> Does this guy live on another planet?
Yes.
The one where Christians don’t read their Bibles and don’t know Jesus.
Liberals think that religion ought to be about politics.
By mainstream churches they must mean the Church of Satan.
From his bio: Wayne Besen is an American gay rights advocate. He is a former spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign and the founder of Truth Wins Out.
Not exactly another planet, but he’s full of beans. He hasn’t yet heard that you cannot be both a Leftwingtard and a Christian.
‘Hundreds of zealots confronted and harassed festival attendees with their arrogant slogan “God Has A Better Way.”’
Zealots? Who’re the zealots? Why must they have “pride” parades? Do we have hetersexual pride parades? Are we “proud” to be hetero? Funny he lambasts these “thumpers” for speaking against them, but not the scum who infest these parades, showing off their disgusting sexual promiscuity in public.
The Left already did that in Congress through "stimuli" and "bailouts." And the rest of us are on the hook.
The Falls Church Press is a far-left weekly run by Nicholas Benton, an avowed gay leftist. His columnists include Helen Thomas, Paul Krugman and assorted weirdos like Bessen (who I believe is the gay issues writer).
Unfortunately, this is the only Falls Church, Va newspaper but it does allow some dissenting letters.
By the way, did you know that Helen Thomas served in the Pelleponesian Wars, along with John Kerry?
I’ve never heard of this Dr. Brown, but from what the author described, he doesn’t seem at all unreasonable.
When are they holding the “Murder Pride” and the “Theft Pride” events? Surely they aren’t only glorifying sexual perversion. I’m guessing we’ll have an “Adultery Pride” parade soon enough.
Seriously, if you’re struggling against your sin, you can be a Christian. If you’re wallowing in it, you’ve already chosen to reject Christ.
Wow,the Catholic church was left out, I’m so disappointed/s
Actually this group headed by Michael Brown waded into the crowd with matching T shirts and banners, engaging the gay crowd with respect and love. There was no bashing or violence or hate.
Gee whiz, they don’t seem to like getting a dose of their own medicine. Maybe if the medicine were passed out to their crowd in the form of a high velocity, Coke bottle sized, suppository they’d understand that they’re not the only ones who can show up at various events and exercise the right of free speech. It’s like all the slugs leaving their trails of slime to and from the courts to get protests at mass murder facilities banned and regulated. They only believe in “free speech” and protest when they’re the ones doing it.
Does that about cover it?
And the UCC is tolerant and speaks the truth.
There is no religious left....Just leftists like Besen trying to confuse naive Christians.
The religious left obviously hasn’t read this passage:<< Ecclesiastes 10:2 >> The heart of the wise inclines to the right, the heart of the fool to the left.
Who does he think the mainstream church is these days? The old mainline denominations, which are who he probably has in mind, are bleeding out like Sonny Corleone.
Besen is a former spokesperson for the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest gay and lesbian advocacy group.
The one in the middle
