Look at Conservapedia, aka a Wikipedia clone without the "liberal bias." As Stephen Colbert says "Reality has a well known liberal bias." It's article on homosexuality is huge, maybe even the biggest one on the website.

It's bigger than the article on Jesus

America.

Ronald Reagon

George W Bush

and everything else right wingers are supposed to like. Seriously, What the fuck? Why is that people who want ban homosexuality, seem more obsessed with homosexuality than anyone else?

1. I think they are all closet homosexuals and use projection to hide it.

3. Agreed. I once knew a really nice, intelligent chiropractor who one day suddenly went on a rant
warning me about the "Homosexual Agenda". It was the first I had heard of it. Long story short: I to this day can't believe the fear and hysteria surrounding the subject. This apparently normal, decent guy was completely unhinged by this fear of gays taking over and influencing the future. Allow me to warn everyone here:
The fear and hate surrounding the right regarding this issue is immense and drives if not defines their everyday lives much more than is apparent.

2. Conservatives are sex obsessed, period.
They deny that part of their nature, so they harp on it in other people. Gays, IMO, are simply the most visible targets. Notice you don't hear a peep from conservatives about hetero couples who enjoy the same activities.

4. They get so fixated on the sex issues they oppose, then
They start obsessing about it, having fantasies about it, and find themselves fully engaging in it.

Kind of hard for them to not to oppose it anymore, when it put them in their position of power, because they would cut their own throats by doing so. They remain in the closet, and if it ever comes out, then 'the devil took control and made them do it.'

5. That's the danger of hatred
It can lead to such obsessions. That's why I roll my eyes at the RRR claims that they "love the sinner", for they obviously don't.

8. it is called reaction formation
it's a psychological phenomenon that seems to afflict republicans almost exclusively.
