    Republicans Fight Back (Straight Pride Week)



    ------------------

    College Republicans Plan 'Straight Pride Week'

    UPDATED: 11:49 AM EST January 28, 2005

    EDMOND, Okla. -- A University of Central Oklahoma student group is planning what it calls "Straight Pride Week" on campus.

    Members of the College Republicans said despite objections from some, they have every right to celebrate. Which is closest to how you feel about the College Republicans' "Straight Pride Week" celebrations? Good for them. They are being discriminatory. I don't mind it because it just makes it them look bad. Neither "Gay Pride Week" or "Straight Pride Week" should be observed.

    "The general gist is that if you are a straight student on campus be proud, be loud, this is your time to shine," said college Republican Kyle Houts.

    The group has posted fliers on campus that read, "we're here, we're conservative, we're out."

    Members of the Gay Alliance for Tolerance and Equality say they consider the College Republican's celebration an attack on gay and lesbian students.

    "What is there to say about it, 'I'm proud, and I'm straight and I guess white,' I don't know?" said GATE member Jennifer Rodriguez. "I think they definitely are being discriminatory because there's probably a lot of gay Republicans out there."

    University officials have given the College Republicans permission to put up their fliers, but say their approval does not constitute an endorsement.

          Ford,

          Question:

          Do you think it is possible for ANYONE to oppose homosexuality and NOT be a homophobe or racist?

          I can see an argument about being a homophobe (i.e. about their sexual orientation) but what that has to do with racism (Color of their skin), I'm a little unclear on..

              If a joke makes me "gay", then knock yourself out with this one, girlfriend!

              The Top Ten things that would be different if the Disciples were Gay:

              10) Priests would not get married.....wait a minute....

              9) Jesus wouldn't wear a white robe after Labor Day.

              8) Fewer "Sermons on the Mount", more "Musicals".

              7) Gospels would be Matthew, Mark, Luke and Bruce.

              6) Virgin Mary's hair would be flawless.

              5) Would not have chased money changers out of the temple - they would have redecorated.

              4) Turn water into dry martinis with just a splash of curacao for color.

              3) Instead of the Last Supper, it would have been the Last Brunch with cabaret.

              2) Replace the Beatitudes with "Fabulous are they. . ."

              1) Triumphant Entry just screams for a Drag number.

                  Since Jesus never said one word about homosexuality, that would be impossible.

                      Such statements clearly shows your lack of understanding of the nature of Christ.

                          Oh, sorry.... I forgot you were talking about the idolatrous false image of Christ promoted by the neocon fascist right wing, who hates everybody equally.

                          I was talking about the REAL Jesus Christ of Nazareth who preached "Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged" and "As you have done unto the least of these, you have done unto Me".

                          The guy who, as it happenned, was a deacendant of that fag King David.

                            Jesus also did NOT contradict scripture!

                              Ford,

                              I think that is an oversimplification. Is it possible for someone to disagree with a lifestyle choice, yet not hate the person engaged in it? I think it is quite possible..
