Do Right-Wing Conservative Christians have gay children?

Question

...and, if so, how do they dispose of them?

Oh...trust me....I've dealt with "Julia" before.
She compares gay people with rapists and murderers. Goes to show you what kind of brain...or lack thereof...she has been 'blessed' with.

By the way..."Julia" hasn't asked a question in over 2 months.
She's scared to.

Answer 1

The two most famous examples are Dick Cheney and Alan Keyes, each of whom has a very outspoken and politically active lesbian daughter, Mary Cheney, and Maya Keyes, respectively.

Before 2004, Mary was very active for GLBT rights. But she was paid a lot of money during the 2004 elections to work on her dad's campaign, as long as she kept quiet and out of the media... blowing what many GLBT people saw as a perfect platform to speak out. This site was a response to her silence:

Personally, I would have LOVED to trade places with her at that time, and spoken out... but we don't know all the personal circumstances of her silence at that time... family stuff, I'm sure.

She recently put out an autobiography titled Now It's My Turn, which, unfortunately, isn't doing very well. I plan to get it though.

Fewer people are aware of Alan and Maya Keyes.

In 2004, Alan ran for an open senate seat in my home state of Illinois, and was soundly thrashed by Barack Obama.

During the campaign, not long after Alan stated publicly that all homosexuals were guilty of "selfish hedonism," his daughter held a press conference to come out against her father's politics, and come out of the closet.

Her father immediately disowned her, leaving her unemployed and homeless.

Answer 2

One way or another Cheney is a hypocrite.

P.S. To Julia: You're not showing respect to gay people by intentionally seeking them out for target practice on a daily basis at YA.

Answer 3

No of course they don't!! How could you suggest such a thing? Their children are blessed with the ability to CHOOSE to be gay.

Once they have rebelled against their parents, they get sent to I WANNA B STRAYT camp. There, they get the Fire and Brimstone lectures along with Bible classes on Leviticus and St Paul's Letters to the Romans/Corinthians (and wherever else). The little blighters are shellshocked into recognising that they don't want to go to hell after all.

Turning out parade (known as HUMILITY) involves pairing off with a member of the opposite sex; to whom they get married.

They live happily ever after breeding lots of strayt children, thanking The Lord their God for delivering them their trespasses.

A Happy Ending

Amen.

Answer 4

Gay is most likely caused by hormones during the pregnancy. I have spoken to and known many gay people. No one has ever told me that they conciously chose to be gay. Christians are humans who procreate just like anyone else. A certain percentage of all children born will be gay.

Answer 5

Dick Cheney's daughter is a lesbian.

The Vice President is living proof that most of us are perfectly capable of showing love, dignity, and respect toward gay people -- while at the same time disagreeing with much of their political and social agenda.

Most people are easily capable of making this simple distinction. Too bad a lot of gay people aren't capable of it.

Answer 6

Do Right Wing Conservative Christians have sex? Of course they have children and most accept them unconditionally .. In Indiana most of the gay men I've met have come from Pentacostal backgrounds .. personally I came from a very strict and stodgie Southern Baptist background ..

Answer 7

I'm sure they do. People can't avoid being gay. It's chromosonal. They don't dispose of them, they just try and convince them not to be gay. But it's impossible. If in fact their child chooses not to be gay later, they will be forever living a lie.

Answer 8

Vice President Dick Cheney might be able to help you with that one, as his daughter Mary is a lesbian. She served as one of her father's top campaign aides and closest confidantes during the first Bush-Cheney run and became director of vice presidential operations during their successful reelection bid in 2003. But "dispose" of her? I don't think he'd even consider it. He might even describe her as indispensable.

Answer 9

Yes they do. There are even famous examples like Phyllis Shafley's son.

Usually they try to use guilt, shame, and fradulent fundamentalist religion to keep them in the closet. When they escape anyway they either accept them (but "not their behavior") or they disown them.
