“I Promise to Love, Honor and OBEY”
When I was in college, I sang in eight weddings one year (all weddings of friends)! In one of the weddings, my friend married a man she promised to OBEY. They used the old line that used to be standard in weddings where the woman promises to [...]

Visit Good-As-You for the video about Truth Wins Out countering an anti-gay ‘ex-gay’ Love Won Out conference in Charlotte, NC over the weekend.
Here are some quotes

I just read this excellent personal explanation of why Prop8 was, and is, such a terrible thing. Christine Bakke posted a letter on her web page on November 17, 2009 (soon after the passage of Prop8 in California). It was by a woman who received a threatening note on her apartment door (where [...]

1/24/2009 Comment on “Ted Haggard Is Completely Heterosexual”
It’s been almost a year since I last commented about Ted Haggard and the heartbreaking situation he is in. I think it’s a shame that his church is so invested in keeping their public image intact that they pressured him to confess ’sexual immorality’, but would [...]

Protect Marriage? Not what Prop 8 was about.
So, Prop 8 was all about ‘protecting marriage’? I don’t think so. Traditional marriage is already ‘protected’. It looks like it’s really about negating legal commitments made by loving same-sex partners.

Will this satisfy the anti-’gay’ groups?
For a long time, the groups who oppose equal rights for non-heterosexual people (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered) have complained about being called ‘homophobic.’  They may have a point. Maybe they are not afraid as much as they are just unwilling to accept other people as equal humans.

This the letter inviting you to join the Courage Campaign.

Women Dancing in color, wood or soapstone
Two weeks ago, I looked through a plate glass window (from a hallway into an office), and I saw a framed poster on a wall. It was in a style I like in color or wood or soapstone. It was an image of women dancing.
Could I Show [...]

Be Honest With Yourself and Your Wife
Mr. Haggard, stop listening to those who are trying to cover up your poor choices for the sake of protecting their reputations. Be honest with yourself and your wife. Give your wife a chance to move on with her life if she wants to. Give yourself a [...]
