good grief.

She didn't say anything that isn't said over Apostolic pulpits on a weekly basis, Ferd.......with the exception of one item......in bold...
According to the Bay Area Reporter:[14]
"She said she was tired of Christians hiding behind the cross. 'When they stop Prop 8 and force priests at gunpoint to marry gays, it will be the downfall of civilization and Jesus will come back,' she said.Loud gasps were heard from the audience. Many fans walked out. 'I believe the Bible is the word of God,' Shocked continued....In response to audience reaction, Shocked offered a Spanish prayer that 'God loves you. God loves us. God loves us all everywhere.' Later, in English, she said: 'God bless us everyone.' Many fans questioned the singer out loud: 'What are you saying?' With a broad smile,
Shocked said 'You are going to leave here and tell people "Michelle Shocked said God hates faggots."' That comment produced more gasps and more departures. Two-thirds of the audience had walked out by this point."
This could be taken a couple of different ways, but my interpretation is that she was concerned that people would associate her with the Phelps (no relation) bunch, but she was only speaking the same opinion that many fundamental Christians have.........
