Dr. Gerry Jones (Or "How I Learned that Hateful Bigots are all Stupid")

The idiotic homophobes are coming out in force. Recently, we had a letter from a "Mary" (whose relatives are now attempting an e-battle with me, starting with insults from the get-go), and now we have Gerry Jones, noted doctor of anthropoly err... Uneducated dolt.

And I mean that when I say it. I didn't mean the "doctor of anthropology" part at all, but I figured since he wrote in a manner to suggest that he is some sort-of authority on the history of marriage and human sexuality in various cultures around the world, he must think he is some sort-of doctor of anthropology. But he's not. And do you know how I know he's not? Because the facts in his letter can easily be refuted by an Anthropology 101 book.

Hooray for pro-life and traditional family values!

I wish to congratulate the voters of Maine -- one of the most liberal states in the Union -- for rejecting the counterfeit and oxymoronic notion of "same-sex marriage."

Homosexual activists are hurting and broken people desperately seeking affirmation of an objectively deviant lifestyle. One that, even in their heart of hearts, they know to be wrong and a dead end. They remind me of spoiled children dressing up and playing house, refusing to come in when mom calls for dinner. The vote is significant because we are dealing with forced affirmation of homosexuality -- under penalty of law. This is an historic battle for the minds and souls of our children.

A dead-end? Does this mean that, because they cannot have children, it's a dead-end marriage and there is no reason for it? I sure hope this man goes around telling all of the sterile couples out there that their marriages a sham and a dead-end. I sure hope he tries hard to overturn their legality!

And you know, not only does this guy not have the simplest understanding of marriages and choices in society, he doesn't even understand the facts of how laws and freedom work. Nobody's forcing anybody to affirm homosexuality, the law would simply make the government affirm it. Everybody, including Gerry Jones, would still be free to be a bigoted, hateful idiot if the law passed.

Gay marriage has now lost in all 31 states in which the question has been put to a popular vote.

The time has come for a federal amendment banning homosexuality and same-sex marriage.

He wants to timewarp back to when homosexuality wasn't even allowed. Too bad the Supreme Court already found that sodomy was legal. Good luck overturning that one.

I'm glad he admits he's celebrating the "defeat" of gay marriage... Maybe he'll throw a party... With booze... And a freak accident will occur... And nobody of any intelligence will miss him.

Violence: an acceptable family value.

You heard it here, first, folks. Well, okay, you might've heard it over on 9th Wonders (an unofficial Heroes fansite forum), but if you haven't, you're probably hearing it first from me, then.

Dear NBC

Heroes has been the favorite show of my wife and I from season 1 because it really is a fantastic drama. Recently the gay/lesbian topic has been introduced and I thought I should comment on this because not saying anything will never make a difference.

My wife and I believe in traditional family values and have struggled to find entertainment that will align with that. Heroes has been fantastic not only because of its intricate character cast and brilliant concept, but for my family it has been reasonably safe entertainment. We don't have to worry about whether or not we will have to turn off the TV mid show. Most every other show is not as entertaining or clean enough for the whole family to watch.

For the most part this show has been wholesome, which my family greatly appreciates, but I am very concerned about the direction this is heading. Even though my wife and I are huge fans of the show, we are concerned that we may be forced out of the target audience, which is a business decision i guess, and consequently have to quit watching.

I realize that not everybody shares my opinion, but many do. I am just tired of having it pushed on my family and I during every single show we watch. So, I just thought I should post and hope for the best before it is to far gone for the traditional family values audience.

I do not mean to offend anyone, this is just how I feel.

Your Loyal Viewer,
Atticus

P.S. My wife and I are in my early 20's in case you are wondering^[1]

What. The. Fuck?

A show that, at many times, glorifies violence is completely acceptable to this person under the guise of "family values", but hey, homosexual loving is just outright fucked-up?

Gosh, the things people get upset about these days. It's completely okay that people have superpowers and main and murder each other with them. What's wrong with television these days is THE GAYS!

The gays are ruining television, spitting on traditional family values and teaching kids bad things. What America needs more of is blatant, vapid superhero storytelling, teaching little boys that superbeings are real, and that they can be one, too... As long as they don't suck cocks.

Atticus: A true dumbass if I've ever seen one. And seriously, I've seen him... In my visions. I have powers, too.^[2]
