Why isn't it a "good place" to "attack" "the followers." Can not "they" think for themselves?

I really don't see the difference:

Rick, attacking anyone has never seemed to me to win converts to a cause or a position. It can, as with the yes on 8 ads, excite those already committed to a cause or position, but that is not what we need.

We need to cause people to rethink (or maybe think) what they "know" about gay life and gay marriage as well as the principle of equal rights. I fail to see how attacking anyone or even any institution will bring that about.

I urge you to give people the space to make the changes themselves, albeit with your help and inspiration. Have you ever been "attacked" for being gay? How well did that work?
You beat me to it Phil. Key word: attack.

I LOVE that image Rick. I've had it in my cube at work since you first posted it a few years ago.
