I actually worked with Citizens for Decency in our town years ago. I did not cooperate with all they did though. I don't work with them anymore either because I don't agree with about 99% of their philosophies.
I recall more than once hearing people in that mindset (including my mother) who professed a conviction that all STD's were a punishment of God on an immoral and sexually promiscuous people. Some even wanted to stop drug companies from developing medications to slow the progression of AIDS or medications to control Herpes. I even met one fellow who had been promiscuous in his younger years and once he was converted he refused to use medication for the oral Herpes he'd contracted. He often had a sore on his mouth that looked miserable.
The people who complain about things like this claim that God will punish them if they don't speak out against it. What they can't see is that for things like this there is nothing they can do to stop it.
This doesn't surprise me but it irritates me that these people have found something else to complain about. Why can't they just worry about their own lives instead of trying to control others?
