John Adams would first take issue with the stupid taxes in MA.

One of the best passages in Stephen Moore's Our Oldest Enemy was that John Adams was familiar with the French philosophes and he was not impressed.

LOL!

Gay activists are preparing to target the Mr. Heterosexual Massachusetts contest, scheduled for next month at Mechanics Hall, as a hate-filled event that will perpetuate discrimination against gays and lesbians.

So are hetero cross-dressers allowed to compete in the Miss Gay America pageant?

"...in direct contrast to scientific findings that sexual identity is wired into the genes."

Oh yeah? Talk about BS! There have been a lot of researchers TRYING to prove this, but they can't seem to get the data to cooperate! If they ever do come up with a scientific explanation, I believe its significance will be like innate temperament; that is, some people have a tendency to violence, etc. In other words, something that can be controlled and changed. Just as it commonly was before the APA decided (in its own wisdom) to cease calling homosexuality a mental disorder in the early 1970s.

"Because you're gay and can tell when other guys are gay"

That was an excellent part of the movie!

Some people have too much time on their hands.

Rev. Crouse maintains that all people are born heterosexual and that the gay lifestyle is a choice that can be reversed, in direct contrast to scientific findings that sexual identity is wired into the genes.

What "scientific findings" are these? I was not aware of any scientifically identifiable genetic link to homosexuality. Is there some actual verifiable data out there on this subject, or is this just more hand-waving, pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo?

“This is another form of rape for females,” she said.

Then gay rallies are another form of rape for boys.

"...Wayne Bates of Boylston, a gay activist who has criticized the Tantasqua Regional High School for allowing..."

Bates is a heterophobe.

A bunch of NRA gals should show up for support.

“This is another form of rape for females,” she said.

This woman obviously doesn't know or hasn't been a rape victim - to compare this event being held in a hall where a women's conference was held to being raped is ludicrous!

Did I see that wagglebee was running the list for LJ for a while?

“This is another form of rape for females,”

LOL!

Morons

Sadly, the term "morons" is woefully insufficient to describe the full, SATANICAL-brain-wash&wax that these "people" have submitted themselves to.

[ExcursionGuy84]

Bates is a heterophobe.

THAT'S IT!!!

ManoManoManoMan, verity, You're the next "Lt. General Russell Honore" of COnservative catch-phrases/buzzwords.

Keep it Up!

Page 1 of the homosexual lobby, scream "hate".

They learned this technique from black, feminist, and Hispanic militants. These militants and their 1960s New Left counterparts in turn learned the technique from their Old Left predecessors, who would accuse people of being fascist or reactionary if they were even slightly to the right of Harry Truman or Adlai Stevenson.

What a screeching ninny!

"...please do us a favor and cover the portraits of Lucy Stone, Abby Kelley Foster, Dorothea Lynde Dix and Clara Barton in black shrouds so they do not have to symbolically see or hear the words they fought their entire lives against...”

How about if they just symbolically shroud the pictures so they don't have to symbolically see or hear? SHEESH!!!

"in direct contrast to scientific findings that sexual identity is wired into the genes"

The opposite of this sentence is true. We have completed mapping the human genome and found no gay gene.
Homosexuality is a choice or a mental illness but it is not genetic.
