Anyways, I was just sitting with my brother in law on Christmas Eve and he was on his smartphone looking at Facebook. And then he was saying how he's annoyed by gay people and he called them fags. Apparently he has a gay friend on Facebook. And he's all like "Sorry, but I don't want fags around my kids. It's bad enough they are forcing their disgusting agenda on us".

This entire statement literally almost made me fell off my chair. For one I have a few gay friends and also I just don't think it's right to say things like that.

Anyways, he and my sister are coming over for New Years Even tonight, how do I combat this if the situation ever arises?

Keep in mind he's an avid Donald Trump supporter...so logic isn't really a possibility with him.

The best solution is a felony.

Just remind him that there are no marriages in heaven. Matthew 22:30 https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Matthew%2022:30

He might start feeling gay after a billion years.
