Never missing a chance to turn an attempt to promote tolerance and diversity into an opportunity to promote intolerance and bigotry, Christian nutjob group Focus on the Family is currently protecting America's future by attacking a SpongeBob SquarePants video as "pro-gay propaganda."

But conservatives say it sees the video as a cunning attempt to promote homosexuality.

They point to the fact that the WAFF is linked to a pledge being promoted by some liberal groups which includes a recognition of tolerance of sexual identity.

"We see the video as an insidious means by which the organisation is manipulating and potentially brainwashing kids," Paul Batura, a spokesman for Focus on the Family, told the New York Times.

Note how "tolerance" is now equated with being pro-gay. If they are anti-tolerance, what are they? Pro-discrimination, that's what. And discrimination is discrimination, whether it's against gays, blacks, jews, or anyone else.

The fact that this is being reported in the foreign press is just humiliating.
