The King Edition

by @ 2:06 pm. Filed under Americans For Truth, Ex-gays, Exodus, Gay News, Hate Crimes, Nonviolence, hate speech

As I talk with anti-gay leaders, I am astounded at the violence in their words. Some are so filled with anger, hurt and violence. I wonder how they can get out of bed each morning feeling that weighed down with hate. Their determination to “take down”, “Defend the country from” or “fight the homo agenda” is based on fear, lies, and distortions similar to those distortions used against the Jews in WWII, and blacks during the civil rights error, and gays today.

Some even have full time positions in organizations whose aim is to invoke fear in others about gays. They use statements and distortions that gays are a threat to freedom, gays are after your children, gays are infiltrating the schools, gays are murderers, gays are sinners, gays are diseased, gays are violent. We have heard all these statements before about other groups before us. We need to learn from our past.

Their tactics are violence, and our response must be nonviolence. It is the only way!
