Gareth Thomas Comes Out

[Quarterpoundher]

And if he really loved the sport of Rugby, why he had to ruin it for others by coming out of the closet, him being gay should not affect his playing, so why the need to let it be known he was gay when he knows people might not be accepting of it? What he does in his bedroom is his business, do others really need to know about it?

In fairness Anita no one should have to be forced to live a lie, if large sections of the non gay section of society, and in particular many sports did not have such a hang up about it he would not have to even announce it. You don't see straight rugby players issuing a statement that they are straight so it will take lots more sports people to be as brave as he is being before the time comes that no one has to do what he has done. This is more the way society is geared that makes such a song and dance about it. I don't think you can blame him but more the society we live in.

The Pope is the earthly head of the Roman Catholic Church, not in my opinion that his view is even the opinion of the followers of his own faith, but he can hardy speak for the entire worlds population.........

Another cop out and excuse by the Church.................

No but he does speak for the worlds Catholics,
He goes on to say that no two homosexual peoples should be alloewd to participate in any church activity unless it is to renounce their homosexuality

You might have thoughts of being with a man, but some men don't-just like some people don't like being with Blacks, so what-blacks don't like being with whites-each his own

I dont have any thoughts of being with a man, have very sensitive skin so dfont what to get beard rash.
your right somew people dont like other people but to go on and slag them off for something in which is not their fault is wrong.

Its that kind of attitude that spills blood

I'll say it again, 'I've had enough of FAGGOT CULTURE'

[Doozer]

If you have had enough why are you still replying to the thread?

So you dont want to hear about it anymore and you want all the gays and lesbians to hide themselves away, while your at it tell all the seperate religions to pack it in and tell every culture that they have to act grey and their can be no more individuality.

According to the Vatican Carlos. Unfortunatly the Pope views homosexuality a disorder. But then again what does he know

I heard about him.....a bloke who encourages his subordinates to report child sexual abuse to the Vatican, where it can be buried in the same cells where they used to torture those who disagreed with them, rather than report it to the civil authorities.

Dermot Ahern, are you listening Brother? How's this for blasphemy......fcuk the pope! Happy now?

I know Carlos, who is he to say what is right or wrong anymore after all the cover ups. He will excommunicate some one for a small civil offence but when it comes to the staff its keep iut quiet at all costs, 'I aint seen nuthin' mentality
