@Kim: The point, I think, is that Kraft has realized there are more gays and people who have gay friends than there are people who are really offended.

As to rainbows... The rainbow wasn't just for Noah, you know. Noah was the one who saw it, but it was directed at all of humanity. And sometimes, God's promises mean more to the people that sometimes feel like no one down here is making them any promises, or keeping them.

And furthermore:
1. Your daughter can pray all she wants, she just can't do it in a way that forcibly involves other people.
2. If she's Christian, your daughter shouldn't be praying in public in the first place. Go read Matthew 6, and this time don't make excuses for how it doesn't apply to us. The instruction not to pray in public, but in private only, is not conditional in some way on whether you're sincere; it's an instruction not to do a thing which is *often* insincere, and which other people will likely take that way, and which might be a temptation to insincerity.

Calm down, stop worrying. God loves you, and God loving other people too is not a threat to this. God's love is not in short supply. We will not run out.

@just who i am: Well, that's easy to answer. See, "agree" is what you do to statements, like "the sun is blue" or "the moon is made of cheese". People who use emotionally laden phrases like "homosexual lifestyle", and instead of saying "disapprove", use weasel words like "agree", are doing so because the position they are unwilling to really express is, in fact, a bigoted one.

Similarly, your disingenuous misrepresentation of the "phobia" suffix is pretty sleazy. When someone says that 3M has a spray that makes things hydrophobic, no one thinks they mean "afraid of water". No one's saying you're afraid; they're saying you're averse to, and you seem to be pretty clearly supporting that evaluation.

Say what you mean, don't use weasel words, don't play word games, and you'll find a lot fewer people call you names.
