i have liked a few things general peter pace has said in the past. this, to me, is vile. people don't choose to be gay (why the hell WOULD they in THIS world for goddess' sake. they are treated like dirt) OR STRAIGHT. people just ARE.
why shouldn't people who just HAPPEN to be gay have the right to the SAME happiness people who are NOT gay have? i see no reason.
General Pace: 'Homosexual acts immoral'
David Edwards
In and interview with the Chicago Tribune today, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Peter Pace said that he thinks "homosexual acts are immoral."
"My upbringing is such that I believe there are certain things, certain types of conduct, that are immoral. ... I believe that homosexual acts between individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts," he said.
Keith Olbermann, host of MSNBC's Countdown, calls Pace's remarks "tomorrow's administration scandal." ...............

I applaud General Peter Pace for taking the correct stand on this matter. His comments are right on target. There is NO REASON for him to apologize to anyone. His personal beliefs are his own and NO ONE need apologize for their personal beliefs. While I agree that he should be loving and respectful in his statements and (more importantly) actions, being forced to accept and celebrate the choice of homosexual behavior is NOT something anyone should be confronted with -- military or civilian.
These gay advocacy groups need to sit down and shut up! There is NOTHING "outrageous" or "insensitive" in what General Pace said in the interview. I listened to part of his comments. He was soft-spoken and respectful, but also firm in his resolve. Pace answered one question with a very straightforward and truthful answer, "The US Military’s mission fundamentally rests on the trust, confidence, cooperation amongst its members, and the homosexual lifestyle does not comport with that kind of trust and confidence and therefore is not supported within the US military. I’ll leave it at that."
Homosexuality *is* an immoral act. It is NOT natural, normal or moral. The lifestyle choice is rife with promiscuity, predatorship and infidelity -- all matters that point to trust, confidence and cooperation. General Pace should be applauded for standing his ground and speaking the truth.
I, personally, plan to be active in the fight against these homosexual advocacy groups as they seek to villainize General Pace. Here's hoping you will join the fight as well. It's high time conservatives (especially Christians) stand up for our beliefs and convictions.
charlie, i'm very sorry you feel as you do. there is not much more i can say to you on this subject
