Kirk Cameron told Piers Morgan that homosexual marriage is “destructive” and “detrimental” to society. That’s like chum in the water for the media sharks. Fresh from their Limbaugh maiming, they’re seeking the easy prey of avowed Christian and former teen star Cameron.
The media is freaking out and comparing the comments by the former teen pop star and current Christian media star to recent comments by Rush Limbaugh. Literally, hundreds of news stories and columns have been written in the past few hours about Cameron’s statements.
So now just espousing the commonly held beliefs of Christianity is something that must be driven from society. Punsihed, even if you listen to E! which is covering this story like it’s the OJ Simpson trial. (Except they actually liked OJ)
E! Online openly compares the two for their comments and is sorry to report that Cameron can’t be punished as badly as Limbaugh.
They say, “Sorry, dittoheads. Limbaugh’s got a lot more to lose than Cameron, who as a long-established independent minister and filmmaker has little that can be taken away by the mainstream.”
Little that can be taken away by the mainstream? Let’s examine that for a second. First, is that how this county works? Someone talks about their religion in public and something must be taken away from them as a punishment? Really? Talk about intolerance.
Also, it seems to me that we have to wonder what E!’s definition of “mainstream” is. Everywhere that gay marriage has been up for a vote, it’s been defeated. Doesn’t that mean the “mainstream” actually agrees with Kirk Cameron.
And now, if you’re going to think of the Hall of Shame that makes up the gallery of former teen stars, is it really Kirk Cameron that deserves media scrutiny and ire?
And check out this intentional nastiness. At the end of their piece E! notes that hey, Kirk Cameron’s birthday is on Oct. 12, which they the 14th anniversary of the death of gay hate-crime victim Matthew Shepard.
Whether or not Matthew Shepard’s death was a hate crime is questionable. But to compare Kirk Cameron to a murderer is unconscionable.
This is the way the culture is being led, folks. First they tell you, you’re not the mainstream. Then they criminalize being outside the mainstream. And then they punish you for being outside the mainstream.
Note to E!: Stick with your Lindsey Lohan profiles.

Kirk is 100% right. I heard his comment this morning on "The View" which is so liberal and sick. Elizabeth, the so-called 'token conservative' was awful to him. Our country is on a down hill slide, and getting faster and faster, and we will be at the bottom before we know it.

I hope Kirk can stand the onslaught–even his former TV "dad" and "sister" have jumped on the bandwagon. You'd think he called for mass murder or something the way they have come down on him…..not surprising though. Pray for him and his family…..it's a dangerous world out there for devout and courageous Christians.

Too bad they don't seem to know the anniversary of the death of 12 year old Jesse Durkhiser, brutalized by two homosexual predators.

The roots of the "mainstream" idea is government school. Kids are intentionally left to form pecking orders and cliques and kids quickly learn to be like all their peers or be ostracized as weird, etc. This is deliberate, a decivilizing process that conditions people to act like cattle, fearing what is "outside" what "most people" (or what they are told "most people") think/do. It is animal training for a population of cattle…and now they openly talk about fearing the "extreme", the "fringe". Think Christ was outside the "mainstream"? Was He extreme?

I like Kirk Cameron. May God bless him.

Kirk is not the new Rush. Rush has Never said he was a Christian to my knowledge. Kirk wears it on his sleeve. Kirk and Rush can both say what they want, but there may be consequences.

This just proves that "freedom of speech" and 'following ones conscience' is only allowed for Politically correct people.
If you don't agree with the 'agenda' you get attacked.

What is it with the liberal game of setting up Christians for ridicule. If a Christian follows the teachings of Jesus and the bible what do they think they are going to say. Yeah, want my child to go down the road to hell by following their homosexual desires. We are all given crosses to bear. Some people have sexual crosses. God help them to overcome and bear them with dignity. I can't wait for Kirks movie!
