Oklahoma House Rep. Sally Kern made an Easter Sunday appearance on KFOR-TV’s “Flash Point” to face off with an openly gay pastor, elaborating on her recent leaked speech and defending her views.
A spirited theological and political debate ensued between Rep. Kern, host Kevin Ogle, panelists Burns Hargis and Mike Turpen, and Dr. Scott Jones of Oklahoma City’s Cathedral of Hope.
“I was speaking to a group of Republicans; grassroots Republicans,” Kern explained of the original speech, which gained worldwide attention after posted on the Internet by the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, “and I was talking about the homosexual agenda, and how they are out there putting forth–funding very heavily–homosexual and pro-homosexual candidates to run against, and defeat, conservatives across the nation.
“I did talk about what I believe…scientific evidence, health evidence…proves that the homosexual lifestyle is a dangerous lifestyle. And, yes, I did compare it to being more dangerous than terrorism. And my point in doing that, gentlemen, was this: Everybody knows terrorism destroys and tears down, and that was the only analogy I was making is that the homosexual agenda, this lifestyle which is so destructive to individuals, is at the heart trying to tear down what is the bedrock foundation of our society, which is the family and traditional marriage.”
