Sticking Up For Alan Keyes

I hate to do this, because in general, I consider the man to be off the deep end and an opportunist of the bad kind. But I have to do this.

Sigh

Alan Keyes has staked his claim as a man of faith. His faith states that homosexuality is a sin. So, why should he be blasted for stating in straight forward terms, that those who practice homosexuality are immoral?

And since he believes his faith tells him that abortion is murder, and his faith states that murder is a sin, why is it wrong for him to say that the "leader" of his faith would not vote for a man who goes against the teachings of the faith?

Okay, now I have to go take a long shower.

I can see your point but it's not what Alan said, it's the context in which he said those things. We can also generally agree that the media had a field day with the semantics of his assertions.

The man went walking on thin ice, naturally, cracks in the ice appeared under his feet.
