Writer and computer spod (thankfully doing more of the former after far too long hung up on the latter!). My area of work is the performing arts -- specifically, theatre and television -- and, while I know far too much about the latter, am always looking for people to accompany me to the former! Always interested in meeting new friends, especially those willing to help me celebrate becoming a published author!

A topic from News & Current Affairs: Gay

In a programme to be broadcast on BBC1 Wales tonight, Christian Voice nutcase Stephen Green tells Ian 'H' Watkins "that his gay lifestyle makes him no better than mass murderer Jeffrey Dahmer", according to a BBC press release.

"The outburst came when Ian told Mr Green that he was "completely happy" being gay and that he was in a loving relationship.

In the programme, Green reacts by telling Ian: "Jeremy (sic) Dahmer was happy murdering people, does that make it right?"

The comment shocks Ian and he responds: "So, being completely happy and at one with yourself and being in a happy loving relationship is the same as murdering somebody?"

But in the exchange, Green sticks to his guns: "Sin is sin ... in the eyes of God, sin is sin...""

In many respects, I suspect the documentary crew went to Green not because he's representative of Christian attitudes to homosexuality, but because they knew they'd get a good soundbite out of him. Still, at least someone stands up to his homophobic rantings with common sense, even if it is someone who in all other respects is a bit of a twat.
