    $1000? big deal....


    Does Exodus International grab gays off the street and drag them to their counseling sessions? Last I read the people come to them voluntarily...do you know differently?
    I somehow doubt everyone goes entirely voluntarily. Coming out to your friends and family isn't usually hunky dory. Personally, I consider organizations that insist sexuality can be "cured" as if it were a disease oppressive.

    They have donated to the Family Research Council, who spent $25,000 in 2010 lobbying in support of Uganda's "Kill the Gays" bill....

    I donated a load of tools and a truck stereo and amplifier to the Katrina victims while I was eating at the Olive Garden at the old Windsor Park Mall.
    A lot of people did things during the immediate aftermath of Katrina. It dropped off really quickly though.

    The cop that took the police report told me I had just donated to the Katrina relief fund.

    the only thing bible thumpers can't deny is that oppression is an ugly word.

    is oppression something you find to be nothing?

    Again...

    Just because I am a spurs fan that does not mean I am oppressive to Mavericks fans.

    Just because the guy believes that marriage should be between a man and a woman that doesn't automatically make him oppressive to gays.

    Now...show me where he fired someone for being gay and I might agree with you that THAT was oppression.

    are you saying the only way to educate you about oppression is to show you where he fired someone for being gay?

    oppression comes from groups that actively support and lobby against peoples rights.

    I don't know what "discriminated minority status" means? Do they argue for suspect classification under the equal protection clause? Probably, but they're not treated as a suspect class right now.

    More to the point, even if they do, how's that oppress the breeders?

    Uh? You either are a discriminated minority or you're not.

    In this case, when it comes to rights granted under 'marriage', they're discriminated.

    No, that's discourse and debate. Oppression is when the government is physically violent to you or takes away your fundamental rights. This interpretation is so broad that it takes away any meaning to the word oppression.

    A) Government denying same sex marriage = oppression.

    B) Chick Fil A giving money to a pro-christian organization =|= oppression.

    Conflating A with B is ridiculous.
