Tammy Faye on gay marriage
The cult of the ex-Mrs. Jim Bakker has always baffled me.
Daniel A. Kusner Dallas Voice:
In her new book, I Will Survive … And You Will, Too! Tammy Faye Messner offers T-shirt-like slogans about overcoming hardships. These cutesy little tidbits are called “Tammy-isms,” which match her baby-voiced approach to life. After a recent phone interview with the former Queen of the Electric Church, one Tammy-ism seemed to ring especially true: “People are like tea bags — if you want to find out what’s inside them, just drop them in hot water.”
“I don’t think there should be gay marriages. I think that marriage is between a husband and wife. I think the Bible decided that many years ago. I feel sorry for the gay people, but I think that there can never really be a marriage between gay people. That’s just my opinion and a billion other people’s,” she says.
Just imagine having the nerve to disagree with ‘billions’ of people.
