Wade never seemed to understand why trolling on a gay internet board and inviting the posters to his site which put homosexuality in the same category as bestiality, pedophilia, and necrophilia would offend people. At least in this regard, the man appears to be completely clueless about normal social interaction, and what people perceive as offensive.

And yes, I've never met another man anywhere - in real life or on the internet - who is as obsessed with homosexuality as Brother Englund appears to be. I once asked my boyfriend and another man we were socializing with if, if they opposed homosexuality, would they consider creating a website devoted to "helping" gays, and visit gay internet boards to try and get visitors to the site. They looked at me as if I were insane. Most men - even if they oppose homosexuality - have zero interest in getting so involved in dealing with it.

You know, all of this reminds me of the rather murky circumstances surrounding Wade's very mysterious, self-imposed Court of Love. He said that he offered himself up to be "dealt with" by the Judges in Israel, and he mentioned that whatever it was that he was "doing" was sinful insofar as it "affected others."

This is vintage Englund. First, he delivers a cheap shot at the appearance of the protesters ("odd-looking characters"), then he goes on to make a completely nonsensical accusation---


Having actually lived in homosexual communities like Santa Monica and Hollywood, I think most anyone would agree would that they are often odd looking characters.

Anyone who puts on this outfit has no right to pass judgement on others reference how they look:


Maybe if such an outfit were worn in public as opposed to an esoteric rite. Hence, I shall continue to pass judgement. There are many odd looking (dressed or not, and made up) gays whevever I've seen them gather.

Oh, so as long as you wearing your nylons in private we shouldn't make fun of you. I get it. It's not weird if you wear your funny outfits INSIDE. *rolling eyes*

Right you are! There are so many spread across the country: San Bernardino, Wasilla, Orem, Macon, Dubuque. Hope we don't build any Temples there to be protested.

Evidently a majority of the voters in CA and AZ don't agree with this statement.


Isn't that the point though?
Just because they don't agree with my lifestyle & choices, they will take my rights away?
They will decide for me to have a child, they will decide which gender I may marry, my right to bear arms ?
Majority doesn't rule in this country, their votes mean nothing, if it curtails basic human freedoms.

I have a Question here: Why isn't Wade Englund Married to a Woman?

Who knows? I imagine there must be a very compelling reason for an LDS man in his fifties to resist the pressure to marry in the LDS church.
