I Can't Get Over It



I already posted about this issue, but this video, Transforming Uganda, from Bruce Wilson, is essential viewing.

To say his shit is crazy and these people need mental help, just doesn't quite cover it. I am unsure how these people can and should be confronted. You can't use reason. You can't directly confront them because they are quick to play the persecution card. Ignoring them is, as we can see, dangerous. All efforts must be made to not make them martyrs.

Totally. "Crazy" sells them way too short though. What really scares me is how massive and organized and focused their movement appears to be. A global, integrated, long term strategy? Holy shit.

And well funded. Where is the money coming from?

I think you can't fight this by attacking the folks who are perpetrating it. You fight it by humanizing gay folks, and by talking about the values we uphold: compassion, sensitivity, truth...

Good point, John. Can't stoop to their level. Still, it's depressing to observe the other side's power and reach.
