Oh The Irony

What could be better than talking about the anti-gay marriage lobby?

It seems they are feeling 'demonised' and have pulled out of an upcoming public debate being planned in Hobart. Everyone's favourite Masters of Systemic Fuckery (well mine anyway) - Family First, The Australian Christian Lobby and the Liberal Party - have apparently decided that the pro-gay movement won't give them a fair hearing. In their own words (apparently) it seems that they are being painted as beloning to "gay hate groups". What isn't fair about this assessment isn't entirely clear to me, but hey. Maybe that's just me.

But really - poor Christians, they don't get listened to, have their views and standpoints twisted, and are being demonised by other social groups.

Give it another few hundred years and perhaps I'll feel some sympathy for them. Maybe. For now, it just all seems so deliciously ironic.
