disgraceful bigots

At the moment I'm too angry to write in a detached manner. The disgusting homophobe Stephen Green, and his revolting Christian Voice organisation caused the cancellation of a launch event for Patrick Jones' latest book. Read about it here, and I will try to blog later when I've managed to cool down.

Update Here are some further links on this story. Ironically I can't access Christian Voice's site from work, so I can't provide a link to them. If you do contact them over this then please keep it civil and factual. I would encourage you post any communications, and importantly any replies either here or in a public forum and send me the link, or add it as a comment to this post.

green is a moron. Whatever happened to turning the other cheek?

I think he's more of an Old Testament guy - Leviticus and all that shit. Jesus is probably a bit a wuss for him.

On the Christian Voice site there's a comment about how with the church 'drowning in oestrogen' it's time for 'Christianity with testosterone'.

wants more testosterone? perhaps he's gay..
often the one who shouts the loudest has the most to hide.
