Oh no she didn't! Oh yes she did!

[Knight of Gondor]

Just taking a second to clear the air here, and hope that I do not stir up further personal attacks for daring to hold to my outdated opinions that God is God and says that homosexuality is a sin. First, my apologies to accidentally redirecting the topic to homosexuality. This was not my intention, and I apologize for that. I do not, however, apologize for my beliefs and opinions, and I submit that anyone who uses such derogatory terms for me is the one who is close-minded and intolerant.<P>Here's what I said previously: I don't expect you guys (and gals) to agree with me, but the reason I'm not happy that Ian McKellen is gay is because I'm a Christian, and according to the Bible, homosexuality is a sin. I know that's not the issue at hand, I just wanted to clear that up.<P>Does that sound so terribly offensive?<P>A note about my private message box: A few people have mentioned before that my PM box was "full" - I took this to mean that they had sent a lot of messages, but when I looked, I was puzzled that nothing was there. It took a while to get through my head that there was a LIMIT on how many messages I could have in my box. So I have cleared it out now, and anyone who wants to PM me and bad-mouth me or something, go ahead. Be assured I am not, by any means, ducking anyone as H.C. implies.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>No one seems to be complaining that Hugo Weaving played a drag queen in Pricilla Queen of the Desert.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Hey, I never knew that. But I never seen that movie, nor heard of it. But I don't like it...nor that Sean Bean was in a porn film, nor that David Westhelm or whatever his last name was (I keep forgetting) played a drug addict. It just ruins the concept of the characters for me, at least a little.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Well Knight of Gondor I was going to PM you but your box is full *hint hint*. As for your belief keep it up!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Thanks man, and PM away now!<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I, and I'm sure I'm not the only one here, found KoG's comments, especially towards Mr. McKellen, offensive. Institutionized prejudice is still prejudice. It's like me justifying a hatred for Jews on the basis of being a Nazi.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Please don't stoop to personal attacks just because you are prejudiced towards me and my opinions, H.C.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Further posts touching on this touchy subject or cheerleading one side or the other will be swiftly deleted, as they're already leading to personal friction and off-topic debate. In fact, I may go back and zap a few of these most recent posts. <P>Let's keep it on-topic and civil, folks.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Understood, and agreed, Mr. Underhill. I hope you don't mind if I posted this last post to clear the air, and my name. <P>Once again, sorry for misdirecting the tone of this discussion, and let’s not carry any judgmental attitudes away from this discussion based solely on personal stances. <P>Regards,<P>Knight
