And the problem with this is ???????????????
No explanation of this is going to convince a die-hard Obama voter that this church's programs are OK. No explanation is needed for anyone already inclined to vote McCain-Palin. What this is, is an attempt to sway the mushy middle by showing Gov. Palin's membership in an 'intolerant' church, and by extension, to show that she would impose that intolerance on American society.
The simple answer here is: For those who are questioning their sexual orientation, and who want to 'choose' the heterosexual side, this program is offered voluntarily. You gotta make the last-minute swing voters (who really don't care a fig about ideology) comfortable when they go into the voting booth.
