The Gaytheist Agenda

No More Ms. Nice Gay for her, and for that I heartily commend her.

Haim was a staple in the 80s teen movies I grew up on. I’m not entirely surprised at this news, though I rather expected Corey Feldman to be the first to go.

The Lost Boys actor Corey Haim has died aged 38, the Los Angeles coroner’s office has confirmed.

A spokeswoman said he passed away in the early hours of Wednesday morning at Providence St Joseph Medical Centre.

A post-mortem will determine the cause of death and no other details have been released as yet.

The Canadian-born star’s first role was in the 1984 hit Firstborn. In recent years, he appeared in reality TV show The Two Coreys.

The series, which also starred Haim’s friend Corey Feldman, was cancelled in 2008 after two series.

…..

In recent years, Haim had spoken to press about his battle with addiction.

…..

Daniel Radcliffe has been subject to OMG is he gay?!?! rumors for some time now. He’s finally come out to declare that he’s not, but he really doesn’t mind if people think he is.

…..
He said: “If people want to say that, they can. I’m not. I’m straight.
…..
Radcliffe is reported to have recently made a “major donation” to an American charity which fights intolerance of gay men, lesbians and bisexuals, The Sun reported.

He has also revealed he grew up around homosexuals and last year posed on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

In a past interview, he said: “Some people think I am gay, which I think is awesome.”
…..

 
No doubt fundagelicals will use this as yet another reason to declare him an abomination, as if starring in the Harry Potter movies (Witchcraft!!!), being an atheist and performing nude onstage weren’t already enough. But I’m sure neither he nor his legions of fans will give a darn.

And now an entirely gratuitous photo for gay men, and bisexual or straight women:

Shadix, known for roles like “Otho” in the movie Beetlejuice , was subjected to painful electric shocks as part of his “reparative therapy”. Is it any wonder many of us don’t buy it when the RRRWers claim they “love” us and want to “help” us? Help? Sounds more like sadistic torture to me. Thankfully Shadix came through on the other side.

Patrick Swayze, famous for his roles in movies such as Dirty Dancing and Ghost , died today after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. –

After a long battle with cancer, actor Patrick Swayze has died, Access Hollywood has learned.

Swayze was 57.

A publicist for the actor confirmed the news to Access Hollywood on Monday.

The actor was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in January 2008 and underwent chemotherapy, but went on with his work, taking on a grueling schedule to play FBI agent Charles Barker in A&E drama “The Beast” – the series was canceled in June 2009.
…..
Swayze was born on August 18, 1952, in Houston, Texas, and was best known for his leading roles in film hits, such as “Dirty Dancing” and “Ghost,” for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe.

The actor trained as a dancer at the Harkness Ballet and Joffrey Ballet schools before entering the worlds of Broadway, television and film, an experience that served him well in his breakthrough role as a dance instructor in “Dirty Dancing,” where he co-starred alongside Jennifer Grey.

His biggest hit was 1990’s “Ghost,” with Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg, which earned over $200 million at the box office.
…..
His final role came in 2009 in the straight-to-DVD film “Powder Blue,” in which he played an aging rock star alongside Jessica Biel, Forest Whitaker and his younger brother, Don Swayze.

R.I.P., Patrick Swayze.

 

This is nothing new. The RRRWers, famous for insisting on personal freedoms and screaming that the government shouldn’t interfere in their private lives, always want to tell us how to live and want to use governmental regulations and laws to back them up. And nobody is safe from their wrath, particularly people like Brad Pitt, who is continually in the spotlight.

…..
“When someone asked me why Angie and I don’t get married, I replied, ‘Maybe we’ll get married when it’s legal for everyone else,’  ” Pitt tells me. “I stand by that, although I took a lot of flak for saying it—hate mail from religious groups. I believe everyone should have the same rights. They say gay marriage ruins families and hurts kids. Well, I’ve had the privilege of seeing my gay friends being parents and watching their kids grow up in a loving environment.

For the record, legitimate research has shown that children raised by same-sex couples are as happy and healthy as children raised by opposite-sex couples. Sadly anti-gays like to distort existing research, cite phony experts and otherwise mislead the public so as to impede equal rights for LGBT individuals.

Am I surprised that Pitt gets hate mail from those who clamor for “personal freedoms” and decreased “government interference” because he stands for exactly that? Of course not. Those individuals only want such things for themselves and everyone exactly like them. Everyone else they want to keep under strict control and they’ll use whatever means they have at their disposal to achieve those goals.

“Would it bother me if a child of mine turns out to be gay?” he asks. “No, not one bit. Listen, I want my kids to live the lives they want to live. I want them to be fulfilled. I hope I teach my kids to be who they really are.”
…..

What? If one of his kids is gay he won’t send them off to be spiritually, psychologically and even physically abused in the name of Jesus? He must be one of those evil atheists! Oh, wait…he is.

“Man, I resent people telling others how to live! It drives me mental!” he declares loudly. “Just the other night, I heard this TV reverend say that Angie and I were setting a bad example because we were living out of wedlock, and people should not be duped by us! It made me laugh. What damn right does anyone have to tell someone else how to live if they’re not hurting anyone? How many times do you think real love comes to someone in a lifetime? If you’re lucky, maybe two or three.”
…..

Brad, I love you . In a totally platonic way of course. And I don’t think my lovely wife will be jealous in the least over that.

“Do you know how you tell real love?” he asks. “It’s when someone else’s interest trumps your own. I like to put it that way: trumps your own. Love of somebody else—of family, of your kids—becomes the most important, most worthwhile thing in your life. It’s what you foster and protect.
…..

I agree. And love has nothing to do with gender, gods, having children (or not), those children being biologically yours (or not) or any other such manufactured notions. Sadly that’s what the RRRW will never understand.

 

John Hughes, famous for directing, producing and writing hit movies like The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and 16 Candles, died of a heart attack while visiting his family in Manhattan. At the risk of dating myself I’ll confess I came of age on his “teen angst” movies and adored them. He will be missed.

 

I’m not at all surprised. Brad Pitt officially indicated during an interview with BILD magazine that he doesn’t believe in God.

 

…..
BILD: Have you found happiness in life?
Brad Pitt (nodding): Hm – yes. I am on the path I want to be on.”

BILD: Do you believe in God?
Brad Pitt (smiling): “No, no, no!”

BILD: Is your soul spiritual?
Brad Pitt: “No, no, no! I’m probably 20 per cent atheist and 80 per cent agnostic. I don’t think anyone really knows. You’ll either find out or not when you get there, until then there’s no point thinking about it.
…..

It sounds, from his description, like he’s an agnostic atheist. Being one myself I gladly welcome him to our ranks.

 

Of course we already knew that Dumbledore is gay, and of course the Harry Potter books and movies include sorcery and other such “unwholesome” stuff. Now Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry Potter in the movies, has openly admitted his atheism. Well, if he was trying to find something more disturbing to the wingnuts than going full frontal on stage he found it.

…..
In a pronouncement that will dismay America’s religious Right, which has long voiced suspicions about Potter’s “anti-Christian” message, the 19-year-old actor said he did not believe in God.

He also expressed his admiration for Professor Richard Dawkins, the prominent atheist and bete noir of Evangelical Christians.

Radcliffe has been reticent on the subject of religion in the past, but in an interview to promote the latest instalment in the film franchise, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, released on July 15, he said: “I’m an atheist, but I’m very relaxed about it. I don’t preach my atheism, but I have a huge amount of respect for people like Richard Dawkins who do. Anything he does on television, I will watch.”
…..

Cue demands from the RRRW for books to be burned and the latest HP movie to be banned from local theaters.

 

I know it’s a lot to undertake considering we’re already overwhelmed with our campaign to destroy heterosexual marriage, persecute Christians and Mormons, and make baby Jesus cry. However some things are worth the extra effort.

FACT
36.2 million people lived in households considered to be food insecure (to be unable to reliably put food on the table for the family). Of these, 23.8 million are adults and 12.4 million are children (USDA, 2007).

FACT
In 2008, the demand for food from food banks increased by 30% (New York Times, 2/20/09).

FACT
In 2007, the USDA found that the ten states with the highest food insecurity rates were Mississippi, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Maine, South Carolina, Georgia, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri.

FACT
You can do something to help relieve hunger in America: donate food or money to a food bank or other anti-hunger organization, volunteer your time, educate yourself and others on real solutions to hunger that address poverty and access to and distribution of food and other resources.
