Jesse Morrell — a 25-year-old evangelist preacher from Cheshire, Conn., who said he did three stints at the juvenile detention center on Whalley Avenue for selling drugs — says he knows where most Yale students are headed: hell.

I seethe NOT because my son is gay. I seethe because he lives in a country in which some elected officials find it politically advantageous to deny him dignity, basic rights, and protections. I seethe because there are people who preach hatred and discrimination towards gays yet claim to be "good" and "loving" Christians. I seethe because there are groups who claim to be "advocates" for the family but who work to do great harm to any family that doesn’t fit their narrow template for “normal”.

I've seen these types of guys all over the Southeast since I was in college. The one at my institution actually had his barefoot (literally) wife and kids with him, dressed in shabby, dirty clothing. I was a real shame - I've always felt bad for that woman and their kids. Students at the institution where I currently work frequently get riled up the guy who visits here, but I prefer to not give him any attention. Engaging just fuels the fire. Perhaps that has caused me to miss out on the latest list of hell-bound people: Obama voters! That is a new one to me! I noticed that Republicans and conservatives were not listed on the board - surely the latest news would put at least SOME of themon there. ;) It makes you really wonder if this particular guy is sincere because really good haters like Phelps send EVERYONE to hell.
