Awards director Horace Newcomb said at the time that by its offensiveness, the show "[b]reminds us of the need for being tolerant[/b]."[/quote] This is probably the most important part of that news story and I think it's that point that you are missing, Jade. You need to understand that there is a huge difference between the faithful and the religious (to me anyway). You don't need religion to be faithful and you don't need faith to be religious. I see this proven every day by religious hypocrits worldwide. I have faith in many things. All that means is I believe something that can't be proven. I do not continue to believe things that are proven to be different from my beliefs. That would be foolish. I do not attempt to convert people to my way of thinking in any way what-so-ever. If someone asks. I answer. If they don't ask... they don't know. That is my definition of tolerance. I don't wear my beliefs like a banner to express them to everyone and anyone. You're Christian... big deal. That guy over there is gay.... Big deal. I don't care about your personal choices until it's impossible for me to avoid them. There is something abrassive and uncouth with taking something as personal as sexuality or faith (or any other ridiculous thing to have pride in) and throwing it into the public arena. [quote]When they get older they can choose for themselves. what faith they want to die with.[/quote] Funny, that. I though Faith was supposed to teach you how to live not how to die. GD Loading...
