I KNOW I am responding to one of the trolls, but....

First, you first sentence is dead on...absolute.

I wanted to speak to your next sentence and in a manner of discussion.

Gays are a perversion to many religious sects. Acceptance of gays is a new headline on the social map.

I suggest you read more about the book I posted on. This morning the gay movement and gay marriage was used as an example on the Morning Joe program. On gay marriage was this point.....why does someone who for their entire life, and still, who believe in a marriage between a man and a woman and have for years and years be ostracized for believing that. Why are they bad for believing that. The point is, your point of view cannot be thrown out and if anyone disagrees, they are bigoted or racist. I hope you understand the point I am making. I am not discussing that issue.....gay marriage, but the attitude that people bring to the debate. Why mock those who do not believe in gay marriage ?

I also hate the comment on procreating like gerbils although it was not aimed at any particular race or anything, it is deragatory. The point of it not aimed at any particular group was cleared up after the post was reviewed.

BIG Point is the one about judging those who do not agree with you on, especially social issues. Having things thrown in your face, and then called names because you do not conform to the "new liberal" thinking is not fair at all. I have said I am sick and tired of being called racist for all of the wrong reasons and that term is used much too freely. I am not a bigot, yet I, as you know, have been called a old man bigot. Why was I called that ? Because I have different views on the law, work ethic, etc. I am using this next as JUST AN EXAMPLE. The jump to judgment in Ferguson Mo. calling everyone within 24 hours racists, and bigots and turning that city into a nightmare was inexcusable, yet....we had reasons.

I am just saying.....you cannot force your beliefs on others by jumping on them and calling them names. I am very defensive any more, and you do not know me, but I think I can say with no fear of contradiction have done more for racial equality over the last 60 + years than you or most in The Villages. Not because I am a better person, but because I was thrust into that position as a very young man and it became my life. YET, I am called a bigot, not because I said anything bad about a race, but because I do not agree with our President, who happens to be black, or because I believe this country is of the law first and there are ways to do things. That makes me a bigot or a racist....I disagree.

Thanks for reading if you actually did......just understand on these social issues, you cannot shove them on people and call them names because they do not accept it. 13 years ago, it was illegal to engage sodomy, and today almost 40 % of the countries of the world consider it to be illegal. Judism and Catholicism still consider it un natural acts...two of the worlds largest religions. I am not making a case either way here, just trying to tell you that attacking people is just not fair because they feel differently than you.
