      <![CDATA[Well, if you saw Dateline on Friday where Ann Curry interviewed the Pastor, you would now he apparently IS anti-gay in his own sick way.  <br>
<br>
I believe he stated that homosexuality is a matter of impulse control and "he wants to have sex with every beautiful woman he sees, but he doesn't...".  He supported the ban on gay marriage, which I don't believe was about promiscuity, but about love and supporting another person with whom you are in a primary human relationship.<br>
<br>
So, all of what you say is fine...but his views and his prejudice is way worse than his stance on AIDS.  I thought that believing in GOD meant you love one another, not single people out and decide who is better and who is worse. Not a great message coming from someone who says he delivers "The Word".  <br>
<br>
And, worst of all---shame on Obama.  I know we all think we were part of a great thing in this election, but its not perfect.  Case in point---choice of Rick Warren to give the inaugural prayer.
