Huckabee discriminates gay people

Mike Huckabee, who wants to become the president of the United States, did some more gay bashing yesterday during an interview of Beliefnet. He stated that “Marriage has historically, as long as there’s been human history, meant a man and a woman in a relationship for life. Once we change that definition, then where does it go from there?…Well, I don’t think that’s a radical view to say we’re going to affirm marriage. I think the radical view is to say that we’re going to change the definition of marriage so that it can mean two men, two women, a man and three women, a man and a child, a man and animal. Again, once we change the definition, the door is open to change it again“. Okay, so let’s see if we understand this man’s logic. He claims gay people shouldn’t be allowed to marry, as then inevitably a man will be able to mary a child or an animal? That’s strange. So that second adaption would pass as a law without any trouble? The word “far fecthed” doesn’t even begin to describe this way of reasoning. The other argument that gay people shouldn’t be allowed to marry, is that in the old days, that didn’t happen either. Ok, so mister Huckabee doesn’t want anything to be different then in the very beginning of human life? I propose he then gives up electricity, the internet and his mobile phone as well. Things that didn’t used to be like that, and now do exist: that’s called “progress”.

    Fundamentalists drive me crazy because they choose what is in fact fundamental, and everyone has to go along with it. Progressive Christianity (or just intelligent Christianity I like to call it) is the way to go. It gets through the trash that has been added and chaged throughout the centuries and gets to the core of the life of Jesus Christ…a radical call to equality. He came to turn the prevailing religious and political strucrues structures around and give power to the powerless. The Republican Fundamentalist are the most anti-Christian people that I have ever seen. I’m a happily married gay man (Legally in MA)and we are practicing Christians the the progressive United Church of Christ.
