Ellen Degeneres
How long before we hear puns like "Ellen Degenerate"? I'm so glad I don't watch TV or read mainstream news. I happily didn't even know this is going on. What an amazingly topic. Oh wait. In My Opinion. Let me remind y'all of the quote I have on my desktop taken from someone's sig here, I believe: Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance. -- Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Marc

Oh, quit being obtuse! My point was the "pro-abortion" people put pressure on Komen to "hire" Planned Parenthood back. Komen expressed an opinion and acted on it by firing PP (whatever the initial reasons) and were lambasted for it. They were pressured to hire PP back. In addition, both the pressure for Komen to hire PP back and the "outrage" over Million Moms telling JC Penney to fire Ellen Degeneres are derived from the same "source". Why is it OK for that source to have a voice, but not ok for the "religious zealots" to have a voice? Hypocrite!

I believe that was first used in 1997 when she came out. You would have hoped things had moved on a little since then.

Bill O'Reilly standing up for Ellen DeGeneres[^] Worth watching :thumbsup: It's about JC Penny, who have chosen Ellen Degeneres as their spokesperson. One Million Moms, a mathematically-challenged group of 40,000 bored, whiny stay-at-home pastors’ wives really hate the gays. So they called for a boycott - and received a close down for their facebook group page.

The anchor says that it is wrong for people to demand what they are demanding. The people demanding think it is wrong for Ellen Degeneres to be representing that company because she is gay. What's the difference? These kinds of debates that are based solely on opinions are a massive waste of time. We have quite a few of those (albeit other topics) on Indian TV too but I watch it for pure entertainment.

LOL. Well, one just died recently. Many considered him quite zealous about atheism. And I believe he even called himself a zealot.

Talk about passing judgement. You have no idea who these moms are. And why do conservatives get criticized for standing up for what they believe and liberals don't? Give me a break. It's just their opinion. They have a right to it. Leave them alone.

Liberals get criticised all the time. It is just that the conservatives get criticised for hating, whilst the liberals get criticised for not hating enough.

It's not hate, but that's what the liberals like to call it when they're disagreed with.

Having an intense dislike of someone because of who they are isn't hate? Seems like a fairly good definition to me.

Yes, I agree with that definition. But nobody said Ellen was hated, just what she stands for and how she chooses to live her life. My father and mother punished me when I did wrong, they "hated" the wrong, but they loved me enough to correct me. Their hatred of my wrongdoing does not equate to hating me. The hatred of what Micheal Vic was doing (dog fighting) does not equate to hating him. The hatred of bigotry and discrimination and slavery does not equate to hating the bigoted, nor to hating the discriminator, nor to hating the slave holder. Likewise, someone hating how some people choose to live, does not equate to hating those people who live that way.

Are you seriously suggesting that homosexuality can be 'corrected'?
