This one needs to be filed in the “H is for hypocrite?” folder.
What is wrong with these people? Where is the ACLU? Why are they not screaming over the blatant censorship that these women’s advocacy groups are attempting?
The gay groups are not happy, either. For one thing CBS decided not to air an ad for ManCrunch.com, a gay dating service.
CBS rejected a commercial on Friday for gay dating Web site, ManCrunch, saying it didn’t meet network standards. The ad features a Packers fan and a Vikings fan taunting one another across the couch, until an accidental brush of their hands in the chip bowl sends sparks of an entirely different sort flying and (much to the discomfort of a stoic third friend watching the game with them) the two men make out. CBS deliberated almost two weeks before announcing it was rejecting the ad.
Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation President Jarrett Barrios released a statement saying that there seemed to be a “homophobic double standard” in the network’s decision…
Here’s what I think: Gay dating services have the right to advertise, Focus on the Family has the right to buy time to air their message, and CBS has the right to run the ads they want. What is the big deal? It’s not like CBS doesn’t regularly run perverted ads. It’s not like the Christians have equal time. But the gay and women’s advocacy groups want to make it, I think, so that Christians have no time at all.
Oh well. God is bigger than all the sinners put together. One day they will bow to the name of Jesus and confess that he is Lord. One day God’s glory will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea!
