So, the other 90% is, what, too uneducated to "get it"?

The comparison I'm making, and that you're ignoring, is that... if we're to follow God's Laws, as the Republicans say we should... then, in so much as that Christian beliefs dictate that ALL lives are created by God, therefore ALL lives should be respected.

It should not be a "pick and choose" situation.

It makes me sick whenever liberals actually blame the death of victims like Matthew Shepard, who was brutally killed by thugs, on conservative Republicans.
Certainly the entire Republican Party didn't beat and torture and leave Matthew Shepard for dead, but their determination to block Anti-Hate Crime laws... which would PROTECT gays and lesbians from such brutality... makes them complicit in his murder.

Any lawmaker who doesn't work to stop crime, might as well say they condone it.

If guys like Rick Santorum (one of the Golden Boys of the Republican Party) had their way, we would be.
