To document my earlier post, here are some quotes from Feste's other posts in this thread: ----- "Those who are so keen to prove their liberal credentials by endorsing the practice of buggery might care to consult The Secret Life of Oscar Wilde (2005), by Neil McKenna, which provides many details of the disgusting nature of such acts. After Oscar had his way with the young men who came to his hotel room, the sheets were stained with shit, and this was important evidence, as supplied by a maid, in Oscar's conviction at his trial." ----- "Ah, there you are quite wrong. I do not believe homosexual anal intercourse should be made illegal, and certainly should not result in sentences of two years hard labor, as it did in the case of Oscar Wilde. Nor do I think that homosexuals should be discriminated against. What people do in the privacy of their own homes is their own business. But it doesn't mean I have to go along with the homosexual agenda that brainwashes people into believing that a homosexual 'lifestyle" is just as good as any other. No doubt the sodomites on this board who have so recently been giving out handy little tips on their practices will disagree, as is their right. Everyone has the right to choose their own path to hell." ----- "I can't understand why the Christians are so upset about 'Brokeback Mountain.' To me it shows the misery and destruction that homosexual acts can cause. Those guys would have been better off had they never done it. They might possibly have been happily married. They gave in to a perverse urge and look where it got them -- walking the road to hell." ----- "Now of couse the real reason I am provoking such a storm in this little insignificant corner of cyberspace is that THEY STOLE A GOOD WORD. Gay was a wonderful word that unfortunately can never be used again with its proper meaning. After all, what's gay about being queer? It's just sad." ----- Bottom line: As usual, Barry assumed he was so smart he didn't really need to read the whole thread. So he completely missed the blatant hypocrisy in the post of Feste's he quotes above, figuring the only reason Feste was being labeled a homophobe was because he finds their practice of anal sex disgusting. Then in a later post, as he also frequently does, Barry *made up* an issue that nobody had raised, i.e., that those criticizing Feste thought he shouldn't be allowed to express himself, and proceeded to dump on the critics for espousing censorship. That's Barry's world. ------------------------ Yahoo!
