I had a really tough time watching the debate last night. I finally had to turn it off. I just could not take all the hypocrisy and downright idiocy , especially from the god-bothering wing of candidates. Those clowns are constantly scare-mongering about Sharia law seeping into our legal system, but cannot see the irony of their own views on our legal system. It is scary how many of them would be just fine with absolutely no separation of Church and State and the country run as a strict Christian theocracy and one of them as Supreme Leader.
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”.
