What Trisha said.

The Mormons poured a fortune into defeating the Equal Rights Amendment, and just lately Proposition 8 in California. They are absolutely sure that if women and the gay people have the same rights as straight (white) men, anarchy will reign and things so horrible they can only be hinted at will happen.

I received one of their anti-ERA postcards years ago, it contained nothing of substance, but was all about how ERA was contrary to the Will of God and The Brethren. Pompous asshats.

What am I missing? It says he is a “CWA Spokesman.” CWA – the union or is it an acronym for something local?

Austintx, as a fallen away and returned catholic who is probably going to h-e-double hockey sticks anyway because I don’t follow the church’s teachings to the letter, the link to the Minnesota diocese does not surprise me. After Bishops refusing to give communion to pro-choice catholic politicians and brou ha ha over Obama speaking at Notre Dame, I can’t say anything does anymore. But a few years ago, I was at Christmas mass and the priest was given his homily about what would happen if Jesus would born now. He would not be hanging out with the modern day pharisees but would be ministering to the modern day lepers and tax collecters and he would do so without judgement but with lover. He was not calling gays and others lepers per se, he was comparing the way society then and now treated those who were different from them. The catholic church is not William Donahue of the Catholic League of the Five catholic justices on the Supreme Court who are all conservative like Mel Gibson, but unfortunately, they are the ones who get the press.

Maybe someone from the LGBT movement should challenge Prevo to a scientific evaluation of his sexuality (like KO withHannity re waterboarding – still no reply from lil chicken).

Hook him up to monitor his reactions to gay/hetero erotica, now wouldn’t that be interesting – bet he would be about as keen as Hannity was to get ‘sprinkled’ with water.

I am really tired of these religious groups getting involved with politics. Why are they still getting tax exempt status? This needs to change.

You preach politics…you start paying taxes.

If anybody has documented, or documentable (beyond the examples in this blog) of the Rev. engaging in blatant political activity, I would appreciate your emailing them to me.

I’m preparing an IRS complaint.

Thanks.
