BIGOTS: Hatred is their currency

Sexual orientation: Your enduring pattern of romantic or sexual attraction to the opposite sex or same sex.

Gender identity: Your private sense of being male or female.

The vile dogmatic propaganda of anti-gays is sad, so sad. Their talking points are built upon fantasy, exaggeration and self-righteous contempt-filled superiority. They promote hatred, bigotry and mock-honor for Satan while stating they are only serving God’s will.

As to their appeal to the traditions of our father to force third-class treatment on gay citizens: We see traditions of slavery, indentured servants, genocide of American Indians, women as the property of their husband, denial of voting to anyone not them, KKK lynchings and shootings, American born Japanese in World War II concentration camps for being Japanese, traditions of marrying 12- and 14-year-old girl children, and race riots.

Hand picking a sentence out of the Bible to promote xenophobia has been used over and over against all of us.
