While the movie may exagerate it to make a point, it is amazing to see the transformation, in just the last 20 years, of how gays are perceived .

Good point. Seeing that movie now it's hard to believe people were so ignorant just a short time ago.

Well if you think about it, the movie was made in 1993 - so ~20 years ago.

~ 20 years before 1993, I would suggest that you would be hard pressed to find a oscar nominated movie with a black man in one of the lead roles.

The times they are a changin'.

I admit when I'm wrong. However, I'm not wrong when you take something I said and twist it into something I have not and then act like I"m wrong. I'm still waiting for one of you guys so show me where the christians have united together (like they did for this chick-fila event) and support a worthy cause such as helping homeless or the needy. Any such event ever arranged? I'll be waiting.

I think the point was.(and still is) The churches can collectively get together to send their congregation down to chick-fila to support a bigot, yet they can't do the same for the homeless and needy?
