The children dont have a choice when they have a teacher preaching this stuff at them. schools are for giving kids the qualifications they need to get a job and get on in life . As a Brexit Party supporter you'll be delighted to know that fellow Brexit Party supporter Ann Widdicombe thinks that very soon science will uncover a way of curing people from being gay: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other/fury-as-ann-widdecombe-says-science-may-produce-an-answer-to-being-gay/ar-AAChHMS?ocid=spartanntp A bit undignified when you have to rely on bigotry to keep your name in the media.

Mister Gee   824 #195 Posted June 2, 2019 I was a bit surprised that Ann Widdecombe had got back into politics but stoking hatred & exploiting ignorance is clearly up her street. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If she had converted from being a Sunni Muslim to a follower of Wahabism or from being a secular Jew to an Hasidic Jew I'd have said exactly the same thing.  The more extreme a religion the less tolerant and more bigotted it's adherents become.

That is just not so, all those religions mentioned have their share of traditionalists and liberals.  If the religion you singled out for criticism was that bigoted then why would they support this LGBT group. http://www.lgbtcatholicsyag.org.uk/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

They promote a culture and encourage activities that are contrary to Catholic faith and morals. They are especially harmful for children."  So what is the official Catholic position regarding LGBTQ?

Both of those religions have LBGT groups but that doesn’t mean that the majority of their adherents aren’t homophobic.  https://imaanlondon.wordpress.com/  https://www.haaretz.com/whdcMobileSite/misc/tags/TAG-gay-jews-1.5599143 Edited June 3, 2019 by Top Cats Hat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
