situation and how homosexuality relates to the Bible and modern Christians. I think that would be a good topic for a day like today where most of us are snowed in and going stir crazy.

Only when you think your personal beliefs should apply to public policies that make life relatively more difficult for those who are in consensual relationships with members of the same sex.

His gay son signing for millions in a few months will temper his disenthusiasm over this announcement just a smidge. I like the fact that he had the tact to talk about his kid dissapointing him in such a non-public way ... book deal for sad daddy ?

Agreed. Dad shouldn't have gone public with his disappointment. By the same token ... he did receive the news via a text message. Both sentiments suggest a lack of respect.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed.

Not proud of it, but sometimes I listen to The Herd podcast on my way home from work, and Colin brought up this very subject the other day and raised some decent points. Specifically, this man fathered 8 children, 3 of which are dead, 2 in prison, and 1 a gay, black american who is about to become a millionaire in the country's greatest sport. Yet, the living, gay, millionaire is the one that concerns him most? Would have thought it would be one of those 5 others, but what do I know.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

But seriously...a text message? Really?


Feb 13, 2014, 10:29 AM

This seems like the kind of thing that you'd want to talk to your parents about in person.

And most people I know who have come out to their parents, the parents reactions were usually "We know. And we've known for a while."

When we drink, we get drunk.
When we get drunk, we fall asleep.
When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.
So, let's all get drunk, and go to heaven!
