Video: California pastor says he'll punch, 'go Old Testament' on gay-marrying clergy
Pastor Matt Brown of Riverside, California's Sandals Church won't go to gay weddings. For one, he doesn't approve of the union. But more than even that, he's pretty sure he will punch out or "go Old Testament" on the pro-gay person of faith who marries the couple:
(*Violent vows begin around 1:38)
As Jesus would, obviously.






Bryan Fischer: All gays are 'perverse' like Anthony Weiner
The American Family Association senior spokesman continues to work out his bizarre obsessions on a public stage:
Oh, no, no, no, no—you all are not going to pin these regularly repeating heterosexual sex scandals on us! David Vitter? Mark Sanford? Christopher Lee? John Edwards? Spitzer? Weiner? Even Larry Craig? Those are scenes from "traditional marriages," buddy!

GLAAD: If you can't beat 'em, call 'em 'cheaters'
Gay and abruptly abandon your family? You had Michael Brown at 'gay'
Eric Myers abandoned his family. He just left one day and stayed gone for sixteen years, leading everyone—his wife, his parents, his two young kids, etc.—to presume he had died.
Eric Myers also happens to be gay. While on his disappearing act, he met and fell in love with a man. And while that is true and a part of his story, the sexuality part is incidental to what Myers himself admits was "the most selfish thing in the world." His awful act was abandoning his wife and two young girls withou...
Come for 'The Homosexual War,' stay for the gay icon's theme park
Right now, as we speak, Tony Perkins and fellow evangelicals are getting together in Sevierville, TN, for what they call the Answers in Genesis Megaconference. At said conference, they enjoy sessions with "charming" titles like this one:
[Schedule]
Ooh, a war. Sounds militant. Should I be scared? Lock my doors? Locate my camo tank top? Let me know, "values voters."
But declarations of war against my family aside, I want to now turn attention to the activities that these very same conference orga...
NOM's new mission: Dosing us with Vitamin C, apparently
You guys, it seems we've been wrong about NOM. Their real goal is to "orangize" America:
(NOM fundraising page)
[SOURCE]
I can totally get behind this agenda! Oranges are packed with Vitamin C, which comes with a lot of health benefits. Plus they taste darn good! In fact, as a big juicer myself, I will totally help NOM on this campaign to "orangize" our nation if it is, in fact, their new mission.
I mean, it does make sense that they'd need a new (and this time healthy) agenda. They have lost the...
'Family values' group goes after 6-year-old
The Concerned Women For America are all about protecting children. That is, until they come across a child who is transgender, in which case they will splash that child onto their front page, misgender the kid, and then attack her life as if it's all playing out as some sort of political agenda rather than as an existence:
In the related text, CWA's Janice Shaw Crouse—who, by the way, once insinuated that progressives are creating a new kind of "Hitler Youth"—suggest...
It's adorable when anti-LGBT commentators think they've caught us in something
David Smith, the exceedingly anti-LGBT head of the viciously anti-LGBT Illinois Family Institute, is trying to trip up his state's marriage bill by acting as if people on our side's support for basic nondiscrimination protections is some sort of "proof" that we have an agenda extending beyond marriage itself. He writes:
If the concern of homosexual activists were simply about gaining “marriage equality” as they claim, why would proponents oppose legal protections for all people of faith? Why w...
