Defeat the Bigots in Nottingham

metaltrotsky | 22.06.2006 09:31 | Culture | Gender | Repression

Christian Voice have been organising protests outside Jerry Springer: The Opera all week. At first we protested on Freedom of Speech. These people are much more dangerous - they are Homophobic Bigots of the worst kind.

Christian Voice is putting themselves across as simple Christians fulfilling the Bible, and standing up for taste and decency.

However, a quick look at their webs(h)ite gives us this quote from Stephen Green, their National Director (Emphasis Mine):

"Of course we make DISCRIMINATORY PRONOUNCEMENTS on the grounds of SEXUAL ORIENTATION. We have been CRITICISING HOMOSEXUAL RIGHTS ever since we started eleven years ago. In fact you could say THERE ARE DOZENS OF SUCH PRONOUNCEMENTS IN MY OWN BOOK "The Sexual Dead End"."

The rest of the site is dedicated to an extreme fundamentalist approach to the Bible that would offend the vast majority of mainstream Christians. Bile against homosexuals, other "sexual deviants", the Human Rights and Race Relations Acts, and demanding a much greater relationship between church and state.

In Nottingham, Christian Voice claim to be standing up for freedom of speech - as long as you are agreeing with them. Otherwise, you have no freedom (and will burn in the eternal fiery pits of hell for all eternity unless you repent). Are these the people we can look to on the grounds of taste and decency?!

SO COME ALOMG AND PROTEST AGAINST THE BIGOTS, AND FOR FREE SPEECH. THIS FRIDAY, 5PM UNTILL 8PM, OUTSIDE THE ROYAL THEATRE. THEY ARE MOBILISING FOR A LARGE TURNOUT - SO SHOULD WE. SWEEP THE BIGOTS OFF OUR STREETS!!!!! BRING BANNERS, PLACARDS, MEGAPHONES, MUSIC, ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF - BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE.
