This Heterosexual Pride Parade Could Not Have Failed Any Harder Than It Just Did

justashooter, is that you? And weren't the three hookers in a hotel room jacuzzi with you?

There's a name I haven't heard in a while. Quite the cast of characters have graced the bandwidth of VJ. Sadly most have left, they did make things interesting.

Judging by his shirt he is most likely christian.. His god says gays are bad.. Being a good christian and being tolerant of gays is hypocritical.

A good Christian at a pride parade may want to avoid the subject of hypocrisy.

Cavan SieczkowskiSenior Editor, Content Strategy, The Huffington Post [bunch o stuff snipped]

Huh? Please speak English.

Nobody showed up to the parade. How is this the reporter's fault?

[Darnell 8,478]

Every time I go to Philippines I have a parade.

I like to keep at least two girls in my companionship at all times

International Playboy Style.................

what's before you and after you, in the parade?

Floats?

hawker carts on wheels?

glitter throwers?

musicians on acoustical gear ?

any sponsorship from the bars or dancing clubs?

I think yer missing a revenue stream, really.

I haven't figured out how heterosexuals are feeling threatened by the gay community. If you are gay you are gay. If you are not, you are not. What is the big deal?

i always thought it was 'local presence' , where a homosexual couple bought a property in a heterosexual dominated enclave. This happens, and all sorts of righteous indignation occurs, a strange form of gentrification.

Oh well.

[Darnell 8,478]

Did it say man will put them to death? Is it your job? Your Christ like actions should persuade people to follow in the steps of Christianity and understand that Jesus is the light, they dissuade them. Jesus did not turn away ANYONE. He spoke to anyone who would listen.

People easily get The God and The Jesus confused - I say don't sweat this, for the nonce.

What does gentrification have to do with the topic at hand?

the buying and renovation of houses and stores in deteriorated urban neighborhoods by upper- or middle-income families or individuals, thus improving property values but often displacing low-income families and small businesses.

Welcome to the party Darnell, late and causing confusion. Please clarify your statement.

[Darnell 8,478]

I was around some gay men the other day, and not one even flirted with me.

I was hurt.

It's sad, inna it ?

They flirts with me often, from my age 23 to yesterday.

#DarnellHandsome ! !

Maybe you can tone up a bit, also try a new wig or headpiece?

*I* would not advocate violence against a person for their beliefs, nor am I a christian. But to your original question - if not the reader of the content then for whom would that be written for? We are getting into the realm of ridiculousness here if we can interpret away a clearly stated quote like that one.

No joke. These books are supposed to be the word of God. How can followers pretend not to be held to the word? The truth is, when specifically addressing homosexuality, the bible and Koran suggest executing said homosexuals. And lots of other ridiculous things. Can we throw them away now and start over?

The bible does not tell humans in particular to do so. People should let God do what he wants to when he wants to do it. Why is everyone so bent out on taking the bible into their own hands instead of letting God do what he wants to do? If he hasn't done anything thus far, great.

I like the secular approach, really -

What's been working in Iran? Homosexuality is declared a mental illness, and the fellas get a special treatment, turning them into the Ladies.

Love thy neighbor.

Love thy neighbor.

Again, when specifically addressing homosexuality, the punishment is death. Unless we're ready to choose which of gods word needs to be phased out. That would be interesting to watch.

Homosexuality isn't exclusive in this. When it comes to death in the bible there are a few things that warrant the death penalty.
