The Glasgay! arts festival is staging a play called Jesus, Queen of Heaven, in which in Christ is a man who wants to become a woman. As soon as I read about it, I thought: “I bet some public money has gone into that”. But even I was taken aback when I visited the festival website:
If there’s one thing gay activists love, it’s public money. Though, as you can see, they’re only too thrilled to pick up a bit of commercial sponsorship along the way.
Unsurprisingly, Jesus, Queen of Heaven has provoked protests from Catholics (who are probably unaware that they’re subsidising this venture through income tax, council tax, lottery tickets etc). They have protested outside the Tron Theatre. One banner reads “Jesus, King of Kings, not Queen of Heaven”; another says “God: My Son is not a Pervert”. That last message is unpleasant – but, hey, “Glasgay! supports the right of freedom of expression”, we’re told. Unless, of course, it decides that it’s being subjected to “homophobia” by the Christians it has upset. They are the ones being “provocative”, it seems.
Tricky territory, eh? Let’s turn to the BBC for guidance. Here is the report on its website:
Transsexual Jesus sparks protests
About 300 protesters held a candlelit protest outside a Glasgow theatre over the staging of a play which portrays Jesus as a transsexual.
The protest was held outside the Tron Theatre, where Jesus Queen of Heaven, in which Christ is a man who wants to become a woman, is being staged.

One day they will face “The Father”, and he will not be too happy about them blaspheming “His Son”.

It’s “homodisgustus”!
Learn the difference between disgust and fear.
It is NOT a “phobia”!
How about a play about a cross dressing Mohammad trying to discover his ‘inner self’ during a Fremont Street Gay festival.
A disgusting play from disgusting people.
the gays claim the right to insult us, our feelings, our religions, our beleifs, but if you dare insult a gay - you caould be in some serious trouble.
One day they’ll be meeting the Son as well and all that smarmy, smugness will melt as their knees will bow.

Yeah, that’s going to happen. They’re way too cowardly to even entertain the idea. Christians behave like Christians (for the most part) and the other, well, we know how that works out.
ACT 2:
Mohammed sodomizes a PIG.
Tickets are going fast!!!!!
I used to have a circle of friends/coworkers with a more “diverse” group of participants. I would ask questions like this and would be given a long lecture on various fantasies they believed rather than reality. Keep lying to yourself long enough and you can believe anything. Maybe they want to be in some sheiks harem?
“the gays claim the right to insult us, our feelings, our religions, our beleifs, but if you dare insult a gay - you caould be in some serious trouble.”
Yeah, then it’s a “hate” crime...
But, don’t you dare call a homosexual a faggot! Homosexuals alone have the right to smear other groups and their beliefs!
