19. Have you spent much time with these folks?
There may be some that are angry about the anti-gay marriage ammendment, but SOOOO many aren't.

The way these people think is not like the Catholics or Mainline Protestant. It is VERY different.

They see the world in two groups: Godly and Worldly. Anyting 'of the world' is evil, and everything Godly is good. Homosexuality, in their eyes, is 'of the world' and deserving of condemnation.

Have you heard about Christian Reconstructionism? The whole idea is to replace the US government with a Christian Theocracy with the Old Testament punishments (stoning for gays, etc.) Now before you say this can't happen, there are Reconstrcutionists ALREADY in high places. John Ashcroft for one. The CEO of Diebold is another.
