Since as we all know, the only thing that matters to Christianity in our time is sex, and gay sex at that.

And here you have the White House officially encouraging gay rights discrimination. Ah, for the ability to believe in Obama's Commu-Oh, bad analogy, the Soviets were some of the worst persecutors of gays around-I mean, Oh for the the idiots who believe that Obama's a prog-Oh, bad analogy, the Progressives were eugenicists and racist.
