Hypocrites

When you assume Christians are the only good people, bad things start to happen.

The conservative Ohio state lawmaker was known for his anti-LGBTQ stances.

A parent has come forward with new accusations against the anti-gay pastor who was outed on Grindr, and says the pastor told her suicidal gay son he might as well commit suicide.

Rev. Matthew Makela resigned as pastor of St. John’s Lutheran Church just one day before Queerty posted screenshots and text messages of sexually explicit conversations between the pastor and other men.

John Diehl, who once championed the Religious Right’s anti-gay agenda in the state House, and in turn praised by conservative groups for his “moral leadership,” resigned Thursday amid a sexting scandal with a female legislative intern.

Missouri House Speaker, Republican John Diehl, who is married, has championed the Religious Right’s anti-gay agenda in the state house, and has in turn been praised by state conservative groups for his “moral leadership.”

The religious right wing clearly have no clue what bullying is really all about. A speaker, known for his “straight”, sometimes “salty”, talk, at a public forum, is not bullying you when he says your religious beliefs are bullshit. He doesn’t have you cornered against a locker, trapped behind the auto shop building, or head down in the commode in the bathroom stall. He isn’t threatening you with physical harm, not even the promised threat of “getting you later” after school. The right wing thinks all these kind of interactions are not bullying, especially if religiously motivated, but a speaker at high school assembly, who points out logical and factual inconsistencies in the way you behave is the bully and a hypocrite? Bullshit.

The National Organization for Marriage (NOM) is doing exactly what it accused gay activists of doing: buying votes. In New Hampshire, the organization has pledged $250,000 to “reward” politicians who “stand up for restoring traditional marriage.”

Anyone who thinks that the Family Research Council is either a Christian or “pro-family” group obviously has not done their homework — just last week, FRC anointed Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) a pro-family leader — in spite of the fact that he allegedly owes over $100,000 in child support.

Joe Walsh: Perhaps it would be a good idea to pay your damn child support before you start creating caste systems against loving families simply because they may contain parents of the same-sex.
