Everyone is entitled to their religious beliefs. But thank God we live in a nation where no religion should now, or ever, dictate our laws.

The reason why Michael Brown's arguments will ultimately fail, is that all families have gay members. Parents are supporting their gay children, because they know that being gay is not a choice, this is who they are, and they deserve a life of equality and dignity as much as their straight children. Just look at VP Cheney. He wants Mary's family (his gay daughter) to have every right and benefit as his heterosexual daughter's family. Virginia recently denied a man a judgeship, for the sole reason that he is gay. All bigotry is wrong.

If a chaplain wants to perform a same-sex ceremony, the Republicans want to prohibit him or her from doing this. Republicans are the party that is trying to limit freedom of religion.

I believe in slavery because the Bible says it is fine. Does that make me a hater of Blacks or Jews? No, it just makes me a good Christian. Stop attacking my religion!

Oh sure, Bozell. No way is Pat Buchanan an anti-Semite: After Cardinal O'Connor criticized anti-Semitism during the controversy over construction of a convent near Auschwitz, Buchanan wrote: "If U.S. Jewry takes the clucking appeasement of the Catholic cardinalate as indicative of our submission, it is mistaken. When Cardinal O'Connor of New York seeks to soothe the always irate Elie Wiesel by reassuring him 'there are many Catholics who are anti-Semitic'...he speaks for himself. Be not afraid, Your Eminence; just step aside, there are bishops and priests ready to assume the role of defender of the faith." (New Republic, 10/22/90)

It's ironic that on this website, which has encouraged so much hatred against gay Americans like Mary Cheney (the VP's daughter), is so outraged by Dan Savage.

Nothing Bozell highlighted from gay characters is any different than the straight characters' situations on TV since the beginning of television. How great that gay youth can see that they are not alone and they are not freaks, an awful message that has lead to far too much hatred and pain. Stop the attacks on Richard and Lynn Cheney's daughter, and Randall Terry's son, and Phylis Schafly's son, and the children of countless other conservative, Christian parents who happen to have gay children.

Over 90% of the world's AIDS cases were transmitted through heterosexual intercourse (that is sex between a man and a woman).

Gays are repulsive, perverted...and now, lunatics. No "hatred" here! The thing is, gays are also your son, or daughter, or cousin, or aunt. They are in your family. Why would you want to make life hard for your own grandchild?

I guess, according to Glick, israel should just complete the process of taking over the West Bank. But, as a civilized and just nation, it also must give all the residents of the West Bank citizenship and the vote. Unfortunately, this one state solution will mean the end of Jews holding the reigns of power in Israel, but hey, an Arab Prime Minister of Israel is just the endpoint of Glick's treatise.
