With pollution at an all time high, poverty, political corruption, wars, illness, and a whole bunch of assholes running the country its good to know that the main topic of concern for a lot of religious people in this country is “the gays.”
CHRISTIAN groups have launched a furious campaign against Hollywood, claiming the Golden Globe Awards promote films with gay or “leftist” themes to serve a political agenda.
The criticism was made after Brokeback Mountain, a film about the forbidden love between gay Wyoming cowboys that stars Australian Heath Ledger, won four awards on Tuesday.
Other winners included Philip Seymour Hoffman, named Best Actor for his portrayal of the homosexual writer Truman Capote; and Felicity Huffman, the Desperate Housewives star who played a transsexual with a gay prostitute son in Transamerica.
I just don’t get it. God said love thy neighbor, Jesus loved everyone and hung out with lepers and whores, judge not lest ye be judged, etc etc. On paper the Christian religion seems to be one of love and acceptance. Do these crazies worship a different god than the rest of the Christians? I just don’t know. But what is for sure is that this is NOT NOT NOT a “Christian country.”
This nation was founded by a bunch of deists, and has freedom FROM religion as one of its tenant’s. I don’t care what god you worship, America is a place where “all men are created equal” that means gay cowboys get the same rights as anyone else, and frankly your religious views don’t mean a hill of beans.
We cant have it both ways. Everyone gets the same rights, or no one does. If you want women to be able to vote, and blacks to be able to have the same rights as whites, and land owners and non land owners both be able to vote, and the right to worship any religion you want, then gay people have to have the same rights as you. Homosexuality spans all races, genders, social classes, and religions. There are not just white gays, or black gays, or rich or poor gays. Worship anything you want, but don’t confuse your religious views with the principles this country was founded on.

While Larry thinks its not ok to show gay cowboys, he continues to show movies like Hostel, which are basicly horror porn…so graphic and horrible sexualy charged violence it ok, the tragic love story of two people is not.
