Blacklisting of Yes on Proposition 8 People
Dr. Albert Mohler suggests that the blacklisting and persecution of Yes on Prop 8 individuals and organizations is a sign of things to come:
The response of Hollywood is the temptation to blacklist anyone who supported Proposition 8 and to eliminate or marginalize their influence in liberal Hollywood. This response deserves a close look, for it almost surely represents the shape of the future when it comes to the issue of gay marriage.The LA Times weighed in yesterday on the internal debate within pro-gay circles regarding blacklisting.For some time now, many legal scholars and observers have warned that the issue of same-sex marriage represents one of the most coercive dynamics in our culture. Where same-sex marriage is legal, the coercive effect is to punish anyone who will not recognize, endorse, or celebrate same-sex marriages. As groups like the Becket Fund have warned, churches and religious institutions are very vulnerable in this respect.
Comments
I would like a list of those people who have been blacklisted, so I can support them. The 52% of Ca voters who voted Yes on 8 would probably like to know, too. I predict that all the gay nastiness is going to backfire. They are so self-centered that they don't realize they are hurting themselves. They will never be happy. Very sad.
