But I do think the situation shows what Ender was talking about before:
talk disrespectfully about homosexuals and you get fired
talk disrespectfully about Christianity and that is perfectly ok, no big deal.
I can't tell you the numbers times I've heard people on tv talk just as bad about Christianity as Robertson did homosexuality and no one had any trouble with it whatsoever.
These days, no-one fears the Christians. They aren't going to lose money over it. As for the LGBT community, it seems to be a far different story. Their PR machine can get pretty nasty and I'm sure they have their own lobbyists who are making fat change representing them. Everything comes down to money, unfortunately.
