Ooh, you are awful! Come on now, don't mince your words. Sorry, I just have a bent for that sort of thing.

Maybe I should explain that none of those quips is homophobic. If one can’t laugh at oneself...
But being told that its OK to be homosexual provided you don’t talk about it, is the same sort of comment as telling black and brown people to “go back to where they came from“ (even when they were born in the next street).

Hadn't seen that ....... brilliant Popular opinions based on myth and beliefs can lead to serious bother, especially when promulgated by a "mine is the true way" nutter. Just look at Brexit. You still haven't told us why you think the UK should stay in the EU. Are you altruistic.... or is there something in it for you?

What you Telemachus or I like to do in the privacy of our own homes should be of no concern to anyone other than our partners. If I publicly declare my preferences, and subsequently discover that as a consequence I am demonised, ridiculed or humiliated, I have no one to blame but myself. Rog If you reveal that you are heterosexual you won’t be demonised, ridiculed or humiliated because that is seen as normal. Probably because it is normal.

What does sexuality, or gender,have to do with life after death unless you are suggesting that anything other than being hetrosexual,which you see as 'The norm' precludes you?

Agree that this is the effective truth to a certain extent, i.e. if nobody knows they can't demonise/ridicule/humiliate. I do think that those doing the demonise/ridicule/humiliate stuff should get some blame though - I have no problem with Nick's stand/thoughts/statements about homosexuality and think it is a good thing it can be openly discussed most of the time without the demonise/ridicule/humiliate stuff.
I just wonder whether Nick feels the same about religion though...

When are you moving back to live in poverty, sack cloth and ashes with the rest of us true brit's? What's that you muttered? Pirrko won't let you? What a wise witch she is.

No of course not, religious people should preferably be sent to concentration camps and gassed, or failing that sent to institutions to be cured using aversion therapy, and/or receive drug therapy so as remove any religious tendencies from their sick minds. And if all/any of that is disallowed by the modern snowflake PC brigade, then at least they can keep their traps shut and not admit to being religious nutters. It’s disgusting!

You once said on here that because my parents were religious they were 'part of the problem' - it hurt me... Now I know your true thoughts!

Telemachus must try to grasp that he is not the centre of the universe. If my sexual preference is for young girls, or animals, or anal sex, or for bondage ... I will rightly risk ridicule, derision or humiliation. If I introduce myself as "hello, I'm Roger and I'm a vegan" people may take the pee. It seems to me that it serves no purpose to expose our beliefs to others, but I fully accept others may wish to anyway. The words sexual preference, do not relate only to homosexuality ... ask Mr Stabby and Shania. I believe I referred to both our sexual preferences ... so clearly your being gay was not the point ... somethings are private. I love my wife, we are great mates ... but we do not kiss and caress in public ... these things are ours and private. I leave you to your ridiculous allegations, there is little point to continuing ... have a great day ... I'm off to work Rog

Perhaps it came to you in a vision from the Virgin Mary? Now you think you know my true thoughts ... but you could be wrong.
