Dropping the N-bomb…
NY Christian Coalition channels Heinrich Himmler (yes, I am making a Nazi reference - dropping the N-bomb, if you will):
(New York City) The leader of a conservative Christian lobby group appears to suggest that gays should be required to wear warning labels, although he denies that was his intention.
"We put warning labels on cigarette packs because we know that smoking takes one to two years off the average life span, yet we ‘celebrate’ a lifestyle that we know spreads every kind of sexually transmitted disease and takes at least 20 years off the average life span according to the 2005 issue of the revered scientific journal Psychological Reports," Rev. Bill Banuchi, executive director of the New York Christian Coalition told the Mid Hudson News.
The journal regularly publishes articles described by many mainstream psychologists as misleading and faulty. The homosexuality morbidity study was conducted by the conservative anti-gay Family Research Institute.
Thanks again to AMERICAblog, which points out:
In fact, the "study" in question was done by Paul Cameron, the head of a hate group - literally, the Southern Poverty Law Center has labeled Cameron’s group a "hate group" - Cameron was thrown out of the scientific profession twenty years ago for his hate research. But that doesn’t stop the Christian Coalition from using hate literature and proposing Nazi solutions to brand gays.
I have a feeling that the pink triangles are probably going to be coming out in 2006, assuming the Rethuglicans get such a massive majority that there is no hope of effective opposition, or another 9/11 occurs. Either way, expect Dick "Nobody loves Dean" Cheney to become Chancellor Palpatine at that point.
