Newspaper columnist Gil Smart reacts to Newsweek's controversial article on gay marriage, and proffers his own theory on why there's such strong opposition to it.

1. Excellent points made in the video.
It's a sad day...until we change it.

Some of the most wonderful people I have known in my lifetime have been gay persons. Why the fear? Are you afraid they are going to come and get YOU? Forget it! They don't want YOU!

I don't buy any of this bull shit that the Bible says jack shit about gays...especially that they are evil and should be pushed away from society. Simple, clear bull shit, and I think his point about history having nut cases using the Bible to support slavery are good examples. WHERE??

One day, soon I hope, the gay community will NOT be discriminated against as they are today. Soon, I hope!

3. Good 'Ol Sanctioned Hatred offered Guilt-Free fills the "po' Box" at the Church
as this speaker says, the minority groups have changed through the years, but the message has remained the same. For Religion to function profitably as a "business" they have to have a "product" that folks want. "Hate" that is easy on the conscience is without a doubt a stellar box-office HIT with the pious. The gift that keeps on giving, from generation to generation and from minority group to minority group.
