That shouldn't surprise you.....it's a liberal's modus operandi. Christians 
have been pressured for years to make concessions to these and other groups 
who form noisy political groups. First of all, if an issue is a moral one, 
concessions SHOULD be out - NOT even in any discussion!! Liberals want all 
opposing political groups to always concede something to them, and the 
Liberals won't give one inch. The problem often comes when what Liberals want 
given as a "concession" is MUCH more than that, and in reality is an approval 
of sin. Homosexuality is such an example.
