Olberman/Savage talk "Book of Mormon," Gay Marriage, ExGays

Post by _Daniel2 »

Wow... who would have thought one journalistic newscast could have so much banter about all the topics I'm most passionate about discussing on Mormon chat boards?!

Dan Savage is a gay national sex columnist, gay activist, and the creator of the hugely successful "It Gets Better" Campaign. Apparently, Dan and Keith Olberman ran into each other at "The Book of Mormon Musical" in NY last Saturday evening.

In this clip, they discuss their reaction to the muscial, Mormonism, closeted and religious gays/ex-gays, and the passage of civil marriage equality in NY last Friday.

Well worth the watch!: http://youtu.be/mkpx8QwlWX4

When he starts talking about "homosexuality is a choice," how it's really gay people choosing to be straight and resenting those who don't, all I could think of was Wade.

Good video.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.
