Just as YOU prescribe that I can ignore "discussions" or not, you can ignore threads like this as well. It goes both ways.
But this is getting redundant. There's very little "fact" to this situation:
Warren has been invited to give the invocation and all indications are that it will occur.
The Obama adminstration has posted its plans regarding its GLBT agenda. I'd bet Rick Warren wouldn't agree with a lot of it. But people who pay attention to what Obama's been saying wouldn't expect it to align with Warren on GLBT issues, since Obama has made clear he's in disagreement with Warren.
So, since no one will learn anything more about actual ACTIONS that will affect people's lives until the Obama administration takes over, it's a wait-and-see situation.
In the meantime, the "discussion" seems to have turned into multiple threads hashing the same opinions and speculation over and over. No minds are being changed. Those who expect the Obama administration to fail the GLBT community still think it will happen. Those who somehow think a Warren invocation represents Obama giving the nod to anti-GLBT attitudes still think so.
Those who want to see what the Obama administration actually DOES before deciding whether it's making progress are still of that mind.
It'll be interesting when there's more actual information to discuss.
