Andrew Sullivan
In academia, left-liberalism is so entrenched its advocates' debating skills have gone rusty. When you've been talking to yourself for decades and imposing speech codes on everyone else, your ability to argue coherently - let alone entertainingly - inevitably wanes.

I think sex is completely absurdly demonized in our culture. But in the end, however much sex you want to have, with however many people in how many ways, to be loved and to love is what human beings really want.
Andrew Sullivan
What I love about the Internet and what I try to do on the issues is insist upon the ability to have bad taste if one wants.
Andrew Sullivan
For me, God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit have always been my closest friends in this journey.
