Rick Warren is like a friendlier version of James Dobson. They have the same views -- they only differ in their approach to spreading hate and prejudice. Warren is especially clever about getting people to agree with him -- he was a major player behind Prop 8 in California, and much of the way it actually passed was through straight up deceit.
b) To be honest, we should let kids be themselves for once.
c) There are a few gay activists that fit the description you give, but there are a LOT more on the other side doing everything they can to disenfranchise gays.
d) &A lot of religions seem to have an axe to grind against gays for some reason. *These people need to learn how to mind their own fucking business (no pun intended).
b) We should also have stronger families in America, but one person can't make that happen.
c) That's true, but there are also a lot of people on the religious right who otherwise wouldn't care one way or the other, but feel like they're having the lifestyle forcibly waggled in their faces by media and their childrens' schools. I don't want to see hetero couples tonguing it on the Seattle sidewalks, let alone two men. Way to foment unneeded opposition.
