Gay is not a choice. You are born that way. O.K., so you're straight...
if someone tries to make you gay, it's not going to happen, because you are straight. If you are gay, it works the same way. If someone tries to make you straight , it's not going to happen. Sure there are people who are living lies to please others ,but they're not being true to themselves. Everyone should be able to have a happy life without the torment and degradation of someone else. Walmart should be boycotted for carrying
such a vile, discrimanatory book.
Hate is not a family value.
I agree with everything but the highlighted. As has been stated by others on the thread, if you don't like the book, don't buy it. I, for one, won't be buying it. As for boycotting Walmart over this book, does that mean you'll also be boycotting Amazon, Borders and Barnes & Noble? Because, though I've not checked beyond Amazon, I'd bet that both of the others, not to mention most other bookstores carry this book. Especially those like Waldenbooks that is advertised as a "Christian" bookstore. So, if I want the bookstores I frequent (as well as any other store that sells books) to continue to carry the books I like despite others not liking them, I just have to put up with once in a while seeing a book I don't like.
Boycotts are kind of hypocritical...because you're doing the same thing as the person who is being bigoted, aren't you? Punishing someone for having a different point of view?
So wait -- no retail or media outlet engages in censorship unless they all do it for a particular item or message? As long as it's available somewhere else it's not censorship? That's an interesting definition of the word. A false one, but interesting nonetheless.
Yep. I'd say censorship is the Chinese government controlling what people can see online and the Iranian government blocking sites. Trying to make something unattainable by all and putting a ban on it is censorship. But if one place chooses not to carry it, I don't see how different that is from the bakers who didn't want to make rainbow cupcakes. It's a personal business choice. A stupid one, cause you alienate customers, but a choice nonetheless.
A children’s book written by the wife of anti-gay Standard of Liberty president Stephen Graham is being carried by over 100 Walmart stores. Chased by an Elephant, the Gospel Truth about Today’s Stampeding Sexuality by Janice Barrett Graham was written to “help shed the clear light of truth on today’s dark and tangled ideas about male and female, proper gender roles, the law of chastity, and the God-given sexual appetite,†according to Janice Graham in the book’s introduction.
Nice, and the reviews are hilarious! Every single person gave this book 1 star so that says something about this book.
Ohh....I see........this is a book by mormons! No wonder! Not only does it offend the libs by daring to suggest that their pet issue, homosexuality, is wrong.....it's written by cultists! So Christians will hate it, too.
Should we "boycott Walmart" also because they carry PRO gay books?
