Editor's note - A news brief post I published today went viral. Apparently claims that the suicide rate in the LGBTQ community is due to promiscuity brought everyone out to comment. With that in mind, I wanted to repost part of something I published a few years ago having to do with all of the negative things said about the LGBTQ community. I continue to be amazed how some people can accuse us of so many things without being called to the carpet regarding said claims' huge contradictions:
Gays are sick people:
Their [gay] minds are perverted, they’re frankly sick people psychologically, mentally, and emotionally.” – Bishop EW Jackson
Yet almost all gays make lots of money:
“You know, I saw yesterday how much -- how much money the homosexual community has. I mean, good gracious, the average homosexual makes four times more than I do . . . I mean, they're not -- these people are not in poverty or hurting or denied or anything else.” – Donald Wildmon, American Family Association
Gays are only a small part of the population:
“Relying on three large data sets: the General Social Survey, the National Health and Social Life Survey, and the U.S. census, a recent study in Demography estimates the number of exclusive male homosexuals in the general population at 2.5 percent and exclusive lesbians at 1.4 percent.” – Family Research Council in its inaccurate brief “Homosexuality and Child Abuse”
