Focus on the Pansy
We all can rest at ease....Focus on the Family has deemed Sponge-Bob-Light-in-the-Pants gay. I knew I detected a slight lisp. That yellow square now joins the ranks of Tinky-winky, Burt and Ernie, and Bruce off of queer eye for the straight guy, as characters unsuitable for children. White suburban stay at home moms are currently programming their TiVos to block out this heathen show across the central South. I guess it gives them something to do.
I heard the "Focus" spokesman the other day and he said that the program not only indicated that one of the writers might have tendencies, but also that the show may lead to homosexual tolerance. Yikes! The last thing we need in the country is tolerance (note the sarcasm).
What would this society be if we all listened to these "Focus" crazies? I shudder in fear at the mere thought. Sure the name "Focus on the Family" comes wrapped in a tight little, spiritually rooted sounding name, but is what these people preach truly scriptural? (or even close for that matter?)

This whole thing started with the "We are Family Foundation" and a comment on their website that promoted "sexual tolerance," among many other things. Here is the tolerance pledge that the Focus freaks claim to be offensive:
"Tolerance is a personal decision that comes from a belief that every person is a treasure. I believe that America's diversity is its strength. I also recognize that ignorance, insensitivity and bigotry can turn that diversity into a source of prejudice and discrimination. To help keep diversity a wellspring of strength and make America a better place for all, I pledge to have respect for people whose abilities, beliefs, culture, race, sexual identity or other characteristics are different from my own."
Oh yeah. Steeped in gayness for sure. Kind of ironic that when Focus on the Family takes such opposition to this little pledge, it makes them look ignorant, insensitive and like a source of discrimination. It's right there in the pledge, people.
