refuse to treat gays

FETUSFREAK STUFF
* "Doctors or other health care providers could not be disciplined or sued if they refuse to treat gay patients under legislation passed Wednesday by the Michigan House." LINK
gee - didnt see this one coming...

* "Runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks cruelly ditched another fiancĂ© over the phone eight years ago — after the pair had already picked out an engagement ring and went house-hunting... "They never consummated their relationship. She claimed she wanted to wait [for marriage]... The prior jilting isn't the only trouble in Wilbanks' past — she was arrested three times for shoplifting" LINK

* "Ours is a stable and prosperous democracy, so no, I don't predict train cars full of gays rolling toward death factories. Still, the mindset of aggrieved righteousness that allowed those trains to roll is not dissimilar from that which would ban books about gay people from public school libraries.
Maybe your instinct is to find the comparison unthinkable. Nobody is interning gays, nobody is mass murdering them.
You're right. But ask yourself: How many would if they could?" LINK
if your goal was to eliminate evil, and you thought gays were evil...

* james taranto: "I am not a Christian, or even a religious believer, and my opinions on social issues are decidedly middle-of-the-road. So why do I find myself rooting for the "religious right"? I suppose it is because I am put off by self-righteousness, closed-mindedness, and contempt for democracy and pluralism--all of which characterize the opposition to the religious right." LINK
good grief

* it pains me to read about "Pro-Darwin scientists" - whats next? pro-pythagorean mathmeticians? LINK
