Base8: Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting Section is Up!
Yes, it sounds dreadfully boring. That is, until you start reading and see how many of your tax dollars are going into things like farm subsidies for some of these anti-gay people. These are the sort of people who rant and rave against “welf...
Supporters of Traditional Marriage Wish You a Merry Christmas.
True, this is the 26th, but I just discovered this so… ...
Base8: Arts, Entertainment, News & Media Section is Now Up!
Still doing your holiday shopping and taking the family out for some fun? Want to do it without giving your money to bigots who will only turn around and use it to fund anti-gay legislation? Want to find pro-equality alternatives? Base8 can help. ...
Marriage Equality Approved in Washington D.C.
Of course the anti-gays are foaming at the mouth over this but that’s par for the course. Same-sex couples won the right to marry in the nation’s capital Tuesday when the District of Columbia City Council voted 11-2 to pass a measure spons...
“Being Lectured About What Constitutes a Traditional Marriage By a Mormon…It’s a bit Like Being Scolded for Loitering By a Crack Wh*re.”
So says Betty Bowers, and I agree heartily with her. Now sit down and enjoy this reminder that subjecting human rights to “the will of the people” is not such a hot idea because your rights could easily be next on the chopping block. ...
So Are They Going to Blame This on Teh Gays?
Last year in the wake of the Proposition 8 decision the Mormon Church allegedly received packages with “white powder”. To my knowledge the powder has never been identified nor have the origin of the envelopes or the powder been identifie...
Prop 8 Backers Must Release Some Internal Records.
U.S. District Chief Judge Vaughn Walker recently ruled that the backers of Proposition 8 must turn over certain internal records, stating it was not proven that doing so would inhibit the activities of same-sex marriage opponents or lead to their har...
Glenn Beck is Certifiable.
You don’t need me to tell you why. Let him explain it to you in his own words. If Glenn Beck thinks nations run by religion are so fabulous perhaps he should move to Iran. But of course those who endorse the idea of everybody being compelled...
A slippery slope of stupidity
Excellent, but NSFW (contains some strong language). ...
Mormon Leader: Satan Gives You Teh Gay.
Elder Bruce C. Hafen’s method of demonizing LGBT individuals and disconnecting himself from reality is to deny all scientific evidence and claim gay people are just willing tools of Satan. It’s obvious, however, who the real tool is here...
Suicide Note.
Racist, Unhinged Buffoons on Parade.
In case you were unaware, today was the day the Teabaggers descended on Washington DC for their big protest march. About 60-70K attended according to ABC News*. Other events were held around the country for those middle-aged white folk who couldn&#...
Mormons Eat Their Own, Too.
Watch as one brave Mormon speaks out against discrimination and Proposition 8 during a Testimony–which turns out to be his final Testimony. (No, he didn’t commandeer the pulpit and interrupt a church service for this as it may appear). ...
Must-See Videos.
“Heat” (by the Courage Campaign) Audon Felix Garcia died in a field near Bakersfield in 2008. This heartbreaking story reminds us what is at stake with the CA Employee Free Choice Act, which Governor Schwarzeneger just vetoed. With one ye...
“Militant Atheists” vs. Militant Religionists.
I’m constantly hearing about how “militant atheists” are wreaking havoc on the world, and making it intolerable for decent, God-fearing types. Now what exactly is a “militant atheist” and how does s/he compare to a mili...
The Truth About Ex-Gay “Therapy” Exposed, Again.
Patrick McAlvey is one of the many young people victimized by the “ex-gay” industry. The APA and countless other professional organizations denounce so-called “reparative therapy” as a harmful, ineffective sham. However reli...
History Repeats Itself. Maine Anti-Gays to Hire Actors for Ads.
Unlike the pro-equality side, which has used real Maine residents (not paid actors) for their ads, the anti-gays apparently can’t find enough bigots in Maine to volunteer for their ad campaign. So just like NOM did with their Gathering Storm,...

Mormons Take Anti-Gay Crusade Across the Pond.
They’ve done it in Hawaii, California and elsewhere in the US. Now they’re doing it in the UK. Yet of course when it’s all said and done LDSinc will claim, as they did after Proposition 8, that they did nothing and their individua...
Maggie Gallagher’s Anti-Gay “Celebration”.
Maggie Gallagher speaks at NOM’s non-political, non-religious, certainly not anti-gay “Celebration” of Opposite Marriage. A few observations: *Maggie is constantly extolling the virtues of Man + Woman marriage and procreation yet...

“A Gift, from the Homophobic Culture”
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard clueless, heartless bigots say things like “how do you know you’re a lesbian if you’ve never tried sex with a man”, or “all you need is a good **** from a guy to s...
The Continuing RRRW Double Standard.
You may have heard that PZ Meyers and members of the Secular Student Alliance are taking a trip to the “Creation Museum”. The trip is still several weeks away and PZ Meyers has received a “warning letter” from the Creation M...
RRRWers and the Great Disconnect.
Michael Brown and his red-shirted goon squad has plans to surround the Charlotte Pride participants today. Oh no, it’s not to harass them but to show them how much they’re “loved”. Loved by people who want to “turn b...
More Fraud, Harassment From Anti-Gays Seeking to Eradicate Rights for Gay Couples.
This time it’s in Washington state, but they’re using the same vile tactics they’ve used in Massachusetts, Oregon, California and probably everywhere across the nation. They can’t achieve their desired outcome via honest mean...
Glenn Beck has Meltdown…Again.
This time it was over the preposterous notion that Americans should all have health care. Let’s make it simple. Disguise national healthcare as another addition to Defense, “Homeland Security” or the prison industry. That’...
David Boies: Gay Marriage and the Constitution
This is a brilliant opinion piece Proposition 8. I hated abbreviating it and recommend you read the full piece. When I got married in California in 1959 there were almost 20 states where marriage was limited to two people of different sexes and the...
The Book of Zombie.
A small, sleepy Utah town gets an undead wake-up call when all of the townspeople of Mormon faith suddenly transform into flesh-eating ghouls! Now, a group of “non-believers” unaffected by the mysterious epidemic must band together to su...
CA Same-Sex Marriage in 2010 or 2012? Tennis Anyone?
Sean Chapin nails it. Civil rights should never be put to “the will of the people”. We shouldn’t have to repeatedly beg people to allow us the rights they take for granted, and we should already have as our birthright. Disagree?...
More Mormon Marriage Meddling.
To be fair, two Christians have proposed bills as well. But the one proposed by Rep. Jason Chaffertz (R-Utah) is the worst of the three as it seeks to completely undo D.C.’s recognition of marriages performed in other states. Conservative law...
