Hmmm. I can’t figure out if that title is an insult to the atheists or the gays.

How could you possibly offend a homosexual man?

I mean, think about it............

It’s the whole garbage of identity politics. All these groups (now the atheists) feel this fuzzy solidarity with the Black Civil Rights movement. Now, if I were black I’d be kind of insulted. Atheists, gays and many others have never had too endure Jim Crow, lynchings, cross burnings, and other forms of violent wholesale discrimination. Most gay people are not outrageously flamboyant. One might surmise that so-and-so might be gay or lesbian, but in this day and age the Oprahfication of society demands that one publicly states everything. WHY? Don’t ask, don’t tell-—what evr happened to that one? Atheists are even less in a position than gays to get on a bandwagon. Do atheists have lisps, go ga-ga over Garland, Ross, and Streisand or any other stereotype that may be applied to gay people. I don’t think so. It’s all about the need to feel special.
