For any readers who want the original text, here is the article from the AFA about the video. The relevent bit:
The website is filled with pro-homosexual materials. A "Tolerance Pledge," for example, created by Tolerance.org, part of the leftist Southern Poverty Law Center, encourages signees to pledge respect for homosexuals and work against "ignorance, insensitivity and bigotry."
Most Christians are now aware of what those code words mean, said American Family Association chairman Don Wildmon. "If you are a person who accepts the homosexual lifestyle, then you are tolerant," he said. "If you don't, then you are a bigot who is motivated by ignorance and hate."
If you are a person who accepts the homosexual lifestyle, then you are tolerant," he said. "If you don't, then you are a bigot who is motivated by ignorance and hate."
Actually, "the homosexual lifestyle" is an interesting phrase in its own right, in the context of this discussion. What do they think "the" homosexual lifestyle is, what do they really mean by that phrase, and what does it have to do with how most gay Americans live?
The impression I always got was that "lifestyle" emphasized the 'choice' to be gay; something along the lines of "condition" or "syndrome" might elicit unwanted pity for the dirty buggers. ;)
Or maybe they honestly think that when one 'becomes' gay, one's day-to-day structure changes overnight. I wouldn't put it past some of them.
