The part the homophobes always miss: “heterosexual” IS A SEXUAL ORIENTATION. This video is well worth watching. Rep. Christofanelli is conservative on many issues, including guns, but he’s got this one right. He’s openly gay himself.

I want to draw attention to this connection between Al Mohler and Tony Perkins. This is important, because this is the kind of thing that many evangelicals and other conservative Christians like to deny.

For those not familiar with Toney Perkins, he is the president of Family Research Council, a certified anti-LGBT hate group who is also known for Islamophobia.

You can see an explanation on the Southern Poverty Law Center's site explaining why they designated the FRC as a hate group. It includes a long list of horrific quotes, many of which come from Perkins.

Among other things, Tony has personally spread the narrative that LGBTQIA+ people are sexual predators and specifically target children. Many conservative Christians refuse to grapple with some of the FRC's most vile statements.

Those who will acknowledge how terrible Perkins and the rest of the FRC are will then try to minimize them by claiming that they are "fringe" and "not well listened to."

And yet, here we have evidence of Perkins being Chummy with Al Mohler, the president of SBTS, a well-known seminary run by what is arguably the largest evangelical denomination in the United States.

That chumminess flies in the face of any claims that Perkins and his organization are "fringe" and "not very powerful." Anyone making that claim is either completely ignorant or outright lying. Either way, this is not something that can be allowed to stand unchallenged.

Evangelicals need to either admit that they are in lockstep with these terrible people or they need to clean their house and break ties with them. If you are not willing to cut ties with terrible people, you are yourself a terrible person.

I don't give the slightest fuck about the fact that the Focus on the Family headquarters was vandalized. They don't give a fuck that their hatred has contributed to the killing of queer people. Their property does not matte more than queer lives.

I guess I need an toot (heh, toot). I’m John, I’m the lead engineer at a Fortune 500. I live in Philly with my partner, our two Pepper and Luna, our three Pilsner, Pixel, and Riesling. I’m a big Philly sports fan, I’m also a beer nerd.

I will post about , , , video games, animals, , , and maybe just post to yell into a void.

Here are some random photos :)
