Quote# 49239

[From a subforum on Christian Forums dedicated to 'Christian Persecution']


If you are familiar with the website of Yahoo, which I am sure you are, you may be disturbed to know that Yahoo promotes a homosexual lifestyle to children!

If you weren't aware, Yahoo allows users to create what are known as "avatars." They are animated cartoon characters that can be made to represent the user. They offer many different clothes and backgrounds with which you may accessorize your avatars. I was shocked and appalled to discover that you may dress your avatar in clothing and accessories that are homosexually-themed! Your Yahoo avatar may wear a T-shirt that says "Gay Pride." Your Yahoo avatar may hold a rainbow homosexual flag. Your Yahoo avatar may even be placed upon a background of a "Gay Pride" rally. But if you look through the other choices, you will find that there is not one option to dress these avatars in Christian-themed clothing. There are no T-shirts that proclaim love for Jesus. There are no Christian flags. And there are no church backgrounds! But it is perfectly acceptable for them to promote an immoral lifestyle such as homosexuality to the millions of minors that visit Yahoo on a daily basis!

I encourage all Christians to immediately cut off any ties they may have with the Yahoo website. I will be redirecting my web-based email to G-mail. I have unsubscribed from all Yahoo groups of which I was a member. If you have web hosting through them, find another one immediately! It is quite obvious to me that Yahoo has all the business they need from the homosexual community. Let us show them that they don't need any from the Christian community. I will be praying for the administration of the Yahoo website and will only return to Yahoo when these offensive items are taken down!

My avatar is a picture of your gawd taking it in the ass from john mccain, with palin pushing. It's well worth a giggle!

As soon as this gets around, the fundies will be evacuating Yahoo!Answers en masse! Hooray!

Whew. Now maybe we'll have some actual discussions on Yahoo Answers.

What exactly is a Christian flag?

Personally, I think you are overreacting. However, it would be neat to have avitars with Christian themes for those who want them, as well as Muslem, Buddist, Wiccan and Hindu themes as well. There should also be atheist things as well.

But really, they are just avitars. Don't get your panties in a pucker.

Maybe there are no Christian-themed avatars because there's little demand for them. Have you tried asking, or did you immediately go into persecution mode?

"There are no Christian flags"
No shit.

"There are no T-shirts that proclaim love for Jesus"
There are no vacuum cleaners that proclaim love for Odin, either.

"Let us show them that they don't need any from the Christian community."
Oh, I think they can figure that out without your personal help.

"and will only return to Yahoo when these offensive items are taken down!"
And there was much rejoicing.

Noooooooo, FSTDT.com wouldn't be the same if we couldn't get all those quotes from Yahoo Answers.

I thought the avatar concept was intended to show the user's character. I should also think it suitable to portray oneself proudly, or at least honestly.

I'm more at ease conversing with, say, a flamboyant Elf, than one of the stereotypical Jebus puppy-love things.

Myself, a Numenorean Dwarf halfbreed.

Anyway, go home and grow a personality, murielj.

I play the clarinet and the only instrument is a flute... I'm sooo oppressed!

I wouldn't mind seeing Christian, Muslim, Atheist, Democrat, Republican, etc. on the avatars. How about we get a few swastika and KKK flags?

Ooor, we keep it happy friendly by not displaying ourselves like bumper stickers in cartoon cyber land. The reason for homosexual icons is the same reason there are options to change skin color, eye color, eye shape, and hair color. These are bits of biological traits. Christianity is not biological.

So stop the stupid strike and get a life.... they're avatars for crying out loud!

Making available =/= promoting, jackass.

That's like saying that because there's a church a few blocks from me, my town is "promoting Christianity."

Y'know those ads on TV, between segments of TV shows? THAT is promoting something.

Damn, should I point out to this fruitloop that the people at google make yahoo look like the far right-wing of the GOP? Nah, this should be fun!

Muriel, to put it nicely: you're a retarded, paranoid, stupid fucking cunt. And like someone before already hinted at, Google came out against proposition 8, the anti-gay bill in California, so they should be just as bad as Yahoo! is.

Stop wasting the planet's oxygen already and throw yourself off a bridge.

"If you are familiar with the website of Yahoo,"

As familiar as I am with the laptop of Dell, yes.

"I was shocked and appalled to discover that you may dress your avatar in clothing and accessories that are homosexually-themed!"

Or you may not! WHOA!

"There are no Christian flags"

No there aren't.

"I encourage all Christians to immediately cut off any ties they may have with the Yahoo website."

No, don't tell them that! How else are we supposed to tell who's stupid or inept with technology other than segregating them into Yahoo?!

"I will be redirecting my web-based email to G-mail."

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo

As stupid a comment as this is (if anything, Google is probably more tolerant than Yahoo), I admit I find it odd that there's no Christian stuff on Yahoo. You would think they would go out of their way to cater to such a huge, easily offended audience.

The Internet supports gays and you can find liberal amounts of gay porn, so, please log-off from the Internet FOREVER!

Please! Please!!!

Any suggestion that gays are real people and happy being who and what they are and the fundtard goes off like a roman candle. And of course they can't possibly be xtian - as if Ted Haggard wasn't gay.

Answer this, murieljcompton. Who would want to be a xtian knowing you are one?
