Comments on: Email of the Day http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2012/04/30/43896 News, analysis and fact-checking of anti-gay rhetoric Sat, 25 May 2013 02:47:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Charles http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2012/04/30/43896/comment-page-1#comment-122471 Charles Tue, 01 May 2012 15:46:19 +0000 http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/?p=43896#comment-122471 I guess that this man was kicked out of the anti-gay group because he was doing more harm than good to their cause. Er, somewhat like what Dan Savage did last week at an anti-bullying conference when it it was his time for speaking up he went into a vulgar rant against Christians. Mr. Savage did our cause no good that day. And, I have not seen Box Turtle criticize Mr. Savage, yet, for his behavior.

He seems to have all the credentials that they look for. I’m surprised that MSNBC and CNN don’t have him on regularly as a spokesperson to “balance” out any pro-gay guest they may have.

Well, until he was distracted by the Catholics, Baptists, Calvinists, Mennonites, the Joooos and of course all the other Christian sects that have sprung up since the 16th century. Then there's that seductive tool of the Devil that casts souls into the fiery pit of Hades, better known to us as "freedom of religion" and "freedom of speech". Be careful when you take on the mantle of historical figures, Mikey, because when you do you invite examination into ALL of their beliefs. “I started my ministry understanding that were Martin Luther here today he would fight the baby killers and the sodomites.”

Martin Luther was a very vocal anti-Semite. Martin Luther contributed some great things to Christianity, but he had some serious moral failings as well. “that were Martin Luther here today he would” fight against the civil rights of Jews too.

He'll discredit everything he touches, and the people of Maine already mistrust him, so every time he opens his mouth he'll just damage his own cause. Sounds like a good thing that Heath is back.
