Linda Hoos, a staff attorney for the Anti-Defamation League, called the board's 3-2 decision an “abomination.” She said even though her group was scheduled to participate, she was going to urge members to stay away. The ADL is known for fighting anti-Semitism.

You're KIDDING me, right? She actually said, "abomination?"

You would think a Jew worth her salt would see the irony in using the word "abomination" in referring to the exclusion of homosexuals to this event. But, apparently she doesn't, and thus, she's not. Pity.

Yes. She did. I kinda chuckled because these "victims" of this abomination were so heavily dramatic. It's not a funny subject of course, but this tolerance issue has no business being catered to one group of people.

The scary thing is this....it won't be long until these forums, conferences, seminars, convocations, and whatever else you want to call them WILL NO LONGER BE VOLUNTARY! These are some heavy political hitters coming into our town to push what they believe to be right. Lucky for us (who won't be forced into submission)we are supported by more and more Civil Rights Attorneys, Pro-Family groups, and I believe that facts AND TRUTHS will win out. Passion and hysteria has become so unbelievable. These are OUR children. We raise our children to be tolerant and kind without their help. I resent these groups insisting that we are the "haters" and that only they can teach our children how to treat others. This kind of furor on their part will not be tolerated anymore!

They will not even address the facts about recovered, recovering, ex-homosexuals. They are terrified of what the ex-homosexuals have to say. They're the intolerants!
