As noted by Hooper (see previous posting), "Legatus is a very anti-gay organization of Catholics." He then demonstrates their religiously based anti-gay stance by pointing to exemplars from their own site. There is no "call-to-arms" just a simple statement, "Not the choice I would make if I wanted gay people to drink my beer, wanted political people to see me as unbiased, or wanted my acting to take focus above my views."
As for Baier, the mouth of the Reich - Bryan Fischer - had this to say:
By pulling out of this event, Baier has clearly chosen sides in the culture war. He only pulled out under pressure from an extremist pro-homosexual advocacy group, which managed to bully him into submission.You are entitled to your dissenting opinion Mr. Fischer just as much as Mr. Sinise, Mr. Baier and Mr. Coors are to theirs.
Baier’s decision continues a string of worrying decisions by Fox News and Fox News personnel that raise questions about its ability to be even-handed and unbiased when the subject is non-normative sexual behavior. Fox News anchors have proudly shown up on the red carpet of radical pro-homosexual events, and Out Magazine has included Shepard Smith in its “Power List” of important and influential homosexuals, a listing which Smith to my knowledge has never denied.
Mr. Baier said last year, “I truly try not to lean.” Well, on this one he’s leaned so far he has fallen over.
Bottom line: it is impossible to remain neutral in the culture war on the issue of homosexuality. You are either with God on the matter or you are not.
