I wonder what Farrakhan’s views on gay marriage are?
Just curious . . .
His views on gays are the same as Iran's.
Minister Louis Farrakhan recently responded to President Obama’s endorsement of gay marriage calling him “the first president that sanctioned what the scriptures forbid,” according to a video posted by the Nation of Islam’s “official” news source, Finalcall.com.
During an address at the California Convention Center on Sunday, the Nation of Islam leader ridiculed the media for its portrayal of Obama after the announcement, and chastised politicians and clergy for hypocritically supporting gay marriage despite the fact that the Bible forbids it.

C’mon now,don’t confuse things!This is ALL about securing the BLACK VOTE(nothing to do with”VALUES”)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just curious . . .
That's a very perceptive question, and one most people don't ask themselves. We are conditioned to jump from one "angle" to another; ie, from fighting the "gays" to fighting the moslems; from fighting the moslems to fighting the secular humanists; from fighting the secular humanists to fighting angry Blacks (who worship as if they were right wing snake-handling hillbillies but who don't vote that way).
I learned from a lifetime of watching professional wrestling (the old timey kind, not the kind we have now) that the marks aren't supposed to think about the contradictions too much. They're supposed to go from booing one heel to booing another, whether the heel is an evil foreigner or the local bully.
Farrakhan may claim to be against "gay marriage." I believe he delivered a speech once blaming homosexuality on "Hollywood Jews." I believe he also claims to be against abortion. BUT--he always endorses, works with, and campaigns for the Black Left. And yes, he uses those very words. He supports the Black Left, all the while claiming to disagree with the Left's social positions.
My personal conclusion: the man is a fraud. Also, according to some FReepers the entire NOI is a fraud. We all know it's not really islamic at all, but some FReepers claim that it doesn't believe in G-d at all; that it claims the G-d that exists outside oneself is a creation of the white man but the "real 'gxd'" is within oneself.
I can't imagine a more mixed up movement.
