Yeah, but it's PART OF THEIR BOOK.SpectacularWebHead said:
It's 'the word of god'.
Try as they might, 'good Christians' are going AGAINST god when they don't stone to death that jerk-off neighbor who worked on The Sabbath.
Being an LGBT Christian just means you're illiterate.
It's happened to me often enough for it to get a mention. I don't know how things are over there, but here, in Serbia, it's like that. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.Luke Gomez said:
The question is why would you feel inferior just because someone else is proud of who they are (be it gay , straight or bi).GameMaNiAC said:
Just be proud of yourself.
Just go into the streets and yell "I am straight and I am proud". That or sing Lady Gaga's "Born this way".
I am going wayyyyy of-topic now (nomming of oreo's as i post )
To be honest, I've never EVER eaten Oreo in my whole life. For no reason. Anyway... Kraft is a FOOD COMPANY. How could anyone boycott a freakin' food company because they support homosexuals?
These pepole aren't just bigots, they're complete morons. Rant over, thank you.

That's what im wonderingBolwing said:
because this seems like it would be genuinly hard to do for someone as big as Kraft

it would be funny if sysco said something similar. I think at that point they would genuinely starve
1. that cookie does look awesome.
2. even if they were making it, the outrage i would show is how everyone is fucking pandering to gay people. Since when did all gay people like rainbows? Since when did they all like unicorns? Since when did all of them wish to get married in a comic book or married at all?
Its starting to piss me off because people are not trying to get us to accept homosexuality as a person choice he or she has the right to choose, they are trying to make us accept that the stereotype of gay people, who go to parades wearing this that make you ashamed of the human race and will actually hurt there cause because parents dont want to guys in leather and chains being exposed infront of young kids, which is a bullshit move because most gay people....do not act 'gay'. they act normal because: A; they have common sense and decency and B;they dont want to draw negative attention.
Its just fucking pandering at this point, and worst of all, its negative pandering only because they are all hopping on the bandwagon.

Couldn't this be more accurately described as 'Facebook' outrage? The vast majority of people with views resembling Janice's 'God made us to be man and women not gay' are barely even aware of the rest of the Internet's existence, and even less likely to know how to express their 'righteous outrage' through it.
I can understand the protests at the politicisation of a snack food, but as the article stated, those complaints were few and far between, at least relatively.

So I turned to the interwebs and it seems that Serbia has had issues with LGBT issues, even so far as to be considered an anti-gay culture. Hell you're medical textbooks still classify homosexuality as a disorder. You may think the problem is gay people "rubbing it in your face" but what you're saying is a throwback line for every person who has ever tried to rationalize their dislike of gay people.GameMaNiAC said:
I'm sure Serbia overall is a lovely country, but maybe the problem is you.
I don't dislike gay people. I dislike making such a big deal out of it. That is simply it.Luke Gomez said:
I personally know a few gay people and they seem fine to me.
I can't speak for all my countrymen, but this is what I think.
That's just the thing. I don't want to go out into the street and yell that I'm proud of being straight. I see no point. I see no point in gay people doing it, either.D Moness said:
If I do it I'll feel as if I'm discriminating people who are gay, and they'll probably feel like that as well.
And if they do it, it tends to sound like they try to alienate me. Why can't we just simply accept our sexuality and not make a big deal out of it?
I've pretty much jumped ship for Newman-Os, myself, but still, good for the Oreo people.
As for the haters: fuck 'em. That's it.

Probably because, hey, it is a big deal. Gay people have come a long way, but they still can't get married in most places. They're still casually denied thousands of rights that straight people take for granted. And substantial chunks of the population--including politicians--still insist that they're sick or evil or whatever (and therefore it's okay to fire them from their jobs and discriminate against them and beat them up and stuff).GameMaNiAC said:
Man people really need to pick their battles.
There are harder and more important things going on in your lives, or if this is the most important issue that's ever faced someone- the one that they really dig their heels in for, then those motherfuckers have had seem pretty easy lives so far.
