vegetarianism = gay?

[Gothic Sponge]

The AFA (right-wing nuts) have news for us: the children's movie Shark Tale, will indoctrinate our children into homosexuality.

Because, you see, the shark isn't a blood thirsty killer, and he may display various effeminate traits like . . . vegetarianism (gasp!). Due to his sensitivity, it's obvious that he's gay, and because he doesn't die horribly, that means that DreamWorks is subtly indicating that homosexuality is okay.

And the people at the AFA have news for you: homosexuality is a sin. A horrible, horrible sin.

So, if you don't want your children to be raging queer homosexuals, the AFA recommends against taking them to see Shark Tale.

1. These people have gone way too far!!

[Neoma]

2. Who ever wrote this is a complete moron.

And creepy :scared:

[Radical Activist]

3. That's right real men are not supposed

to be sensitive and caring. They're supposed to eat meat, be strong, agressive and beat their wives! That's the Christian way! Remember those small town values!

4. The link didn't work

but didn't the right also have some sort of protest against Tella Tubbies (sp?) because the lavender one was purported to be 'gay acting'?

8. Fixed link

15. Thanks...I think,

I was originally going to paste clips of all the paragraphs that left my jaw slack but there were too many.

His speech leans toward the effiminate, he has an identity he's afraid to share with is parent, he CROSS DRESSES as a dolphin, and isn't a vicious predator. So, gay men are cowards who talk funny and dress as other than themselves? And, why can't this just be a gentler masculinity?

11. Not really...it was Tinky-Winky who purple, had a triangle on his head...

...and carried a purse, so the scary looking asexual creature must be GAY!!!!!!!

[yardwork]

13. That was our friend Jerry Falwell

He published a list of supposed gay attributes of the purple creature - all cliched stereotypes of course.

I don't know which is more offensive to gays and lesbians - being accused of trying to indoctrinate people or having ridiculous stereotypes attached to their identities.

I guess it never occurs to Jerry Falwell and his buddies that most queer people don't behave in steretypical ways and most queer people don't give a flip whether anybody else grows up to be gay or not.

They just don't care that much about you, Jerry! Figure it out!

[msgadget]

16. What posesses people like this?

Life is scary, I'll grant that, but to look so deeply for threats to morality is twisted. But, worse, to expect everyone to do without that which offends them is the opposite of the 'freedoms' I keep getting nauseated hearing about.

[yardwork]

24. Well, I think that Jerry is in it for the money

Falwell and a lot of other people figured out that if you can scare and manipulate people into believing that you have the only answer to their fears, then you can make a lot of money.

Then the mass hysteria takes over and we're really in a pickle.

[msgadget]

26. So which came first,

the televangelist or the move to the religious right?

[Us vs Them]

5. On the other hand,..

There is also something rather gay about wanting a big ol' slab of meat inside of you.

Mmmmmmmm. Man-meat that is.

[IronLionZion]

6. divorce and adultery are sins too

but that doesn't stop conservative republicans from doing them.

fish are friends, not food.

[yardwork]

7. LOL! We haven't hit rock bottom in stupidity yet!

Vegetarianism = homosexuality?

Watching a show about a shark will indoctrinate children into homosexuality?

What will it take before America has a collective belly laugh over how ridiculous this has gotten?

[Liberal Veteran]

9. And Finding Nemo was "anti-American"....

....and glorified single-parenthood.

These nutjobs will find something wrong with any popular movie that appeals to kids that doesn't have them worshiping and/or finding Jesus as the central theme to the movie.

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. Bible says: "homosexuality is an abomination" and so is eating shellfish

So when they stop eating shrimp, I'll MAYBE... maybe, not really that possible but maybe, I'll listen to what they say.... but I'm sure I'll just get annoyed and roll my eyes and wonder off, and get me some shrimp, or some crab.. mmm crab sounds good....

[Left Is Write]

12. The AFA is Don Wildmon's group. I always immediately discount

anything he and his lunatic cronies have to say.

Shades of Falwell and Tinky Winky here.

[Liberal Veteran]

14. Should we start calling this the "Pink Scare"?

Where all the whackjobs see homosexual subtext in EVERYTHING?

[msgadget]

17. I'm not familiar with him.

Does he have a large following?

[Left Is Write]

20. Oh, yes. He does.

Here's his organization:

http://www.afa.net/about.asp

He's a nutball and a homophobe.

[msgadget]

25. Wow,

TV can be offensive but one has only to turn it off. But, I'm really, really puzzling how porn in federal prison commisaries offended his tender eyes specifically.

Thanks for the link!

[Kurovski]

18. Well, I think it was Ned Flanders

who said he won't eat any vegetables over six inches.

But, as we found out the day Maude died, he eschews the meaty foot-longs too.

I think it's the obsession with gayness that is the most compelling part of any of these worries about being "indoctrinated."

If you think it's so easy to shift the focus of your sexuality, you must yourself already have some feelings that can readily be taken in that direction.

[truthpusher]

19. Forget Homosexuality, after reading that, I want to have sex with a shark!

[Gothic Sponge]

22. LOL!

Who doesn't love shark porn?

[LeftyMom]

29. My what big claspers you have!

[BrklynLiberal]

21. It is the old "He doth protest too much" syndrome...

It seems to me that people who see homosexual inferences in everything they see and read, are projecting their own inner thoughts onto what they see out there. So what conclusion would any sane person draw from these panic attacks that such people engender?
Obviously these people are the ones who are afraid of their own homosexual urges and that is why they get into such a panic about any thing that might make them have to deal with the reality about themselves.
What a bunch of ignorant, supressed, self-loathing "closeted" homosexuals. What they all need is some very prolonged therapy....and to leave the rest of alone!!!!!!
I believe it is a good rule that what we dislike the most in others is what we dislike the most in ourselves.

23. BBQ and Bud Light for Christ!

:eyes:

[Kurovski]

27. So, DS1, you've got an evil monkey

in your closet, too?!

No one believes mine is real!!

[EstimatedProphet]

28. I don't want my children to be simpletons, so no Shark Tale

I also don't want them to be retarded, so no AFA.

[curse10]

30. shit! I didn't know I was gay!

:P
