Dan Savage apologizes for remarks

Openly gay sex columnist Dan Savage apologized for using profanity in characterizing a walkout by some high school journalists who were upset by a speech in which Savage criticized Bible-based justifications for hatred and bullying of LGBT people. Savage later said he shouldn’t have called the protesters names, but rejected charges that he engaged in an anti-Christian tirade. 

“I did not attack Christianity. I attacked hypocrisy. My remarks can only be read as an attack on all Christians if you believe that all Christians are hypocrites. Which I don't believe,” Savage wrote.
