We've finally found WorldNetDaily's line; far-right outlet yanks 'wage war to restore a Christian America' post
Last week, I showed you the "exclusive commentary" in which WND columnist David Lane told his fellows to "wage war" against people like you and me. Reminder:
Where are the champions of Christ to save the nation from the pagan onslaught imposing homosexual marriage, homosexual scouts, 60 million babies done to death by abortion and red ink as far as the eye can see on America? Who will wage war for the Soul of America and trust the living God to deliver the pagan gods into our hands and restore...
And now they're writing our parents telling them they 'broke' us
Sharon Kass, a fringe anti-gay activist who often bombards the inboxes of gay activists (including me), has sent an unsolicited email to the father of eleven-year-old gay kid Marcel Neergard. In said missive, Kass tells the dad, with whom she has no prior relationship or personal insight, that he and his wife "caused" young Marcel's homosexuality. Kass then directs the father to send his son to reparative therapy, claiming that "the ex-gay truth will prevail in this country."
Truth Wins Out ha...

Concerned Women For America launches vow '2 stand'; we thank them for giving us the driver's seat
With young people polling showing a direct (and growing) repudiation of the religious right's long-held agenda, legacy groups like Focus on the Family and Concerned Women For America have been thinking up ways to stop the bleeding. This is CWA's new attempt to recruit young'uns to their anti-LGBT agenda:
Sounds tiring.
So that's clear.
He has reached his conclusion, folks:
Massachusetts, please destroy yourself accordingly. You are doing far too well.

Linda Harvey backs a 'kind and civil' form of anti-LGBT teaching
Speaking about federal measures that would help prevent bullying targeted at LGBT students, MIssion America's Linda Harvey says the following:
"Our children all deserve kindness and civility, and that can happen even if they are learning homosexuality is wrong. And they're trying to combine the two and say that they are the same thing." [SOURCE]
Riiiiight, Linda. "Johnny, your two mommies are immoral and hellhound," says the smiling public school teacher before wooing little Johnny's affections...

On Friday of last week, I told you about Apostle Debra Gaines, her belief that gays are "not normal," and her weekend march in Chicago. Here's what that ended up looking like:
