I just read this great article about the bible and homosexuality. The Rev. Mel White has really done his homework.

NAACP is Loser of the Week
A recent press release from the NAACP states that: “The NACCP Image Awards honors projects and individuals that promote diversity in the arts in television, recording, literature and motion pictures.” Recent Image Award Winner, Isaiah Washington, was promoting diversity when he called a fellow Grey’s Anatomy castmate a “faggot” and then lied that he said it twice on television?
The NAACP is my Loser of the Week.
Ann Coulter is Loser of the Week
“I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word ‘faggot,’ so I — so kind of an impasse, can’t really talk about Edwards,” Ann Coulter
As long as conservatives continue to support morons like Ann Coulter they have ZERO credibility to intelligent people.
Ann Coulter is my Loser of the Week

Tim Hardaway is Loser of the Week
“You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known. I don’t like gay people and I don’t like to be around gay people, I’m homophobic. I don’t like it. It shouldn’t be in the world or in the United States.’’ Tim Hardaway
Tim Hardaway is our Loser of the Week
Hal
 When I met my partner Mike 11 years ago, I also became friends with a wonderful bear named Hal Hillman. Sadly he passed away in early 2004 due to a heart attack. He had been sick for a while and was waiting for a new kidney. Mike and I miss him terribly. Here is a short slideshow I created of this wonderful, big lug!
Gay Marriage Still Safe In Massachusetts
 Well I can sleep tonight. Massachusetts lawmakers decided to recess the Massachusetts constitutional convention without voting on the proposed amendment to ban gay marriage in the state. It is horrible to think that my marriage and rights could be put up to a popular vote. I have been married for 2 years, how has that hurt anyone else? Why are people so worried about things that don’t affect them. People are so upset with this issue they wish to change state and federal constitutions. Constitutions should grant rights, not take them away. It is unfathomable to think that people would support an amendment that would reverse a freedom given to a certain segment of society. I wonder how the people who signed the initiative petition would feel if a possible amendment were proposed to eliminate freedom of religion! There are so many things we really need to be worried about as a society… gay marriage isn’t one of them.

Doogie Howser is Gay!
It was just announced that Neil Patrick Harris, who played Doogie Howser, M.D. and currently stars in How I Met Your Mother has come out! Bravo to Mr. Harris!
Pastor Ted Haggard and the Evangelical Movement are Losers of the Week
New Life Church’s acting pastor said Friday that the Rev. Ted Haggard, his predecessor now embroiled in a gay-escort scandal, has acknowledged some of the accusations are true.
In an e-mail to congregants, Ross Parsley wrote that the church’s four-member board of overseers had met with Haggard.
“It is important for you to know that he confessed to the overseers that some of the accusations against him are true. He has willingly and humbly submitted to the authority of the board of overseers, and will remain on administrative leave during the course of the investigation,” the e-mail stated.
I am so sick of the insane evangelical movement! These holier than thou types continue to shove their beliefs and judgements in my face about my life. Why does religion get so protected by the government? They have more protections than I do as a gay American. What is even scarier is the people who follow this branch of religion. The followers throw out science and common sense and they send money to their hypocritical leaders, like Ted Haggard. America…wake up! These people are trying to take away our constitutional rights to freedom, while they hide behind their rights to freedom of religion.
Ted Haggard and the evengelical momement are my losers of the week.

Kinda Good News
New Jersey’s Supreme Court, in a 4-3 decision issued Wednesday, has failed to find that the state’s same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry.
But the justices found New Jersey’s 2-year-old domestic-partnership system inadequate, and gave the Legislature 180 days to “enact an appropriate statutory structure” giving same-sex couples rights equivalent to those of married couples. Read More.
