(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) TOLERANCE has often been a clarion call for the liberal left, but a creeping intolerance in political debate is emerging most fiercely from, of all people, progressives. (The Australian) Those politicians, activists and organisations who seek social change should be especially aware of the need for a plurality of views in open debate. How else to seek progressive change if you are not prepared to hear, discuss and, perhaps, overcome prevailing attitudes? Trying to shout down the status quo or prevent conservative voices from being heard is no way to show respect for mainstream values, much less win people over. We raise this at the end of a week in which Julia Gillard cancelled a speaking engagement with the Australian Christian Lobby because she disagr

Gay rights campaigner and MP Warren Entsch says an apology from the head of the Australian Christian Lobby would not make up for his "highly offensive" comments on homosexuality . Inferring the point of Wallace's argument, that homosexual behaviour is unhealthy. Even USA Gay Magazines articulate the dangers of unprotected se, stating that in a survey that 36% of homosexual men with HIV AIDS were having unprotected sex with other gay men without informing them of their condition.  Politicians ignore health facts and follow the lead of homosexual activists. Jim Wallace has come under pro-homosexual lobby criticism after comparing the health impacts of smoking cigarettes to the health of homosexuals.  Prime Minister Julia Gillard condemned the retired SAS commander's comments and cancelled her plans to speak at the Christian Lobby's national conference next month. It is odd,  that the ACL would even invite the PM considering her live-in boyfriend lifestyle

The Prime Minister , Julia Gillard , due to pressure from Homosexual activists has pulled out of speaking at the Australian Christian Lobby 's national conference after its leader suggested a homosexual ''lifestyle'' was more hazardous to health than smoking. The group's managing director, Jim Wallace , made the comment in Tasmania this week during a debate on same-sex marriage. Rodney Coomes from the Homosexual lobby did admit to particular health issues that face the homosexual community but attacked Wallace's dated statistics. It has outraged homosexual campaigners, who called for Ms Gillard to distance herself from the standard position of Christianity in that any sexual act outside of heterosexual marriage is sin.  Homosexuals want Gillard not to speak at the ACL conference. It does beg the question why would the ACL want Gillard as their speaker considering the fact that she is the first PM to flout a live-in boyfriend. Such a relationship according

The head of the Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) Jim Wallace says smoking is healthier than the lifestyle that would be promoted by same-sex marriage. Mr Wallace made the claim in a debate on marriage equality with Greens leader Christine Milne at the University of Tasmania today. Answering a question from a student on the relevance of his views, he said health statistics among the gay community were worse than those for smokers. "I think we're going to owe smokers a big apology when the homosexual community's own statistics for its health - which it presents when it wants more money for health - are that is has higher rates of drug-taking, of suicide, it has the life of a male reduced by up to 20 years," he told the audience. "The life of smokers is reduced by something like seven to 10 years and yet we tell all our kids at school they shouldn't smoke." After the debate, Mr Wallace said the figures saddened him. "But what I'm saying is
