Christian Fundamentalist Pop: "God Hates Fags"
Their website is full of half truths. But nothing annoyed me more then this bullshit...:
"Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons. We can only record its moods, and chronicle their return. With us time itself does not progress. It revolves. It seems to circle round one centre of pain."
--Oscar Wilde (reformed homosexual)"
Oscar Wilde was never a reformed homosexual.
He himself reffered to his sexuality as Socratic. Wilde and some within his upper-class social group also began to speak about homosexual law reform, and their commitment to "The Cause" was formalised by the founding of a highly secretive organisation called the Order of Chaeronea, of which Wilde was a member.
Wilde was arrested on April 6, 1895 at the Cadogan Hotel, London, and charged with "committing acts of gross indecency with other male persons" under Section 11 of the 1885 Criminal Law Amendment Act. Despite pleas by friends to flee the country, Wilde chose to stay and martyr himself for his cause.
Prison was unkind to Wilde's health and after he was released on May 19, 1897 he spent his last three years penniless, in self-imposed exile from society and artistic circles. He went under the assumed name of Sebastian Melmoth, after the famously "penetrated" Saint Sebastian, and has since become a gay icon.
Nevertheless, Wilde lost no time in returning to his previous pleasures. According to Douglas, Ross "dragged [him] back to homosexual practices" during the summer of 1897, which they spent together in Berneval. After his release, he also wrote the famous poem The Ballad of Reading Gaol. Wilde spent his last years in the Hôtel d'Alsace, now known as L'Hôtel, in Paris, where he was notorious and uninhibited about enjoying the pleasures he had been denied in England. Again according to Douglas, "he was hand in glove with all the little boys on the Boulevard. He never attempted to conceal it." In a letter to Ross, Wilde laments, "Today I bade good-bye, with tears and one kiss, to the beautiful Greek boy. . . he is the nicest boy you ever introduced to me." Just a month before his death he is quoted as saying, "My wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. One or other of us has got to go."
Doesn't the Bible say "Thou Shalt Not LIE"? God hates liars too...
Christian Fundamentalist Pop: "God Hates Fags"
Let me point this out again: THIS IS REAL! It's not a satire or parody, as much as it blatantly feels like it! From the MySpace link (above):
Also, if you want confirmation; check out the URL given in the video (LoveGodsWay.org): And what'e even better, they quote Oscar Wilde as a 'reformed homosexual' - when he was anything but! (he was actually sent down for buggary you retarded American fundamentalist fucks!) Plus, there's a hilarious (and highly inaccurate) 'Gay Bands' section with 'Morrissey(?questionable?)' listed!Introducing the Gayest Sport on Earth!
to quote MST3K "Oscar Wilde wishes he was that gay."
