You'd eschew using your right to free speech and clam up about it? Take it like a man?
If so, you're a very rare Christian, indeed.
Christians are already under attack in this country.
How so? Not being able to force their religion onto others by way of unConstitutional laws? Are you denied the right to marry as you wish? Are your religious practices limited by laws?

Where did I assert that you said that? I asked you a question, I didn't impute upon you a position.
Quote:....which bigots? You mean the intolerant anti-theist bigots such as yourself?
Oh, I'm not anti-theist; I'm ant-stupid. It's unfortunate that there's an overlap of the two, but I'm careful to draw the line between thoughtful believers, and dumbfucks.
As to "which bigots", I'm talking about the religious folks who would deny civil rights to gay folk. I'm surprised that you're apparently unaware such bigots exist. Perhaps you should read the news a little?
