“I think the thing that frustrates me the most is that there have been people who’ve come out today and said, ‘It’s free speech, it’s free speech,’” Aiken continued. “And I would ask them … if the person had said something about interracial marriage, or said that we should put all children with disabilities in institutions, would we still say, ‘Well, that’s free speech, we’re okay with that opinion?’ And I think the answer is no.”
Aiken did, however, say that society has made progress in its acceptance of gays — though total acceptance isn’t likely to happen anytime soon.

Own a Bible, Clay?
Gays have been living their lives as they wish for at least a hundred and fifty years. Ever hear of a “Boston Marriage “ Clay? That was when two women set up house and lived together. Mark Twain was familiar with the phrase. How long has he been dead, Clay? No, Clay, what you unspeakably sick freaks are doing now is attacking me and my Religion. You would cast US as animals. We're gonna' find out how well that works out, Clay. Once your stupid, obsessive, rank predilections were none of my business, Clay and I can't think of anything that would intrest me less than what YOU get up to with your "lovers" but now you want to shove it in every one face draw a line and have everyone take sides. Fine, Clay, your call.
Why should anyone care what this guys says, any more than that nitwit who played Doogie Houser?
Why is talking about what homosexuals do, what defines them as "different" and needing of special protection and advantage, "offensive?"
Believe me, he used the most considerate language possible. The reality of their self-degradation is so much worse than he stated, and so obviously corrosive to the soul that ANY acknowledgement of what they do for pleasure must be censored totally.
Whew! I can sleep well tonight knowing that Clay Aiken has finally spoken is words of wisdom on the Phil Robertson comments.
It’s been tough waiting for Clay weigh in and bless us with his intellect, and finally he has.
Nothing person, but any chance you can shrink that signature image by about 50%?
You sweet on me?
LOL!!!
Merry Christmas ....
But it isn't. Phil's talking about men who have sex with other men, many of whom can change or have changed and no longer do it. Try finding a Black man who is no longer Black. The comparison is ridiculous and beyond insulting,
Oh, the loser has an opinion. Wow!
There is no presumption in the Constitution that gays have a right to marry like a man and a woman. They have legal rights to being partners, inheriting, etc.; but they cry after "marrying" which was a religious ceremony until the govt. found they could extract legal tender from licenses, blood tests, etc.
Homosexuality IS listed as a sin in the Bible, and Bible believers cannot be forced to change their opinions to be PC.
Aiken is comparing apples to peanuts--not even as close as oranges.
It is a RELIGIOUS free speech/free to choose and practice issue.
All this parsing of free speech rights being govt. free not free otherwise is bs. The gays are NOT just after their perceived civil rights, but are after FORCING everyone in the nation to give up their religious rights and beliefs because the gay lobby is RIGHT and everyone else is wrong. They even want to teach homosexuality as normal in the schools, starting with kindergarten. The LGBT and followers are the PC Gestapo and I am tired of them in my face.
vaudine
How can Clay Aiken be gay? He’s too much like Barry Manil,,,oh.
Again, nothing personal but at full size whenever I scan past it scrolling down a thread it looks like a Rorschach test.
I find it amusing when people compare mental illness to ethnic/racial identity. They need help though, not be left to wander around thinking their fecal fascination is “normal”.
Gay is a choice (so they keep telling me), race is not.
Exactly! They can go to hell before I celebrate them.
Clay Aiken is a proud packer? I wouldn’t have guessed.
“...FUCA!...”
He might just like that.
The question I have is when will homosexuals accept non-deviants?
Oh, sugar! Guess schools will have to start having gay celebrations. Like the day AIDS was discovered?
This is lame.
According to scripture, interracial marriage is not a sin.
Whether disabled children are institutionalized or not, is not a sin.
Homosexuality, according to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and the father of Jesus Christ, is a sin. Actually, an abomination.
Thankfully, dealing with it as sin it can and has been overcome. Homosexuals, like any sinners, can be washed clean and born anew - with Christ.
