Full respect to the Homosexual and Lesbian community, God loves us all

No. His family...particularly his wife and kids watch a lot of soaps and he felt there was too much gay/lesbian content. Personally, I don't watch them, so can't really comment.
I do agree that Gay Pride should be renamed Pride or Brighton Carnival. Its served its purpose and now is nothing more than a second rate Notting Hill Carnival. Peter Tatchell and Stonewall have had their time. They succeeded in raising public awareness/consciousness about gay issues. Laws were changed. Some countries/religions will still persecute. You may never change views in parts of Africa/the Indian Sub Continent and other parts of the world. Thats something we all have to live with.
If you are comfortable with your own sexuality, then you should never have a problem with others and their private lives.

It was renamed Pride about ten years ago. The only time I ever see it referred to as Gay Pride is when someone is moaning about it on here.

God is the BOSS!

No, that's Bruce Springsteen.

i have friends who are gay,it's their choice ...

That isn't how it works...

Did you choose your height or your eye colour? If not, why would you think anyone gets to choose their sexuality?

 

[TheJasperCo]

I thought pride was one of the seven deadly sins? Maybe I was wrong.

From whence did the Big Bang come from?

A little bang

 

[El Presidente]

Well let's be honest,you are right,you are born that way,however i am talking about those that choose,sorry i was wrong..

Really? Do you honestly think that you or I would wake up one morning and think "What should I choose today for breakfast, porridge, Weetabix or COCK?"

Depends whether you follow the teachings of Christianity or not, I suppose.

I personally don't.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

This is what "Pride" means to me.

"pride" in the 7 deadly sins is "hubris" in greek and is more getting at arrogance and thinking of yourself as superior to those around you...with excessive admiration of yourself

i don't think it takes a christian to think that these are unhelpful qualities

One of the little known FACTS about gay pride is the number of assaults on 'straight' people in the environs of Brighton by gay men in a role reversal of gay bashing

Er.... that's not a fact.

I'm looking forward to the numbers too ....

 

[Trufflehound]

Humility > Pride

I'd suggest tolerance of and respect for others wins out over both.

Precious little of either of those on NSC.

All I was saying is that the concept of the "seven deadly sins" is a Christian one.

EDIT: Proverbs 6:16-19, apparently.

Ring Sussex & BT Police and ask them using the freedom of information act

Hang on, I thought it was a FACT? Surely results have been published? If not, why post such hatred rubbish?

 

[Danny-Boy]

Pride is for everyone (apart from bigots).

I'm proud to be labelled a bigot. With the knowledge that my body parts are only used as designed by God. And not as "adapted" (often with artificial stimulants) by a community who have branded themselves "happy".

 

[Danny-Boy]

Er.... that's not a fact.

Oh yes it is.. and also at football games. I have already testified to that. And it was long before your "Pride".

Meanwhile, the rest of civilization are coming to terms with everyone isn't the same as themselves, and sexuality isn't a choice. When was the last time to looked beyond your net-curtains?
