The homophobic conservatives conclude their Value Voter Summit in Washington D.C. with a Morning Worship Service led by the top anti-gay hate monger of them all Tony Perkins, President, FRC Action & Family Research Council. As they condemn our LGBT families in their warped perception of conservative values the UK moves closer to marriage equality. Prime Minister David Cameron of the Conservative Party has called for marriage equality in the United Kingdom. "President Reagan & the Republican Party expanded upon the achievements of Margaret Thatcher & the Conservative Party. We should now look to the example set by David Cameron in embracing marriage equality. It is the conservative thing to do," stated Log Cabin Republicans Executive Director R. Clarke Cooper.

View Our Historic Short Trailer on Gay Marriage
I stood before a conservative conference once and I said it shouldn't matter whether a commitment is between a man and a woman, or a man and a man, or a woman and woman. And you applauded me. Five years on, we are consulting on legalizing gay marriage, and to anyone who has reservations, I say this: yes, it's about equality. But it's also about something else: commitment. Conservatives believe in the ties that bind us; that society's stronger when we make vows to each other and we support each other. So I don't support gay marriage in spite of being a conservative, I support gay marriage because I am a conservative.
ReplyDeleteSympathetic joy is when we take delight in the happiness of another instead of begrudging it. Can we allow the lives of others to be different from ours and feel happy for them? Can we rejoice for them as their happiness grows? I do not believe that happiness is a limited resource, that the more someone else has, the less there is me. I do not believe that heterosexuals have a monopoly on love and commitment. I say, "Love the religious bigot, disagree with the religious bigotry." If Ellen Degeneres is happy in her same-sex marriage then I am happy for her too.
