I'm listening to the testimony about gay marriage in Maine, and this is what I've learned:
- gays are just like Nazis
- one woman was speaking for God because he couldn't be there to speak for himself (she was particularly nasty), I guess God was busy doing something else like killing people with tornadoes
- gays are evil child molesters
Many of the anti-gay folks testifying claim to have friends who are gay. They are deluded. They don't understand the difference between friends and acquaintances.
A friend will support you in good times and bad times, they respect you. They will not describe you as being depraved, Satan-worshipping butt fuckers while claiming to be your friend. I would not even have acquaintances who talk this sort of shit, but then I am lucky to work in a very liberal field.
The testimony of the fundamentalist Christians is particularly vile and suggests to me a high prevalence of mental illness among these folks. In particular, the threats directed towards people for not following the particular religious beliefs are scary, "You will be judged."
