Republican Oklahoma State Rep Sally Kern has attracted 1,000 backers after being outed as the hateful and intolerant bigot that she is. I guess if there is one thing that will attract the support of conservative Christians its hating the gays. If you missed it Sally Kern says that homosexuality is a bigger danger to America than terrorism and that the gays will directly cause our destruction. Watch it here …

In both the audio recording and her rally (revival?) Sally Kern makes the baseless statement “Studies show no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than a few decades,” Kern said in the recorded comments. “It is not a lifestyle that is good for this nation.”
I would like to see those studies but I wont hold my breath. Homophobia is a relatively new development while homosexuality goes back as far as humanity. Historically homosexuality was tolerated in almost every society with no ill effects. Even the Catholic Church historically accepted homosexuality and only recently changed their opinion on this, though in some parts of the world progressive religion is still alive and well.
I’m sure Jesus is proud to have wonderful people like Sally Kern carrying on his message of hatred and intolerance. I would like to hear your thoughts on this story so please leave your comments below. Thanks.
