Shocking Homophobia

JohnK · Pieces of me you've never seen

I just laughed outloud at this bit, so had to share it incase you don't see it:

"Homosexuals are 100 times more likely to be murdered (usually by another homosexual) than the average person, 25 times more likely to commit suicide, and 19 times more likely to die in a traffic accident (8).

and

"21% of lesbians die of murder, suicide or traffic accident, which is at a rate of 534 times higher than the number of white heterosexual females aged 25-44 who die of these things (8)."

So girls - start crossing the road safer!!!!

I keep reading this site waiting for the punchline! But there isn't one, which is perhaps the most disturbing thing!

i felt a strange sense of déjà-vu when reading your post john. then it hit me: here's something i read on the infamous godhatesfags.com:

Fags are 100 times more likely to be murdered (usually by another fag) than the average person, 25 times more likely to commit suicide, and 19 times more likely to die in a traffic accident (8).
21% of dykes die of murder, suicide or traffic accident, which is at a rate of 534 times higher than the number of white heterosexual females aged 25-44 who die of these things(8).

no mere coincidence i'd say

ChipsAndLube · Bertha, lovely Bertha, you are a lovely machine.

another thing: it's interesting how they manage to bring race into the equation ('...white heterosexual females...').

i suspect that this 'christian' coalition are not necesessarily racist themselves, but that they're so blindly stupid that they've copied and pasted from godhatesfags.com without even reading what they've quoted!

then again, the 'christians' in dortmund square in leeds every saturday afternoon blatently are racist. well technically it will come under the faith discrimination legislation about to come in, but they claim that all non-christians will burn in hell for all eternity.

"does that include my jewish and muslim friends?" i asked once when we went to laugh at them. "yes," one 'ex' homosexual replied to me.

funny how they're all an 'ex' something; ex-convicts, ex-alcoholics, ex-gayers. proof enough for me to believe that these losers pray on the vulnerable and sensitive. that's not christianity. that's taking advantage of people when they're at their lowest.

there's a horrific story i could tell involving 'christians', but i doubt it's the place here on the forum.

Dave can we go throw eggs at the people in Dortmund Square??!!! (or wherever it is - is that near HMV yeah?)

Re. the racist thing - look in their guest book - one post is particularly racist.

Another problem with this site is that it tends to take a lot of it information from American sources (prob. godhatesfags.com like you said Dave) and confuses its readers by comparing unequal sets of data, that when you think about it properly don't make sense.

i just knew the BNP would have some take on this. heh, wonder when someone's going to tell them that what they term the 'wicked' religion of islam takes a similar stance on homosexuality.

fvckwits.

Hey all :) I've been reading up on the posts and following the links and so forth... and I've determined that these "Christians" who are doing this are pretty confused. You see I'm not LGBT, in fact I'm a Christian and I'm married to an awesome woman! I would just like to go on the record to say that not all "Christians" are like those in the previous threads. I have a tattoo on my arm that reads a bible verse found in 1st John 4:8 and it goes like this... "He who does not have love, does not know God, for God is love." I'm sorry that other "Christians" have treated you all so poorly. I'm sure Jesus would want to kick their butts for it... but that's just the thing. Jesus loves us all very much...gays, biggots, racist people, pastors, priests... you get the point. In a way Jesus is the ultimate "hippy" so to speak. My name is Daniel btw. I'm sorry to type so much, but my heart was broken when I heard how all of you had been treated. I'm sorry again.

ChipsAndLube · Bertha, lovely Bertha, you are a lovely machine.

thanks daniel,

i'm really happy that there are people like you to prove that there are still some true christians around, even if they are few and far between.

much love from all us LGBT people x
