Like it would be required of me to know christian religion good enough to avoid possible blasphemy. Well "fuck you" to that if I live in atheist country, with a wave of christian immigrants coming into my neighborhood.
Out of interest what country do you live in?
It says in my profile - Latvia
We have almost no gays or immigrants though.
C'mon, how could you know that? Didn't Iran's president say something similar?
Data on immigrants is easily available, and you don't meet them in your daily life.
Gays - of course there could be a lot of them, but they are universally repressed and frown upon, so they try not to show themselves
.
Wow, I hope all Latvians don't think like this. I hope you're just a troll.
In general this is a conservative country. We had a gay pride in a past, and people where bothered enough to visit and fling rotten eggs and bags with shit (literary) onto pride participants. Multiple cases of seniors trying to beat up a participant. To them it's a great shame and offense, and these old people can get pretty involved. It's a popular opinion, that EU is bringing this to this country, and people jokingly say "joining gayrope" or "accepting gayropean values".
Of course it's a bit too much, but then again why should we let them to march through our streets promoting such alien ideas to our society?
We ourselves do not have openly gay celebrities. One priest, who uses that to earn $$$ and attention. One news anchor, who's actually born in Chicago. There's also one singer, local Ricky Martin, if you will. But he's not coming out any soon, so those could be rumors.
It's like in Arcade Fire song "We Exist" (another example going along my original post). It's impossible to ignore the fact that they exist. But I do hope someone can shut em up, so they can exist silently.
Wow, you really are vile if you genuinely think like this. Hard to believe people do.
