I found this while reading Dan Savage's blog. The entire entry is fascinating:
http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2012/04/26/anti-christian-hate-speech-restored-to-interwebs-thanks-to-efforts-of-anti-gay-hate-groups Excerpt:
Peter LaBabera runs an anti-gay hate group—officially designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center—and he follows me on Twitter. When Peter isn't fantasizing aloud about my sex life, he's accusing me of engaging in anti-Christian hate speech. (The Gospel According to Peter: Any gay person who refuses to stand perfectly still while religious bigots punch 'em in the face has committed an anti-Christian hate crime.) This morning I woke up to a tweet from Pete that accused me of "scrubbing" a video from YouTube. The video was apparently being discussed by some other Christian haters shortly before it disappeared from YouTube:
"I discovered that a Savage video I had referenced in an earlier article has been removed also. That one was titled “How to Come Out to Your Evangelical Family.” Since multiple videos in which Savage discusses perverse sexual practices in obscene language remain on YouTube, it appears that the videos that have been removed are those in which Savage expresses virulent anti-Christian bigotry using language so hateful, he makes Reverend Fred Phelps look like a choir boy."

Yogisays...I don't understand what this thing is with Evangelical Christians, why are they such pussies? If I was crazy and thought being gay was wrong and a sin and my child came out to me as being gay I would stick to my guns out of spite. It would simply be easy for me to forget my own child and kick them out of the house, and never speak to them ever again.
Evangelicals need to grab some sack and learn to hate with more conviction!
dooglesays...Good point:
