Some Black Ministers Decry Gays' Comparison to Civil Rights Movement |
Some Black Ministers Decry Gays' Comparison to Civil Rights Movement
(Boston-AP) -- Some black ministers are angry that advocates of gay marriage
compare their movement to the struggle for racial equality.
The Reverend Talbert Swan of Springfield, Massachusetts, says homosexuality
is "a chosen lifestyle" while blacks cannot choose the color of their skin.
The Reverend Walter Fauntroy, who organized the Reverend Martin Luther King
Junior's March on Washington, is a leading opponent of gay marriage and
supporter of a constitutional amendment to block it.
But the Reverend William Sinkford, a black man who is president of the
Unitarian Universalist Association, says he believes gay civil rights are
this generation's great challenge.

Well these black bigots are no different than the white bigots.
The ban on marriage is based solely on the sexual organs one
is born with the very same as their race these special blacks
were born with. After all a gay can marry a lesbian. Funny how
they were all for us liberals to help them up the ladder to equality
only to find they are the same old redneck bigots as you are.
Why don't you call them niggers as per usual with you, bigot?
