(45,319 posts)as a good person, a preacher who openly attack LGBT people and holds international anti equality conferences with Family Research Council and NOM invited.
So the context in which I read your defenses of a banned poster who, like you, felt religious people should be free to shout invective at LGBT people while they themselves remain protected from any criticism or punishment no matter how vile their tirades become.
You are a person who thinks hate speech is acceptable if it streams out of the right clergy and toward the right minorities.
So according to you, DU is both exactly like an R rated movie and also exactly like a Catholic Church because you argue that folks should be able to use this word you like so much but also that folks should be able to celebrate anti gay hate speakers out of 'respect for religion'.
So what context do you want for DU? Is this an R rated night club? If so your Pope promoting is far out of line dear. Is this more like a Church? If so, this verbiage you advocate here is not appropriate for the context.
What you want is to have it all ways, you get to praise the Pope and use insulting language.
All of this is a towering hypocrisy when done on behalf of NYC_SKP who opposed free expression and openly claimed that those who use provocative and insulting speech should expect retribution. He wanted it both ways too. Just like you. One day it is 'respect for the sacred' then next 'I get to use slurs against people'.
