    Howard Bess...hardly an unbiased view

    Bess is an example of much that is problematic in the homosexual movement and its adherents who attempt to balance their behaviors with Christianity. He, by his self-proclaimed status, is placed at odds with the position taken by virtually every main-line faith in the world. I must wonder which Baptist convention he is a member of? Certainly not the Southern Baptist version. Howard needs to contantly rationalize his behaviors as do many who practice homosexuality, as a "so-called" pastor he should reflect carefully on his deviant behavior. Sarah Palin is much less "dangerous" than an entire political party that can sleep at night with the 40,000,000 unborn dead on their souls.

    GO SARAH!!
