    It's true that these ugly, self-righteous pronouncements are made all the time; I don't know why we should be surprised when they coincide with tragic events.

    "A man reaps what he sows" seems to me to be the same message as "karma is a bitch" which many people seem to actually believe in, the karma I mean. Ive seen that belief expressed on this board.

    In the vanilla sense of the phrase, true. But you'd really have to compare it to what else he has said to get a flavor of what reaping and sowing he may have been referring to.

    Indeed. I had a suspicion or two before this news broke. I think a lot (all?) of rabid gay-haters fall into this category.

    We need to create a worldwide culture where being LGTBQQIA is totally acceptable.

    Knowing thine enemy and acknowledging that they are not just intolerant of LGBT....LMNOP......QRSTUVWXY and Z............but that they believe it is a criminal offense punishable by death. That might be a good start.
