GAY TRUTH

Author: Danny Burke. Last April, Brandon Ambrosino authored one of the most compelling articles that I have read all year: “ Being Gay at Jerry Falwell’s University .” Appearing in  The Atlantic , the essay is his own story of coming out of the closet while he was an undergraduate at Liberty University . What riveted me about his account is how the Christians at Liberty University responded to the revelation of his sexuality. He had feared that they would want to stone him.

It is sanctionable, and we will pursue every recourse possible because this suit is defamatory. It’s filled with lies, it’s frivolous, and the attorney who filed it ought to be sanctioned…” The suit, filed on behalf of Vermont lesbian Janet Jenkins, claims that Liberty University School o...

ABC NEWS Australia reports: Republican White House challenger Mitt Romney , wooing social conservatives, has adamantly rejected same-sex marriage and trumpeted his belief in Christian values and the family. Three days after Barack Obama became the first US president to back gay and lesbian marriage , Mr Romney told university graduates on Saturday (local time) that the "pre-eminence of the family" remains at the heart of the principles that underpin the nation. "As fundamental as these principles are, they may become topics of democratic debate," the presumptive Republican nominee told the class of 2012 at Liberty University , the biggest Christian campus in the United States . "So it is today with the enduring institution of marriage. Marriage is a relationship between one man and one woman," he said, raising a loud cheer from a crowd of more than 25,000 - the biggest so far in this campaign season. Mr Romney, who did not directly refer ...
