So it's the responsibility of the group to search you out and prove to you that they're not fruits?

so if that sounds bombastic I don't mean it to be but I'm just alittle surprised that someone would justify stereotypes based on a...parade.
Again, it's like going to a Girls Gone Wild event and thinking all girls are wild, booze fueled skanks and then making decisions based on that.
Given the law of averages you probably know a gay person or two who isn't wearing chaps, a feather boa and dancing down the street.
By your reasoning you have to prove to me that you're not a abortion clinic bombing, bible thumper. But I know you and thus know you're not. Ditto for ML. Therefor my impression of Evangelicals has mollified.
Maybe both sides need to search out each other more. I apologize for the tone. It's alittle much but I can't think of a way to pick it apart right now and soften.
