It’s not that you need to give weight to anything that comes out of the men like Gordon Klingenschmitt, a former Navy chaplain. But, appearing on the syndicated The David Pakman Show, Klingenschmitt does suggest that “open homosexuality will be forced upon our military against their will,” adding that “many of the Christian soldiers, many of the chaplains, will be under fire for their views that homosexuality is a sin.”
He then goes on to cite junk data about how all these soldiers are going to start quitting the military, but given that the rules of The Klingenschmitt Drinking Game require you to take a shot each time he says something untrue, I was wasted by the time he got around to how repealing DADT will “cost the blessing of God,” and how his hero George Washington’s tolerance of slavery was just a “sign of the times.”
UPDATE: Last month, we learn via RWW, Klingenschmitt admitted to performing an exorcism on a lesbian rape victim.

Anytime, I hear someone start off with that many religious things, I click off. I really don’t need to hear anything else.

Where in the Bible does it say Thou Shalt Not Ogle?

Why is it all the homophobes that speak publicly about their opposition to LGBT issues are the guys whom no gay guy would ever have sex with?
McMike
OMG! This guy is totally lying!!! George Washington not only did NOT kick out homosexuals but hired an out and proud homosexual to train our troops. It is unreal how much these homophobes lie. I Googled this and it all stems from a solider being charged with sodomy with another soldier while at the same time being charged with perjury.
America SUCKS.

In addition to believing that ho-mo-sex-you-al-i-ty is caused by demonic possession, GK has also said that gay men are “women”.
Confused much?

Ummm, not to perpetuate any stereotypes, but the only way this guy could possibly look any gayer himself is someone stapled a Liberace head-shot to his forehead and he jumped up and down while squealing “Barbra! I’m your biggest fan!”
It would be funny if it weren’t so damn sad. Nearly every one of the gays’ “Christian” opponents is clearly fighting their own homosexual urges by demonizing the gay community and it’s getting REAL old. If I had the money I’d hire a cadre of hot gay spies to infiltrate their organizations, seduce them, and get the evidence on video. Better the money go for that than funding the HRC.

@Kev C: Well, it DOES say “thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s […] ass.”
