Michael Coren is our first entry star as Homophobe of the Week. Congratulations Michael! Michael is a contributor to the National Post and a Canadian writer and broadcaster. We think though, that he’s also a man of hate pretending to have some ‘wisdom’. In this week’s National Post Blog he states that legalizing same-sex marriage was a huge Canadian mistake. He deflects the obvious conclusion that he’s a homophobe by preemptively stating, ‘although this is a valid and vital debate about social policy, anyone critiquing the status quo is likely to be marginalized as hateful, extreme or simply mad. Social conservatives aren’t just wrong, they’re evil.’  He says it is valid to argue such social policy, which is true, but over 60% of Canadians support this social policy, and, worldwide, countries are trending towards the same conclusion as Canadian judges and lawmakers did.

Michael Coren, in his National Post essay, speaks like a sore loser, with such statements, as “the discussion, we are told, is over. Which is what triumphalist bullies have said for centuries after they win a battle. In this case, the intention is to marginalize anyone who dares to still speak out. In other words, to silence them.” He therefore refers to the majority of smart-thinking Canadians, to a majority of legislators in Canada’s Parliament (over two different votes), to judges across the country, as triumphant bullies, when really, he’s simply a SORE LOSER. Face it Michael, you lose, we win.

Three years later, Michael is still stomping his feet, yelling, no, but what about this argument, and that argument… when really, all these arguments have been made for decades, and in the end they proved to hold no water. His continued discussion is not hateful, it’s worse. It’s stupid, juvenile, irrelevant and tiresome. I would argue each piece of what he said, but 12 Canadian courts listened to his arguments, two Canadian Parliamentary sittings listened to his arguments, and 60% of Canadians listened to his arguments and decided his thinking process was erroneous. So, I figure why should I bother. He likes hating fags and pretending it’s for the sanctity of marriage.
