Hitler's closest associates were homosexual perverts like Ernst Rohm. Yoffie is rewriting history - a century ago Reform Judaism would have been against homosexuality. Their stand contradicts the Torah and the teachings of God.

What does that have to do with the rabbi invoking the first use of Hitler rule e.g. he invoked that his opponent is either Hitler or the Nazis in his argument first and that proves that he lost the argument?

"a century ago Reform Judaism would have been against homosexuality."

I don't think you have to go back a century, less than 20 years should do it. Reform Judaism until quite recently opposed gay "marriage" because the Torah refers to homosexuality as an abomination more than once. I forget how many times exactly, but it was enough that the top rabbis didn't think they could ignore it. Anyhow, in very recent years, they seem to have somehow decided that they could ignore those passages after all. Te justification they came up with is probably available on the Reform Judaism website.
