Washingotn Blade:The Blade obtained text of two proposed anti-gay resolutions and a third relatively pro-gay counter-proposal on the table for discussion during the upcoming meeting in Cleveland, Ohio.
...snip...
One resolution, titled Resolution for Balanced Sex-Ed in Schools, was introduced by former Michigan State House lawmaker and RNC member Dave Agema. It encourages schools teaching the homosexual lifestyle in their sexual education class to also include the harmful physical aspects of the lifestyle.

Another resolution, titled To Reserve, Strip and Pursue, was introduced by Republican National Committee member Ross Little of Louisiana directly. The proposal responds to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage by calling for action from Congress saying the ruling violates the U.S. Constitution.

(14,459 posts)I especially like the proposed rollback in Congress, trying to use freedom of religion to support eliminating other people's rights.
I think we need some more Church of Satan and Flying Spaghetti monster movements to show them how freedom of religion really looks.

"Frederick Douglass told in his Narrative how his condition as a slave became worse when his master underwent a religious conversion that allowed him to justify slavery as the punishment of the children of Ham. Mark Twain described his mother as a genuinely good person, whose soft heart pitied even Satan, but who had no doubt about the legitimacy of slavery, because in years of living in antebellum Missouri she had never heard any sermon opposing slavery, but only countless sermons preaching that slavery was God's will. With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil that takes religion." Nobel Prize winning physicist Steven Weinberg
Fucking psychopaths.
