"You strip me of my rights, and I interrupt you; who's really suffering here?"

Checkmate Tony Perkins.

@h3artands0uLL what video are you watching?

I make that about Savage 5, Perkins 0

Danny may suck cock, but Perkins is a cocksucker.

Oh, yes, the Family Research Council, one of whose founders, George Alan Rekers, caused quite a little brouhaha a while back when he hired a male prostitute to go on vacation with him to handle his package, err, I mean luggage, whilst he was on holiday.

Dan Savage is brilliant in this piece, and he totally demolishes Tony Perkins here. He is simply awesome when he says to Perkins, "That is a lie." In fact, everything that Perkins says in this video is a lie.

@liw213 I will gladly burn in hell any day, and that is my choice. So why don't you let other people do what they want? So much for free will in religion.

@h3artands0uLL If God is love why is religion fighting to ban gay marriage?

The only reason Dan had to interrupt Tony Perkins is because Tony Perkins didn't give Dan a chance to speak. Tony kept using the concept of majority rules as his argument which is convenient considering it's he and his supporters who are part of the majority. Keep holding on to that argument because the tide is changing. I'm so sick of the religious claiming some sort of moral superiority when none exist. You're a good person because you're a good person, not because you are part of a religion.

@h3artands0uLL Jehovah. You have just witnessed me taking the Lord's name in vain. You now have a moral obligation, according to your Bible, to track me down and stone me to death. Its in the Bible. It is part of the instructions of your Loving God. Are you sure you shouldn't reconsider doing everything in the Bible?

Tony Perkins makes great points.He is well versed&extremely smart.He can defend himself. Dan just doesnt let him speak and rudely interrupts because he thinks that way his argument will be more valid. Perkins let's him have his say, yet is polite when he makes a counter argument. I'm a Christian.And proud of it, Im with Perkins here.We're not haters of people. We have a faith to uphold for a Mighty and Loving God.Read the Bible again Savage,God is Love.And his instructions are for our own good.
