Snort. If just saying you don’t care about gay marriage one way or the other is so provocative that several FReepers have to come running and say, in effect, “Oooohhh, Dad TOLD us never to talk like that! I’m telling!” - then that is just sad.
Modern conservatism has always been a coalition. Not every person who thinks and votes in a generally conservative way has ever subscribed to all the social/moral issues. It doesn’t hurt my feelings to be declared “not a real conservative” or “useless to the conservative movement” by the hall monitors here, but I think it’s to FR’s detriment if it’s now banning variations of opinion even among different types of conservatives. That’s how echo chambers are built.
"Dad" is watching the thread. Saw his post when I got up this morning. He is serious about keeping the prohomosexual message off of FR.

This is an activist site. It isn't simply a forum. It is where we discuss issues and what to do about them. It is not a forum to debate liberals or their POV.
If you misunderstand FR's mission, read the Mission statement by Jim Robinson
conservative is conservative.
there is no chinese menu conservative.
The mission here is to persuade those on the left that they are wrong, as usual, and we are right, as usual. This site for the most part, minus trolls and paulites, represents the majority of America.
Someone who thinks the homosexual agenda is not a danger to freedom of speech, religion and association either isn’t paying attention and sorely ill-informed, or has moral blinders on.
