, without lying if you can, Numbers 25:10-13.
10And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
11Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
13And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.
I'm not sure I see the relevance.

"That's ridiculous."
No, it's the plain truth.

"6) capitalism (by your 4000 year scale)
You're daft. Capitalism -- in one form or another -- has existed since the dawn of time. True, it required an Industrial Revolution to give it its present incarnation, but people have been buying and selling at a profit for eons."
What we call "capitalism" is nothing more than the way people naturally act when nobody has a gun to their heads.
Hey, I've got wheat, and I need milk. Joe has milk, and needs wheat. Maybe we can work something out.
Von Hayek offers some very lucid discussions of this in "Road to Serfdom" and "Fatal Conceit."

You are blind to your idol's feet of clay. Dr. Keyes does not walk on water. In this instance, he played the hypocrite in his labeling and condemning another man's daughter when he kept silent about the mote in his own eye. That is hypocrisy.
To: sinkspur
LOL!!! You're melting down, vet. The brothers in Brea need your moral support over here ...
We Believe....
Brea Congregational Church is a hospitality-based community of faith. We welcome all ... with unconditional acceptance regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or any other basis of exclusion.
It looks like you fit right in ...

It would be hypocrisy not to condemn the selfish hedonistic behavior in all homosexual addicts, not to mention rebuke the foolishness of their enablers.
Their predators are probably beyond redemption.

So then, am I a hypocrite if I say Scott Peterson is a murderer? Because surely I know that other murderers exist.
This whole thing, this whole argument makes no sense.
Keyes could be a hypocrite if he spoke out against the VP's daughter and condoned his own daughters behavior, which he did not. He condemned them both.
I fear the left does not know the meaning of the word hypocrite, as is evidence from their support of UN and other hypocritical institutions.
Hypocrite is saying Ward Churchill has freedom of speech, but anyone on the right does not.
Hypocrite is saying I want to ban smoking for health reasons, but homosexual activity is just dandy.
Dr. Keyes spoke his mind on both of these girls, and was consistent on his approach to both of them. How that is being a hypocrite is beyond my mortal knowledge.
It would take someone like Kerry to explain that "nuance" to me.
To: esoxmagnum
Keyes spoke his mind on both of these girls....Wrong. He did NOT speak of his own daughter's "hedonism". His silence on that is what is so telling.
I've said what I think of both his action and his inaction. I'm through arguing w/you.

How do you know about this group, vet? I've never heard of them. I heard about them on Free Republic. You seem to share their views. I thought you would defend them.
To: Amelia
It's better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness. You would light a single candle and not lift a finger to defend the prey from the predators.
To: af_vet_1981
Just seems strange that a vet's hanging around groups like this.
What other associations do you have that we ought to know about?

He did NOT speak of his own daughter's "hedonism". His silence on that is what is so telling. He cut offer her allowance and stopped financing her "hedonism." And you are doing exactly what ... ?
To: sinkspur
Just seems strange that a vet's hanging around groups like this.I would expect any homosexual activist or enabler to be a liar.
What other associations do you have that we ought to know about?
By the plural you do you mean you are representing a homosexual activist group ?
