1. Very Good ! Thanks for sharing
You know, I would like to see some kind of study - possibly psychological - dealing with why there is a fear of homosexuality.

3. Great article RG!
You really did do a great job. Thank you for taking the time to write it, and for taking the time to post it here. :)

One thing, I didn't catch the original WP insert, would you have a link handy for that? So I can read the bullshit that inspired you to write what you did. :)

Thanks. :)

5. That Insert Was Disgusting
It was made up to look like a magazine (similar to Parade) and some people thought it was news according to posts on other boards.

I hope they print your article.

Please tell us if they do so that those of us who don't read the WP (which is quickly becoming a mirror of the Washington Times) can read it. Thanks.
