Wow, talk about tying yourself up in knots. Then again, to be fair it's pretty hard to justify the anti-gay position from any angle. If you argue the Bible, heck, Leviticus is full of all kinds of wacky laws so what makes this one special? If you argue homosexuality is against nature then why does it occur in at least 500 species of animals?
Still, this was so spectacularly embarrassing it was almost painful to watch - particularly because some people are going to think this is what NC is like.

Dan Soucek has done sooo.. much for the image of North Carolina.
Dang, that was more painful than watching the video of the pastor. She can't even put a coherent sentence together. Unfortunately I have known several women just like her throughout my life. I don't see any Christian compassion in anything that she says.
Now we know, they exist, in large numbers, these misguided disciples--don't ignore them--they can be dangerous and like bullies all over, they tend to group together, having no spines... Yes, thank you Senator!
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.
The views expressed on WataugaWatch are solely those of J.W. Williamson or individual contributors and are not necessarily shared nor endorsed by the Watauga County Democratic Party nor by any other adults of sound mind in this or any other universe.
