'Porno Pete' LaBarbera is mad at me, bigot will resign from school board, and other Friday midday news briefs

First, I have a confession to make. From time to time when I post something about the religious right, I send what I have written to subject of the post. The goal is to get them try to refute what I have written. I have been very unsuccessful when it comes to refutations, but sometimes, the answers I do receive are very interesting. This morning, I emailed Peter LaBarbera my post about him embracing the lies of the discredited Paul Cameron. He sent the following back to me:

You are one hateful dude, Alvin. If I called you a name like that you'd freak out. What a hypocrite you are. But you are formally invited to come to Chicago to hear Hutch at our banquet Nov 13 (you'll have to lay down $50). You need God's forgiveness and love, but that means leaving your homosexual sin and that awful pride behind. Yes, Jesus Christ can set you free, Alvin, and no, you cannot be a faithful Christian and celebrate sin like you do every day of your life thru that moronic blog. God bless you.

PS. Stop the Hate. :)

Of course I had to answer him back:

I find it sad that you have the temerity to talk about my supposed sins when on a daily basis you commit the sins of lying and bearing false witness.

Look at yourself, Peter. You are a sad, bloated excuse of a man who has made it his life work to demonize and harm a group of people who haven't done you a bit of harm. You sow the seeds of hate and help to create an atmosphere which causes vulnerable lgbt children to end up hating and harming themselves. Just in case you are wondering, yes I am blaming you in part for these lgbt children committing suicide. And then you talk to me about Jesus's love. You wouldn't know Jesus's love if you died of a heart attack and he raised you from the dead. "Porno Pete" is too nice of a monicker for you, but since I'm being polite, I will only tell you that you shouldn't worry about what I will do when I stand before God. You had better worry about the explanation you intend to give Him for your lifetime of needless hate.

And by the way, I will keep my $50 dollars.

Now on to news briefs:

Bigoted school board member resigns on television- Let the doorknob hit ya where the good Lord split ya:




God disowns gays, and other Knight tales - Another Paul Cameron enabler, Robert Knight says not everyone is a child of God. Funny, Knight doesn't look like God so how would he know.

Barber Wants Obama Investigated for "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" - Matt Barber continues to try and beat out Peter LaBarbera for the ignorance championship title.

Gays should pressure GOP lawmakers, Obama says - I'm inclined to agree with him here. We give our allies more hell than our enemies and I don't agree with that.

Most troops wouldn't oppose serving with gays - Some good news in the midst of the madness.
