Robert George sets the record straight :
So there is a debate about whether Christians are obsessed with homosexuality and abortion. Well, some people seem to be obsessed with homosexuality and abortion, but is it Christians ? I don’t think so. For heaven’s sake, just tune in to network TV for a few hours, or watch the Academy Awards broadcast, or visit a university, or talk to people in Hollywood or San Francisco or Hyde Park or on the Upper West Side. Is there a cause more fashionable in the elite sector of the culture than “gay rights”? Many universities have a half dozen or more LGBTQ, etc. organizations and support groups (not to mention official university offices to provide support and even academic departments); few have support groups for morally conservative students wishing to live chaste lives. Dissent from the campus orthodoxy is scarcely tolerated in some universities and not tolerated at all in others. And who is it, by the way, who is insisting on their views about homosexuality (and sexuality generally) being taught to children in public schools—-even over parental objections? Christians? Ha.
