[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] 1. Christian doctrine has long been against homosexuality. The Bible refers to it as "an abomination." I'm sure there are many who consider themselves Christian and are not anti-gay, but there's probably a lot of doublethink involved there. 2. Notice the way the statement was deliberately phrased and delivered: "...you don't need to be in the pew every Sunday to know there's something wrong in this country when gays can serve openly in the military..." and then a pause, and then a "but" and further qualification. You don't think that was specifically intended to be inflammatory? You may argue that the "but" part is the real meat of his statement, but it's already colored by what he said [i]first[/i]. The gays in the military thing is clearly designed as the "hook" of the ad, which is why that's the part to which everyone is paying most attention. [/QB][/QUOTE]
