Well done you. What do you think? Refs might be human too, and subject to the same crap we all deal with? Yeah, it's rigged for sure.Quote:

LGBT is a completely corporate thing, and apart from anything else I don’t think LGB and T naturally go together, as one is about sexual preference the other is about personal identity and the assumption of them being natural allies, especially when the trans lobby has over reached massively to the point where it’s ok with men in wigs bullying and harassing same sex attracted women for not wanting to suck their girl dick is rather ridiculous anyway.
But the thing is, religious people nor religious institutions in my view have to be ok with gay or trans people…I mean who cares. The idea that gay or trans people are so insecure that they need validation from everyone is kind of insulting.
And as long as they don’t insist that the rest of us shouldn’t tolerate it….to repeat who cares??
while I would express it differently I'm not a million miles way from what you say hereQuote:

I’m talking generally about the religious and religious institutions.Quote:

Now this didn’t happen at my nephews school, but there were protests about this both by Christians and Muslims with loud and obnoxious chanting and placards outside schools….which is unnecessarily disruptive and is an attempt to force their views onto others
Same with Muslim protests over a school teacher showing an image of Mohammed or these kids who had defaced a Quran that belonged to them (and the police got involved) to the extent of a Labour MP suggesting in parliament that there should be a law against desecration to protect religious sensitivity (basically a blasphemy law)
No fuck off, your religious sensibilities don’t mean you get to demand what the rest of us do
On the one hand it's a classic case of a certain religion not assimilating. On the other hand the gay armbands shouldn't be worn.
I'm as conflicted as the libtards on this.
I’m ecumenical in terms of religious freedom and toleration. Be it Christian or Muslim, as long as you don’t proselytise believe what you like (though of course with the latter if those beliefs include murdering your daughter for the sake of honour or setting up grooming gangs that’s another matter, although these things tend to be more cultural than religious)Quote:
