You’re Likable Enough, Gay People

[footfootfoot]

I just got a message from God, he told us to take your moral inventory. It's nothing personal, strictly a formality. We'll be over in about 20 minutes to make sure you are all right in the eyes of God. Mkay?

By the way, just in case, not that I think we'll need them, but is there a large pile of grapefruit sized stones in walking distance to your house, or should we bring our own?


I still don't get why anyone cares who someone is boinking as long as it doesn't involve kids or scare the livestock.

I don't understand why religious people don't think, "God made gay people, who am I to judge?"

[jinx]

Because they don't believe that, they think it's a choice and blame it on free will.

Riiiight, you're one to talk Jesus.
That sweet and innocent act ain't fooling no one, Mr. Man.

How do religious people think?

Huh. Yeah. That guy thinks he is the symbol of all that is pure and good, Mr High and Mighty Man. We see right through you, HLJ. :p

I have always been puzzled that something that disgusts many people (esp men) is considered a prime lifestyle choice by the same.

On the one hand they act like being gay is fun and exciting and groovy and fantastic, and only their love for Christ stops them from sinning in this way. On the other hand they feel disturbed by it on a visceral level. I guess it proves their sanctity in some odd cyclical argument. Except that does not explain gay Christians. Or (usually) men who fight their homosexual impulses all through their lives.

Because they are not properly gay. (I know it isn't as funny in British as it is in American)

[DanaC]

lol. I love that show.

The guy playing the judge is brilliant. Not in that sketch obviously...but elsewhere

[smoothmoniker]

what show is it?

[footfootfoot]

Man stroke woman. Really brilliant, off the air, all over youtube. I think the guy who produced it was also the producer for Gervais's "The Office."

[DanaC]

The cast and production team on ManStrokeWoman are all involved in a bunch of other projects. There's like three or four ensemble groups, or regular working partners, who mingle and work on each others' projects. Nathan Barley, No Heroics, Garth Marenghi, Dean Lerner's show etc. Plus a whole bunch of others i can't think of.

Well, one of the first things is we assume fairness comes from the Divine, and that practicing fairness would be godly.

The idea that homosexuals may not only enter into a committed relationship, but also have that commitment have status under law and under a church too, is one that strikes me as fair. Homosexuals damage far fewer marriages than heterosexuals do. Infidelity presents far more dealbreakings than fellatio does.

Homos married up, whether it is formally called "marriage" just now or not, in effect means homosexuals acting, with the blessing of law, like hets. Who's got a problem?
