hence my suggestion for the infinity logo armbands. the more noise we can make,the sooner people will learn to accept us.it worked for the homosexuals,didnt it?

Worked for homosexuals?

Guess they don't have big anti gay rally's where you live. We have 'em here, with lots of church leaders turning out to speak at them.

And I live in a very LIBERAL state with regards to acceptance of gays.

(boggles my mind how so many "christains" are just so damn clueless)

I've seen some funny slogans about autism on tshirts but I can't tell if it's okay to laugh. What is funny to me might offend others.

I did like your pun with the "We're here" slogan.

Hmm... I don't recall Jesus condemning anybody (except hypocrits - by the way, he was only condemning the Jewish people who were being hypocritical; I tend to think that he would have been ok with the Jewish people that were honest about their sins, and felt remorse).

I'm not in the bible belt. My state just passed a law legalizing civil unions for same sex couples. I never knew how bigotted people were in this state (especially the minority communities!) until they all turned out to protest the bill en-masse.

Made me want to move back to New York pronto.
