"Homosexuals are dangerous. They proselytize. They come to the door, and if your son answers and there is nobody there to stop it, they grab the son and run off with him. They steal him. They take him away and turn him into a homosexual."
— In 1992, as reported by journalist Jimmy Breslin

A few months ago, I recalled a vague yet traumatic childhood memory.  Having been raised in a strict Baptist household, I learned about evangelism (which basically means trying to convince everyone on the planet that your fundamentalist Christian ideas are the one and only way to be saved from eternal damnation). Any questions or different interpretation of God's word was heresy and was inspired by the devil. At least, that 's what my church taught. *No offense intended here toward open-minded Christians*  Part of this effort to educate the heathens was to hand out these religious tracts published by Jack Chick.  I had forgotten exactly what they looked like, but I remembered that they were disturbing to me, even as a child.  I took a chance and looked for them online.  I found out they are still in print and still being distributed.  I thought I'd share this little sample of one of them.  I hate to advertise for this guy, but I have to give credit where credit is due:

I couldn't help but notice how he left out the part where God's man Lot offered his virgin daughters to the angry mob.  I think my favorite part its the warning "If anyone tries to make you gay,  stay away from them."  

Well, it looks like Roy Moore, former Chief Justice of the Alabama supreme court, fired for refusing to remove the giant monument of the ten commandments from the rotunda of the court house, will be running for governor of our great state.  He'll win, too.  No doubt.

Next thing you know, we'll all be court ordered to attend Sunday school every week.

He's also the judge who said that gay parents are unfit to raise their own children based on their sexual orientation alone, ordering that custody be taken from a lesbian mother and given to the children's heterosexual father despite his history of abusing the children.

I think it's time for me to consider moving to another state....
