"Do you really believe that the Jesus who was depicted in
the Scriptures as being on the side of those who were
vilified, those who were marginalized, that this Jesus would
actually be supporting groups that clobber a group that is
already persecuted? That's a Christ I would not worship. I'm
glad that I believe very fervently that Jesus would not be
on the side of gay bashers. To think that people say, as
they used to say, that AIDS was God's punishment for
homosexuality. Abominable. Abominable."
