Out That Young?!?

Most 14-year-olds are nowhere near having a good grip on who they are and who they want to be, and yet this girl is already certain she’s a lesbian. Not only that, she’s out and proud. My spider senses are tingling. Methinks she’s got rather “open” parents filling her head will ultra-liberal, morally bankrupt ideas.

Putting that aside, I think dress code rules in schools give them the right abridge free speech on school grounds.

If you’re an atheist, God does not exist, so effectively, this fellow has put nothing before his country. Where’s the problem?

"Calling Dr. Paine….Calling Dr. Paine….You’re needed for emergency rod removal."

Flag Flap Pits God Versus Country

"There’s a flap over a flag in Westmoreland County. Folks there are up in arms because a popular beverage company is flying a Christian flag above the American flag. United States code states the American flag always comes first on the flag pole. "

I Now Pronounce You Man and Husband

Personally, I am against the idea of gay marriages, but that is from a religious standpoint. I don’t see a reason why they should be illegal. In fact, I think legal gay marriages would go a long way to fixing health care inequalities. As long as the Catholic Church never condones it, I’ll be happy.
