You decide which are the bad quotes and which are the good quotes:
I love and respect that individual more than anything, and I would give my life for that individual," the evangelist says. "But I do not tolerate that person's alcoholism. I will not be around that person when they drink, nor do I allow my children to be around that person. Does that mean I don't love or respect them? Absolutely not. The same principle applies to loving homosexuals but refusing to be tolerant of homosexual sin, Bennett contends. He says "tolerate" is a very strong word in today's culture, and tolerance of homosexuality is something that is being forced upon Americans and forced upon their children. - Stephen Bennet (a "former homosexual" now a Christian musician and evangelist, comparing alcoholism to homosexuality) via The Agape Press
Editor's note: the program doesn't even mention that these are lesbians, and the context is completely non-sexual. They're just two women who make syrup who happen to be lesbians, a fact that is not even mentioned in the program. It would seem the Conservative Activists are so obsessed with sex that they cannot comprehend two lesbians in a non-sexual context; the sole reason they're offended by this episode is that they happen to know that these women are lesbians. They're simply offended by reality. They're offended simply by the appearance of lesbians on television, almost as though they believe that lesbians do not exist and as such have no place on TV or that the mere presense of lesbians on television is some unimaginable horror.
So here's a clue for the Conservative Activists: there are lesbians, everywhere. Some of them even make syrup. And here's another clue: the kids who watch this show on PBS have no idea what a lesbian is; most likely, they'll just think these women are friends who make syrup. It's only because you're sexually obsessed that you insist upon applying a sexual context to two women making syrup. You should be ashamed of yourselves. - via Morons.org
- Leave Buster Behind. What's today's word, class? Priorities. The new Secretary of Education's first act was to condemn a cartoon. Let's not worry about the achievement gap. Let's not worry about rising tuition. Let's not even worry about investigating the Education Department for paying commentators to promote its policies… No, in her first act, Secretary Spellings decided to take on Buster the Bunny—an animated character who happens to make friends with a little girl named Emma, whose parents are lesbians. -Earl Hadley (Progressive News)
- It's amazing how skillfully the homosexual activists twist our language! Words have lost their meanings and just become propaganda tools, playing on people's innocence, emotions, or kneejerk desires to be "with it". Radical is not radical. Abnormal is normal. The unusual is just "everyday" stuff. They well know how powerful AND RADICAL such visual images are to little children--who know in their guts that having two mommies or two daddies is WEIRD! Says the Globe: "[T]he most incendiary thing about the half-hour ... may be its nonchalance." EXACTLY! What it's conveying to the little children is that there's absolutely nothing out of the ordinary about two mommies. The homosexual radicals also know that their propaganda with the older, hostage children in the high schools over the past decade has worked amazingly well. (Where do you think all the support in the polls for "gay marriage" comes from?) Now they want to get the kids de-sensitized at an even earlier age. -via MassResistance Blog
