Thanks, we could hope so.
This whole campaign is thinly veiled at best, imo Savage was outright
intimidating, spouting hate, and then he bullied those kids who walked out.
He is what is commonly known as a hypocrite.
As for the Whitehose.gov supporting this, well thats a clear agenda.
And another thing, having him up there on multiple screens like that....

This is absolutely hilarious. Dan Savage tells the absolute truth about the bible and cherry picking, and now "Christians" are up in arms about it. Lets be serious now.

Why does it matter what Jews do? We are talking about Christians. And it isn't just one Book. Gods "laws" are in every single book of the Bible. Only a tiny handful are listed as a sample. Like I said, there are pages and pages of this insanity. People try to wash these crazy laws away with any sort of excuse.

Are you telling me I am talking about Christianity??
That is untrue. I am talking about a loudmouthed bully meathead Dan something.
By your own admittance you have no idea what you are talking about.

You are right. I have no idea what you are talking about. I fail to see how Jewish people read the Bible has anything to do with how Christians interrupt the Bible. And it also doesn't answer why Christians are so adamant about certain Biblical scripture rules and yet ignore others. One of God's ten commandments is to keep the Sabbath Holy. The Bible lists 39 things that Christians cannot do on the Sabbath. I don't know any Christians that keep that commandment.

I think Savage is a good con man.
And a professional BeeEss'er.
Supporters really need to ask for an audit of his 501(c)(3) outfit and make sure you support the people getting paid the big money !! He started that tax status in Sept 2010....It Gets Better Project
They could be hoodwinking you.
Maybe these people are too !!
These videos seem to be made right about the time Savage set up his tax status company !! Hmmm.
Speaker Pelosi adds her voice to the chorus of Americans across the country as part of the It Gets Better Project to tell LGBT youth: you are not alone, it gets better.

Big Bullies: How the Religious Right is Trying to Make Schools Safe for Bullies and Dangerous for Gay Kids
Students deserve an education that is free from bullying and harassment, and in many districts parents, teachers, principals, community members and students are working together to create a safe and welcoming environment for all children. Bullying can impede learning and ruin lives. As Education Secretary Arne Duncan has said, “bullying is doubly dangerous because if left unattended it can rapidly escalate into even more serious violence and abuse.” Close to nine in ten Americans believe that bullying is a “serious problem,” and many communities are directly challenging harassment and violence in schools.
However, many Religious Right activists want to derail efforts to combat bullying. An increasing number of conservative leaders and organizations have fiercely opposed anti-bullying programs developed by schools and education groups for the sole reason that such programs identify and attempt to combat the widespread bullying of LGBT youth.
Rather than recognize and address the problem of bullying against students who are gay or perceived to be gay, Religious Right groups want schools to embrace a policy of inaction. Many resort to repeating discredited lies about sexual orientation and vilifying the LGBT community and its allies to back up their opposition to anti-bullying programs that mention anti-gay bullying. Concerned students, families, teachers, education professionals, and public officials should not be fooled by the far-right’s attempt to smear anti-bullying programs, and should instead ensure that schools address bullying with a direct, honest and comprehensive approach.

They are honestly trying to argue that it is their 1st amendment right to bully.

Yes, the outrage!
Ever hear the word "hyperbole?"
Is it the positive message or the borderline femaleness of Ms. Clinton you object to?
You simply ignored the content of my post. All you did was try to convince people that I somehow agreed with you by quoting small lines of my text out of context.
The videos you posted, and the above "pledge", all indicate a preference for a particular group of victims. They also seem to deny that members of the gay community are capable of being bullies.
