MLK Jr was a revolutionary. He fought for justice and did a lot to achieve it. He was one of the most progressive leaders of our time. He was probably homophobic given his background but that's an assumption on my part. If he was homophobic, it does not take away from progressive changes he brought the United States. In comparison to the religious right of today, who are homophobic in an age where we know it's not a choice, are reactionary to the point of actively trying to make the country dumber, and are blatant hypocrites in their personal lives.

So what exactly are YOU trying to say?
MLK was a revolutionary/homophobe? Religious leaders today are simply homophobe-unvisionaries making people dumber? I mean like Al Sharpton.
Do you have a laser-like visionary view of the future?
Maybe like Seabass you believe we would be space bound already if it weren't for religious bigots like MLK?
