More Irony!
Evangelical Christians accuse homosexuals of trying to convert people to their lifestyle.
In case you still don't get it, the definition of "evangelize" (according to www.wordreference.com): "to convert to Christianity."

If you still don't see the hypocracy, consider this: Have you ever had people come to your door to attempt to convert you to Christianity? Have you ever had people come to your door to attempt to convert you to homosexuality?

To the anonymous contributor,
You neither speak for all people nor all straight people.

Contrary to your uninformed opinion, legitimate studies show that young children CAN NOT be taught this "horrible" way of life. Could you be "taught" to be homosexual? I could not.

And finally you missed the irony entirely. Let me explain it for you. Homosexuals are generally NOT evangelical in their sexual orientation. That is to say, they do not generally try to convert people to their lifestyle. Right-wing Christians, however, are ferocious in their attempt to convert people to their lifestyle. Yet they denigrate homosexuals for this imagined attempt at conversion. Hence the irony. Understand now?

I'm a little late getting to this conversation, but I must add that the oppostion to same-sex marriage just baffles me completely. If two men want to get married, what's that to me or you? (And while we're on the subject, why do so many men like to watch 2 women make out, but watching men make out is icky?) If a particular church doesn't want to perform a marriage ceremony, that's its right, but for the government to deny equal rights to same-sex partners is shameful. But back to the original question; I've had plenty of religious zealots try to convert me, but no homosexuals have ever tried to turn my head. (Maybe I'm just not lesbian material?) Linda
