GAY PATRIOT ON THE RICK WARREN THING.

Not all "gay" people are screaming, hysterical drama queens. No really. Disregard all that prop 8 news coverage and the fact that you never hear a rational voice from that camp in the MSM. There really ARE some, like here. From an article by Daniel Blatt for Pajamas Media:

...they don’t just see Warren as offering a different perspective on a controversial issue. They believe his position on that issue defines him a hate-monger who harbors “an anti-gay agenda.”

By so defining Warren, they paint gay marriage opponents with a broad brush, assuming that anyone who opposes same-sex marriage does so out of animosity toward gay people.

Warren, however, has made clear that he opposes same-sex marriage not because he hates gay people, but because of the longstanding definition of this ancient institution: “For 5,000 years, every single culture, every single religion has defined marriage has defined marriage as a man and a woman, not just Christianity, [but also] Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism.”

And while Warren’s opposition to gay marriage has earned him the ire of angry gay activists, his support of certain “partnership benefits” for same-sex couples has upset some social conservatives. Warren’s record on gay issues may not be perfect, but he is anything but a hater.

.....

To be sure, had Warren expressed his support of Proposition 8 in the hateful tones of some of the proposition’s proponents, these activists would have a point.

But, in coming out against gay marriage, Warren didn’t attack gay people. He merely expressed his belief that gender difference was a defining aspect of the institution.

Given the civil nature with which Warren has expressed this view, activists’ opposition to the president-elect’s choice marks them the more intolerant party in this controversy.

Yet another instance of intolerance and hatred coming from the so called "oppressed" within the party of hate and delusion.
