Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse is the founder and president of the Ruth Institute, which describes itself as "a project of the National Organization for Marriage." On its site, the group describes its mission statement as "to promote life-long married love to college students by creating an intellectual and social climate favorable to marriage."
Becky Yeh of right-wing American Family News Network's OneNewsNow, a product of the American Family Association, writes that Morse says "the rainbow is a sign of God's covenant with man." Morse told ONN: "Proposition 8 was passed by a great grassroots coalition that included people from all across the religious traditions, and also people of every race and color. We are the real rainbow coalition. The gay lobby does not own the rainbow."
Morse continued: "We can't simply let that go by. Families put rainbows in their children's nurseries. Little Christian preschools will have rainbows...Noah's Ark and all the animals.... Those are great Christian symbols, great Jewish symbols." She also described how she wore a rainbow scarf to the Prop 8 hearings to show that anti-gay marriage activists still own the symbol.
I understand that very soon these lovely people are going to try to take the phrase "human being" away from the LGBT community as well, citing the fact that most anti-gay crusaders can generally be described as such (most of the time, and in a strictly genetic sense) and that this really pisses them off having to share a genus and species with homosexuals.
This will be followed up by the Campaign To Stop Those Who Must Not Be Named From Breathing Our Air.
It's all about the right to obliterate people you don't agree with from existing because they offend you, you see.

ReplyDeleteAs opposed to liberal Democrats who are trying to take the phrase "human being" and rights away from all the Americans since they are to be considered as a piece of commerce to be regulated, controlled, exploited, and told what to do by the ruling class; you know, a serf, the real definition of a serf, contrary to the fake, Marxist definition in another post.
It would really help if you and other liberals had an actual understanding of Christianity and what it says about homosexuality (love the sinner, hate the sin; and as compared to Islam and homosexuality, which says behead the homosexual) before putting out garbage like this.
No offense Steve, but your entire argument that you have no problem with gays, you just think their fundamental sexuality, relationships, and their idea of basic human love is wrong and must be corrected, aka they "How dare you imply I'm a bigot while I justify the nuanced gradations of my bigotry" argument, is total and complete fail.
ReplyDeleteAnd as for your idiotic "Dems see people only as units of commerce so how dare you" junk, stick around later this afternoon, I've got another Commerce Clause post coming.
Have a nice day.
I see: my supposed anti-homosexual bigotry, bad; your real anti-Christian bigotry, good. I understand; it's easier for you to falsely demonize Christians than it is to debate.

No, that would be people like you.

I'm sure it will have all the same "insight" into the Constitution and the Commerce Clause that you have shown already. That is, none but what the ruling class tells you to say.
ladies and gentlemen: steveAR bringin' the unintentional comedy! he'll be all week. unfortunately.
ReplyDeletethat should say [he'll be here all week]. damn this "no edit for unregistered comments" bullshit!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, there's no edit for registered comments, either.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little irritating.
