That hotel in your link would now be best advised to reword it's advertisements, because I guarantee, there will be newspapers hunting out exclusively gay hotels so that they can publish a story showing what can only be described as 'heterophobia' from the gay community.

[sp1814]

I would also like to ask this - why is it that that Christians 'cherry pick' the things which are banned in the Bible. Okay - unmatched couples and gays are the hot button topics, but what about:

1. Round haircuts:

Leviticus 19:27 reads “You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard.” 

2. Football: 

At least, the pure version of football, where you play with a pigskin. 

Leviticus 11:8, which is discussing pigs, reads “You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.”

3. Pulling out:

IGenesis 38:9-10: “Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when he went in to his brother’s wife, he wasted his seed on the ground in order not to give offspring to his brother. But what he did was displeasing in the sight of the Lord; so He took his life also.”

No EDDIE...you can legally refuse permission to anyone. But you can't state a reason that is considered discrimination..

4. Polyester, or any other fabric blends. The Bible doesn’t want you to wear polyester. Not just because it looks cheap. It’s sinfully unnatural. 

Leviticus 19:19 reads, “You are to keep My statutes. You shall not breed together two kinds of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor wear a garment upon you of two kinds of material mixed together.” 

5. Divorce:

Mark 10:11-12, “And He said to them, ‘Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her; and if she herself divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery.'"

6. Illegitimate children:

Deuteronomy 23:2 reads, “No one of illegitimate birth shall enter the assembly of the Lord; none of his descendants, even to the tenth generation, shall enter the assembly of the Lord.”

Cross the Bacon one off your list, do it in the micro kills any germs and put some brown sauce on it.

[Mick-Talbot]

actually ummmm, I have just thought.

I only know 1 practising christian. He doesn't bang on about religion though.
Although i do imagine , every christian in the world, talks in the exact mundane deliberate tone.

[ummmm]

You're right Mick...I should have said 'born again Christians'

I know enough of them. My Dad thought my Mum had joined a cult...lol

Do not forget the Kirpan

Sir Mota Singh QC has criticised schools who stop pupils from wearing the Kirpan and the Kara (a steel bangle), two of the five "articles of faith" that must be carried at all times by baptised Sikhs.

The department for Children, Schools and Families says it is up to individual governing bodies to make their own policy on the carrying of the Kirpan.


I do not wish to upset any gay members but would it hurt to allow some people with strong religious beliefs to be exempt from some of these laws

[jackthehat]

Until each faith presents each and every article before the courts/legislature for consideration for exclusion and receives such, they are duty bound to follow the law.

[sp1814]

ABConsultant

It's apples and oranges. You're comparing school rules with national laws. The equality laws apply to everyone...there arent (and in my opinion, shouldn't be) get out clauses. If there we, then employers could easily use the excuse, "But I'm a Christian, and I do no approve of homosexuality, so I will not employ any gay men or lesbians".

Thin end of the wedge time.

Items on homosexuals have been done to death, give it a rest.
