It sounds like the beauty pageant business has been taken over by gay people.

Given that gay people make up about 2% of the population, it seems like straight people have been discriminated against here, with so many gays involved in the judging.

Of course, there was a time when people were asked about their personal beliefs, and giving the truthful answer meant being torn apart by lions. It took real courage to stand by your convictions.

We should not be surprised that we can still be punished for our beliefs. We have grown soft because for so long our nation was a “Christian nation”, or at least it was not antithetical and opposed to Christian beliefs. However, that time is long gone now.

We have gotten well into a new era, where expressing your truthful beliefs about abortion, gay marriage, extramarital sex, creation, and wanting to obey and act according to the commands of a higher being will get you ostracized, rejected, fired, and maybe even jailed or beaten.

In the name of Tolerance, we have become intolerant of those who hold firm convictions.

Whatever control we had was wilfully surrendered, not lost. If we are being discriminated against, it is our own fault.

We (or at least a majority of us) who call ourselves Christians are guilty of trying not to look judgmental or "insensitive" and gave into, either by action or inaction, the will of the perverts and Leftists who are intent on destroying our society.
