Apologies if it's made me extra emotional, nothing personal, I just think you're picking the wrong place to come in and say "I wonder if people are going to apologise for what they said about religion, they probably won't!"
Yeah, I understand that. I really do understand that. So maybe you'll understand why I get my back up over really crude anti-Christian bigotry?

I really admire the gay community. I think they are tremendously resilient. Remember they survived, and thrived through the AIDS plague, and all of the bigotry, torture, and indifference that made that disaster far more prolonged than it should have been. Compared to that, Orlando is nothing.
