Re: RAT Re: Christian Right and Gay Rights

You're right, Sabrina.  It's hard, however, to let hateful rhetoric pass me 
by, so I said something.  It's a character flaw.  There ya go.  I also felt 
that it was marginally relevant because as theatre artists, we know that 
words are part of our artistic tool kit.  They are extremely powerful.  We 
ought to be careful how we use them, on-stage and off.
