Does this offend you?

"Gay advocates are demanding an apology from the University of Washington student newspaper after an image of a man and a sheep was included in an opinion piece against gay marriage."-Yahoo News

WTF!? 

The U-Dub Daily editor-in-chief claims it was just an editorial art decision designed to acknowledge a point in the article that argues how gay marriage is a "slippery slope" to other unsavory forms of union, i.e., in this case anyway, um, between a man and his sheep. (Well, columnist John Fay's actual words were, "Once you’ve legalized gay marriage, why not polygamy, incest, bestiality or any other form of union?") Therefore, no apology will be issued. The students who rallied against it, however, feel like its use is not only offensive, but it also promotes homophobia. Watch the report, then tell us where you stand.

    the answer is the Americans are still contrived with there stupid version of British ConserVATive-Republican wimple wanple, ziggity zaggity slosh.

    in the stupid use of 'slippery slope,' there is no analogy to the attack on sex, and the sexual habits of humans, the term is a off-roaders term for tough drives on snowy hills.

    what ever the world thinks about the sexual habits of the modern world, in the revolting accent that someones sexual choices are somehow connected to animals is just vile.

    and i have to wonder in the super-power that the USA claims to be why or how such a poster could even have been printed.

    Jesus Christ..."Being gay is a SIN BLAH BLAH". Hypocrites. "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone." Did you forget that little thing about being forgiven? Who are YOU to judge whether anyone goes to hell or not? Best bet is you'll be the one defending yourself once you're at the place to be judged.

    You people only read what you want to read and ignore anything else that'll work against your opinions.

    Just say " f--- you" to "Love thy neighbor" and all that jazz. Obviously Jesus hates sinners. That's why he never bothered dying for them.

    PS: Not everyone is Christian. Even Jesus understood this and presented strong arguments to convert people vs. " f--- YOU! You're DIFFERENT! DIE!! I'M RIGHT AND YOU'RE WRONG!!!". You people can't even manage to be good at what you supposedly "Know".

    This is disgusting! As a bi female who has chosen to be with men, yes that is offensive. I am not for or againgst the marriage thing but people need to get a grip. That is ignorance at its best. It's funny b/c the people who hate us are usually one insult away from coming out of the closet. Seen it a million times. Go Gay lol

    I am also a religious person, but can say that everyone sins. As a christian you shouldn't be judging gays and saying they will go to hell. Everyone sins against the ten commandments, because we are born sinners (if you believe in Jesus Christ). I don't think it is right to allow gay marriage, but it doesn't matter to me if someone gets married within the same sex. That is their personal decision and who am I do judge them of their decisions...especially what makes them so happy! Yes it is a sin and is against the bible, but God will decide what he wants to do with them...not us as humans should be doing any of the judging. It doesn't offend me because I am attracted to the opposite sex, but I am sure it isn't something the gay community wants to see. I have had several gay friends and they know it's a sin. They have even come to church with me...but like I said, that is their decision.

    For the person who said that America believes in free religion. I can understand that b/c we have freedom of speech, but from a christian aspect, I can see that In GOD we trust (american money, pledge of allegiance)...is everywhere representing America...so I can see both point of views. I am not saying that everyone who lives in America is christian or has to be, but you just have to look at the facts.

    It's the lifestyle they choose to go w/, I'm not part of that. A D*** is meant for a P**** and vice versa, It's not D*** for D***, or P**** for P**** it was not made that way. But god has taught to love everyone regardless, if it was my own child I would love them too.

    "none" your comment is RIDICULOUS.

    you are a complete moron.

    you know how many f------ things are a sin?

    are you gonna go to hell for everything that you do?

    I DONT THINK SO.

    IF YOUR SUCH A CHURCH GOER THEN YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT HE FORGIVES YOU FOR YOUR SINS! ITS A PART OF LIFE. EVERYONE SINS. THATS THE WAY IT GOES.

    ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME THAT EVEN IF YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON AND YOU GO TO CHURCH BUT YOU ARE GAY THEN YOU ARE GOING TO HELL?

    YOUR SO NAIVE!!!

    I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW ITS SUCH A SIN WHEN GOD HAS CREATED THEM THAT WAY HIMSELF. THEY ARE BORN THAT WAY. PEOPLE DONT JUST DECIDE THEY WANNA BE GAY SOMEDAY. SO SAYING ITS A SIN ACTUALLY MAKES NO f------ SENSE.

    Whats that? There's some progress I see afew of you peeking out of that closet I was talking about. If you dont like it thats fine but its just wrong to blast offensive comments and hatred. We are not crazy or sick but we are people. If we need meds for our sexuality then you need meds for your ingnorance. You should been that mad unless you tryed it and got shafted.lol I'd rather be gay and happy than straight and pissed. Find something to do like charity or maybe some type of craft.
