    Assuming Jesus was a real person and that the story of his life isn’t merely apocryphal. There are instances of him being very human in his behaviour, in that he could be a massive cunt. Cursing a fig tree because he wanted figs and there weren’t any growing on the fig tree at the time. What did he think? That the fig tree was just being awkward

    Apparently he did the same thing with the table at the last supper, he was having trouble lifting it


    Judas turns to him and says

    “Jesus….its an inanimate fucking object”


    To which Jesus replied

    “You’re an inanimate fucking object”


    I guess the lesson in that parable, is to be careful how you talk to certain people

    It does take a special film to incorporate a quote from it into a joke or silly remark


    The line that really made me snort laugh when I first watched that film is when Colin Farrell is talking to those American tourists about getting to the top of the Tower and says “yous are a bunch of fucking elephants”

    Unsurprisingly there seems to be a very binary take on the whole rainbow flag thing

    This is where I consider what’s reductively called woke thinking to be poisonous, the need to grab at binaries. You’re either an explicit ally or you hate gay or trans people.

    Plus even if certain people do hate gay or trans people so what?. We don’t see the instances of gay bashing that we did in western countries. And people who are religiously inclined to believe the act of homosexuality is a sin, aren’t going round in small gangs targeting two blokes holding hands. This catastrophic thinking I blame on schools and the safetyism and the inclination to believe that words are violence….is going to do so much harm to people.


    I’m sure there are people who hate me for no reason (and it’s so stupid and unfair as there are so many legitimate reasons to hate me ) but I couldn’t give a fuck. I wouldn’t mind but when it comes to countries where LGBT are actively discriminated against, no footballing organisation would dare flash a rainbow armband anyway.

    Overall I’m not sure football should be getting involved in this sort of thing, but I don’t think I can be bothered getting that excised about it

    I think where I get annoyed is the curtailing of freedom of expression, or more precisely freedom of non expression

    I don’t think there should be any requirement for anyone to have to affirm anything they don’t want to

    Would I wear the rainbow armband if I was a footballer, whilst I don’t care for the whole politisation of LGBT I think on balance Id get paid too much money to give a fuck one way or the other. But unless Morsy or someone else is going round in public saying “death to faggots”. I honestly don’t get why there has to be such furore
