More fun with Southern Baptists in America's Wang™

Last week, I told you about Krazy Kitty's appearance at the "Family Impact Summit," held at Bell Shoals Baptist Church near Tampa.

Now, my friend and fraternity brother geor3ge tells me that ol' Pontoons wasn't the only excitement at Bell Shoals.

Signs reading “God Loves Me as I Am” and “Queerly Divine and Doing Fine” were seen outside of Bell Shoals Baptist Church in Brandon, Fla., Thursday afternoon.

About 75 gay rights activists called the Family Impact Summit a “hate summit” that encourages bigotry with its opposition to gay “marriage” and for mobilizing Christians to petition against the practice.

Meanwhile, a dozen Bell Shoals church members stood in front of the church to pray for the protestors and explain that their opposition to gay “marriage” is nothing personal.

"We love these people,” said, the Rev. Forrest Pollock, pastor of Bell Shoals, according to The Tampa Tribune. "I think they'll discover that this is a church that loves them and wants to pray for them.”

“I want them to know we don’t hate them,” said church member Kim Jackson, according to the [St. Petersburg] Times. But she believes that gays are in danger of damnation.

“If my child were playing in the street,” she said, “I would still have to rescue that child, even though he’s having the time of his life.”
And if I were that child, I would feel obligated to hurl you in front of a bus, Ms. Jackson. But I don't hate you ...

Bloggers in meatspace

I had the distinct pleasure today and tonight of spending the afternoon and evening here in Evansville, Ind., with my fraternity brother and fellow Atriot geor3ge. Good times.

Here we are being fraternal. I'm the one in yellow.

Thanks for the martini, geor3ge. I owe you one.
