The world doesn't need to hear about people's love for their imaginary friends*, but Christians don't seem to have a problem with trying to rape that into the collective consciousness.
*yes, I'm talking about God/Jesus/Allah/etc.
Christians mock gays at shocking Easter service - **NWS**

I think heterosexual pda is just as obnoxious. But you don't often see heteros swapping spit, unless they're drunk, or the couple consists of a skinny guy, and a really fat gal sitting on a bench downtown. Whereas I've seen first hand two guys sucking face downtown on the sidewalk (probably caused by some eXperimenting) and a lesbian couple making out at the front of a childrens softball game.... ugh (and this is in midwest the "bible belt" missouri). And yeah, scientologists and mormons both make me wary, but since Tom Cruise is proven to be absolutely batshit crazy, the "scientology in the news" craze has fallen by the wayside (as far as I can tell) and Mormons apparently are loudmouthed and well financed, so they'll continue battling that gay marriage law, and will continue making the news. But if either one of these "religions" had a hunky jesus contest, I'd be just as disgusted... actually, probably even more so.I don't think it's too confusing. The legal and social repression of homosexuals is backed by powerful organizations and lobbies that they view as bullshit, and so it upsets them.
The flamboyant shit is a bit much, in my book - but I won't pretend to understand what it's like to internalize your sexuality for 10, 20, 30 years. And I guess they want to slap society in the face with what they're looked down upon for. I also think it gets more attention because heterosexual PDA is more often looked past while homosexuals doing something as simple as holding hands sticks out like a sore thumb. I dunno. It doesn't appeal to me in any persuasive way, so I'm not really sure what they're shooting for in the big picture with displays like this.
If it was Scientology or Mormonism or one of the "wacky" ones, would you feel differently?

I would believe its some sort of odd celebration for the advancement homosexuality's acceptance in society. (Seriously not hating on it) Some people really are like that.Nah, they're flamboyance is something I think they picked up from the medias portrayal of homosexuals. You think having a lisp, and limp wrists, and dressing ridiculously, and making out with the same sex in public is going to garner the proper attention? It's just ignorant. (I'm not saying all homosexuals are like that, but I know quite a few who are, and they're usually the loudest, most obnoxious, and most outspoken, ugh)
Sorry, this kind of shit drives me fucking nuts.

And biblically god calls homosexuals an abomination,(i'm sorry, edit here, he calls homosexuality an abomination) so if the god of the religion that originally instituted marriage calls a homosexuality (edit) an abomination, then why are they so offended that they don't have the "right" to marry? Very confusing to me.

No, you are kinda fucking stupid. "christians" didn't take gays "right to marry" away, if we're getting technical, it's a fucking legal right, so that would involve government, yes? And we aren't allowed to make a political judgement based off religious beliefs., so what the fuck are you talking about? And they've never had the ability in the first place. Also, isn't marriage originally ordained by religion? And biblically god calls homosexuals an abomination,(i'm sorry, edit here, he calls homosexuality an abomination) so if the god of the religion that originally instituted marriage calls a homosexuality (edit) an abomination, then why are they so offended that they don't have the "right" to marry? Very confusing to me. Also, are you saying that some guy doing a headstand, and spreading his asscheeks is what happens in the showers out in cali? Hmmm... I'm glad I've never gone there. And yeah, I'm sure they're doing it for entertainment, by taking Jesus, the son of God, and making him a mockery. Last I checked, biblically, Jesus didn't hate on anybody. (of course, I don't believe the Bible tells of any encounters between Jesus and homosexuals) Why are you wasting your time trying to piece together a piss poor defense of the people in that particular video? Are you a homosexual? or are you just trying to properly rep Cali? (NORCAL, BRO! SOCAL BRO!) Who fucking cares, bro? I can tell you why I'm jumping on this, I fucking hate your state. It's unbelievable how many fucking idiots I see driving around midwest missouri, with missouri tags sporting huge NORCAL or SOCAL decals on the back of their vehicles. It's funny, I'm guessing they moved here because they couldn't afford to live in that shithole you call a state, or possibly get their vehicles legalized, or perhaps they were having breathing issues from the smog... or maybe they were nervous about something out there giving them cancer, because apparently everything can cause FUCKING CANCER IN CALIFORNIA! Keep your state, and your weak ass, outrageously flamboyant homosexual rights movement.

Keep your state, and your weak ass, outrageously flamboyant homosexual rights movement.they're making a big deal that gays are mocking Christians. But haven't Christians already mocked the gays by taking their right to marry away? So obviously, the people in the video are doing everything for fun and entertainment. If Christians don't appreciate that, then don't watch the video. They despise that men show their stuff to other men, but isn't that what happens in the gym's shower. Guys walk around naked with their junk hanging out.
What about heterosexual guys watching porn with girl on girl action? That is approved by of course heteros.
The author is right... there is obviously double standards. From which side, still has to be determined.
