"It is of great importance in a republic not only to guard the society against the oppression of its rulers but to guard one part of the society against the injustice of the other part. If a majority be united by a common interest, the rights of the minority will be insecure." -- James Madison

I find it interesting that 70% of African Americans, in a recent pole, are against equal rights for gays, claiming religious reasons.

When a person of color, chooses to oppress another person, based on a book that was used to oppress them, they become the true meaning of that hateful word once given to them by there Christian oppressors. That witch means Ignorant!

@4me2cclearly not all african american are against gay marriage. My religion is against it but i am for it. Cause honestly i dont really care. Gay people dont bother me and i will never go to a gay marriage. Gay marriage has nothing to do with me

This minister is right on the money. It is a civil rights issue! He's right!

This man is clearly Gay! If he was truly a "man of God" he would know that homosexuality is a perversion and that God hates it! Shame on this homosexual minister.
