Required Listening: “You don’t follow the Bible! You’re a liar!”
Michelangelo Signorile wasn’t in the mood to coddle an anti-gay Christian who refused to take any responsibility for helping to create the climate that is pushing gay kids to suicide. One day, they’re going to have to ignore the anti-gay shit in the Bible, just like they ignore the pro-slavery shit in the Bible, the […]
