“This is Ryan Murphy’s (creator of “Glee”) latest depraved initiative to promote his gay agenda,” Dan Gainor, vice president for Business and Culture at Media Research Center, told ABC News.
The Fox show on Tuesday was centered around Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” – or what Glee club leader Will Schuester called the queen of self-love’s anthem to acceptance. The “assignment” this week for the New Directions students was accepting who they are – “the best and worst parts” – including their nose (Rachel), trouty mouth (Sam), slanted brown eyes (Tina), and homosexuality (Kurt, Santana, and Karofsky).
Yeah, what an “agenda.” Lots of gay kids in an extremely talented high school glee club has no bearing on reality whatsoever.
Calling McKinley High the “gayest high school in the history of mankind, Gainor told ABC, “This is clearly Ryan Murphy’s vision of what growing up should be, not most of America’s. It’s a high school most parents would not want to send their kids too.”
When he’s not busy telling kids to get off his lawn, Gainor should visit a public high school sometime, because gay kids are coming out younger and younger and it’s indeed becoming quite common for there to be lots of out gay kids, yes, in high school. So that’s the wingnut “Dan Gainor.” Let’s see how another wingnut is feeling about the television show featuring musical numbers and positive messages:
“We are not ‘slaves to our biology’ unless we choose to make ourselves so by believing it to be the case,” said Chuck Colson, a prominent evangelical and founder of Prison Fellowship Ministries, in an earlier commentary.
“[S]aying that biology is somehow normative is not the same thing as saying that is determinative. We are free to choose how we behave, both for good and for ill.”
Is the felon conceding that homosexuality is biological in origin? What’s that sound? Oh yes, the sound of fundamentalist wingnuts moving the goalposts, yet again. One more wingnut:
Lane Palmer of Dare 2 Share Ministries noted that the only way everyone was born was as fallen, sinful beings. Fortunately, that sinful life can be redeemed.
“Lady Gaga might sing about a sinful lifestyle being the design God had for her, but I promise you He (God) has something infinitely better for her, and you, and me,” he said.
Yes, please continue to make yourself feel better about your boring life by attempting to put yourself up on a morally superior pedestal over Lady GaGa. Tell yourself that your notion of a deity has better plans for, um, Lady GaGa, if only she would abandon her success to become a wingnut. That will work.
Maybe wingnuts should just stop watching the television.
Oh, yes. I’m sure Lady GaGa’s absolutely sick of her fame and fortune, and is just dying for some wingnut to teach her how to lose her fans and feel guilt every time she thinks about enjoying her life for Jesus.
The idea that if homosexuality is biological, then it’s a disease like alcoholism that must be suppressed, has been in vogue for some time.
I know! Lady GaGa must really wish she had what those fundamentalist Christians have, with their shame and their lying and their pursed lips.
If Lady Gaga had no talent, her IQ were 80 points lower than it is, and she pumped her face full of botox and collagen, converted to the most ignorant brand of fundamentalist biblethumbing, and then breathed helium before every interview, she could be the next Victoria Jackson. If she topped it off with a sex change she could be the next Billy Baldwin.
The show Brothers and Sisters is pretty gay too, but I never hear any kvetching about that one. I assume because it’s on later and not considered a ‘kid’s show’. I wish we had shows like Glee when I was in high school. Back then we didn’t even exist, except for some crazy homosexuals rioting at some bar in Greenwich Village ‘because Judy Garland just died’.
There is always trouble whenever the wingnuts stop watching the 700 club.
apparently most people don’t have a problem with the GLEE story lines because there sure is a lot of people watching it. And it’s just not teenagers.
I’m glad the Glee is on to raise visibility and help teens. But they interrupt the dialogue to break out in song and dance way too much.
Gee, they could just use their free agency and not watch it. But personal responsibility isn’t something they actually exercise–it’s just a term they throw out as an excuse to deny poor people and sick people much needed aid.
You know, I’m not a fan of “Glee”, but if watching it will help p**s off the Religious Reich, I’ll do it. (And… okay… it is kind of a cute show.)
The wingnutters need to get use to it because we are out and NOT going back in…WINGNUTTERS GET USE TO IT!
We had our own “gay table” at High School cause of our size, and this is on just ONE of the lunch periods (there were two). This was 6-10 years ago, so there might be two by now.
