Ross Douthat half admits to the intellectual bankruptcy of his opposition of to same-sex marriage and then tacitly demonstrates it with his pathetic reply when pushed to address the topic last month at the New School: “I am someone opposed to gay marriage who is deeply uncomfortable arguing the issue in public.” Mr. Douthat indicated [...]

This guy catches the hidden truth revealed in her infamous answer at the Miss Universe pageant: Your Thoughts?
This poor man had to suffer hearing a woman make references to her fiance a whole four times. It’s damaged his psyche to the point where he can’t stop himself from saying the word homosexual six times in the space of two sentences. He just can’t stop repeating the horrible word: “This woman repeatedly and [...]

This World War II veteran is extremely inspiring: (via the ever-increasingly-awesome blog, SendaiAnonymous) Of course, he’s not the only hero with an opinion on this topic, so it is important to re-air her side too (which we’ve previously featured in full-length presentation): There you have it, two courageous American heroes just with differing views on [...]
My stomach churned when I read about these cruel and stupid measures involved in Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Act of 2009, a proposed bill which would: Reaffirm the lifetime sentence currently provided upon conviction of homosexuality, and extends the definition from sexual activity to merely “touch[ing] another person with the intention of committing the act of homosexuality.” [...]

Another great video from before the inception of Camels With Hammers worth catching up on in case you missed it. This one is from robtish, who has other terrific videos on his youtube channel.

I’m astounded by her self-absorbed, self-congratulating, and self-righteous cognitive dissonance as she champions herself an enemy of “intolerance” (which “disgusts her”) while being the poster girl for denying people equal rights: And for those who are real gluttons for punishment here is Maggie Gallagher’s introduction to Prejean.

This is why we need faith-based arguments in the public square. How would any rational 21st Century person be able to divine such important truths as Mike Heath figured out for us if it weren’t for the input of faith? in recent days, we are all taking more notice of the sky for the simple [...]
Be celibate and/or invisible seem to be the only options conservatives have on the table for millions of people. Andrew Sullivan takes Robert P.
