Why can't anyone answer the question RightOnline brought up with his comments? It seems to be the crux of the issue. He said homosexuality was an 'abomination' but we should welcome those who practice it as brothers in arms. I'm sincerely asking what other lifestyle would be considered an 'abomination', yet its practitioners celebrated it with parades of pride - and we should welcome those people as commrades in arms. Why can't anyone answer that simple question. Surely homosexuality isn't the only abomination that is seen as a 'blessing' and a 'gift' by some to be cherished with pride.

Whenever I hear of another church or city council embracing homosexuality I wonder where the apologists for beastiality and incest are ?

I do not agree with the "abomination" language. I just think that its gross, personally. But the point is that it is a private matter that should not have any relevance to positions taken by our government. I don't believe that gays should be permitted to serve openly in the military. And I do not think homosexuality should be "taught" in schools.

But otherwise, I do not see how a person's homosexuality has any relevance to the political issues about which conservatives should care. If there is a person who is for limited government, low taxes, economic freedom, strong national defense, etc., and that person happens to be homosexual, why shouldn't I welcome that person as a comrade in the fight to move our country in the right direction? His sexuality shouldn't be an issue.
