There are gay people who aren’t pushing a public gay agenda.

It will hurt the fight against the gay agenda if we don’t distinguish between our disdain for special treatment of gays, and gays themselves.

The left wants to say that our argument against gay marriage is because we hate gay people. Unfortunately, that is true for a few people, but we need to make it clear that’s not what drives conservatives.

We don’t need to make anything clear other than “homosexual acting out” will not be tolerated at CPAC or Republican party events, or by members of Congress.

Leftists will hate conservatives with rabin, unreasoning slavish hatred no matter what conservatives say or do. We’d have to totally reject every conservative principle and join their ranks to please them.

So sucking up to them saying “we really like ‘gays’ - we just don’t want the homosexual agenda” will do nothing. Nothing.

So Charles, how do we as Christians, that is you and I, handle the fact that God calls Homosexuality an Abomination and we are commanded to rebuke sin?
