I firmly believe that courage should be encouraged.

Recently, HEB spent $300 to support the Gay Pride parade in San Antonio. Take a look at what a Christian radio station in SA has done with it.

HEB is a great partner especially to the gay community in Houston. If you have a minute, please send an email of support to Scott McClelland, President of HEB. Word is that he is being called on the carpet big time from Houston area churches.

I can't believe McManus actually compared a queer-positive donation with supporting terrorism.
The Gays = al-Qaeda?   Really, wtf.

I also can't believe he quoted Leviticus, but then again, I can't believe any Christian quotes Leviticus. First, no Christian I have ever heard of actually follows all of the prohibitions in Leviticus, and if you start picking and choosing some and not others, who's to say which ones God doesn't care about anymore? Second, wasn't part of the whole point of Jesus's life what's in the New Testament, which is supposed to supplant the Old Testament? Does Jesus, you know, the person who supposedy is pretty much the whole point of Christianity in the first place, ever, ever, bash gays? No, I didn't think so. Seems to me, most of these Old Testament Christians aren't very Christian at all... Oh, whoops, how terribly obvious of me to say so ;>
