Burnt Orange Report

Please don't suggest that College Republicans learn facts. They don't go to school to learn. They go to school to holler.

I concur.

Some people are lost causes. They don't go to college to grow up or to become cosmopolites (eh, not like I'm exactly cosmopolitan, but you know I don't have a burning hatred of the French, so I guess that's good enough).

College is about more than career preparation.

I would like to be able to say that I would be embarrassed for you guys to have this group say something that shows their own stupidity, ignorance and hate hail from your state...but I am from the same place as Rick "man-on-dog" Santorum (actually live only a few miles from the exteremely wealthy suburb of Pittsburgh he lived in when he was actually a resident of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.)

Sadly, we all have our own crosses to bear. Keep up the great work!

How did these YCT folks get into UT? Are the standards that low?

Their first paragraph says basically homsexuality is a choice. Does that mean the members of YCT are heterosexual because they want to be?

The YCT claims that homosexuality has been disproven to be a genetic disorder. Cite the study or studies. Are they sound? Any that they would cite would probably not be sound. They then say that "those suffering from this affliction have the ability to change." Really? Like John Paulk?

The YCT claim to use logic, yet they do not. The "logic" they use is bassed on fallacies. Maybe they should spend more time in class instead of making up half-assed "agruments."

The fact that a person is gay has nothing to do with the idea that morality is nothing more than a personal choice. Who came up with that argument? There are plenty of gays who behave within the bounds of Judeo-Christian morality (excepting the not completely convincing claim that the Bible prohibits homosexuality per se), they believe murder is wrong, we must show love to our neighbors, and the same love to our enemies, etc. Why do "Christians" pick one "sin" and say that if you do this, you are beyond the pale, yet all of us sin every day in uncountable ways. If you believe in their notions of morality, everyone needs to be forgiven on a daily basis. Why gay sinners are worse than others, I don't know. If homosexuality was somehow one of the worst things a person could do, don't you think it might be more promintently condemned in the Bible? Just a thought.

What it all comes down to is these raving homo-phobes are terrified of anything that growing up in Plan or Highland Park or Sugar Land didn't prepare them for, so they respond with fear. These guys are scum. I hope they all have gay children and that this forces them to learn understanding of love of every human being.

There's a fair amount of theology that holds that there are indeed different varieties of sin of lesser or greater magnitude. I could explain it further, but it would require sucking up all of the spare electrons in this area. Just start with Augustine and work your way forward.
