How can you deny the facts, people? (Please read all of this. It's the full length article.)?

In my school a few weeks we had to do persuasive speeches and work with partners to be on opposite sides of the issue.

I then presented this argument this in my speech for pro-openly-gay clergy at school. I felt quite liberated.
