The homosexual agenda

Oh come now, equal rights? You've got them. Nobody has taken a thing from you or changed anything. It's the same as it ever was. You are only denied your choice of marriage partner and that is as old as Solomon.
 
Question? Does talking out of both sides of your mouth hurt, or does it come natural to you?

 
Would you care to elaborate on what has changed? To my knowledge homosexual marriage has never happened. It has certainly not happened in the last 228 years.

Either way, isn't someone forcing someone? You easily see me wanting what I see as equal rights as something that I shouldn't be allowed to have, therefore forcing me to follow your beliefs. Yet you can only see the other side of the coin, where me wanting what I see as equal rights as forcing you to allow me to have them.

Pot... kettle, kettle... pot.



...do you think I hate you, as a person? (trust me...this is going somewhere. I'll reply after 1900 on 29 AUG04)
 
RBC introduces pro-gay plan

TORONTO (CP) -- Thousands of Royal Bank clerks are being asked to display rainbow stickers at their desks and cubicles to promote a safe work environment for gays, lesbians, and bisexuals.

The rainbow sticker program is being organized by an employee diversity group within a department of the bank and targets 2,000 clerks at a Royal Bank "warehouse" in Ontario.

The three-month pilot project dubbed "rainbow space" mirrors a U.S. program to promote gay pride used in colleges known as "safe space."

"During the Nazi regime, a pink triangle was used to label gay men and a black triangle was used to label lesbians or other 'anti-socials,' " says a newsletter advocating the use of the rainbow stickers.

"In the late 1970s, the rainbow flag was developed to represent not only pride in having survived and thrived in a world that has often been a hostile place, but also pride in the extraordinary diversity of the community."

Bank spokesman David Moorcroft said Friday the program, which was launched this month, is employee-driven and not part of company policy. He said the Royal Bank's 60,000 employees at locations across Canada will not be asked to participate.

"The program is not going to be rolled out bank-wide," he said.

Moorcroft said the company is open to employee feedback on the initiative.

"Our local diversity committees are always experimenting with trying to figure out how to do a better a job of making all our employees feel included and welcome," he said.

How'd they take it? Are you now a huge bigot?
 
Re: RBC introduces pro-gay plan

Home Depot is, starting next year, considering same-sex domestic partners eligible for coverage under an employee's benefits. But they haven't made us start wearing rainbow pins on our aprons, or other things like that. You know, the "we say it's 'encouraged' but it's really forced" "celebration of diversity."
 
forced tolerance isnt tolerance. You shouldnt have to wear the rainbow stuff unless you choose to. Is there reprecussions for not doing so?
 
I don't have to at Home Depot. It sounds like at Prof's bank, if you don't display a rainbow then you'll be labeled as a homophobic bigot.
 
that shouldnt be that way though. Being labeled as such unless you are homophobic and go around beating up and killing people or hating them simply because they are gay. If you dont have a problem and dont want to wear the rainbow you arent homophobic. I think its sad they are doing that in all honesty

Seems more like the employees are being told that they won't get slapped down if they decide to put these things on their desks.
 
Tough to say. As an employer, there's requests and then there's REQUESTS. Without working there, who knows which this is.

I have to wonder why they're doing this, though. The average consumer doesn't look for diversity training in a bank. He looks for stability and honesty.

Perhaps... two male wages in one household.. no ball and chain or "bread snatchers" (otherwise known as children) to take a chunk out of their income... plausable I guess!
 
Musta been the talk of Muslims, and Christians in the other thread, and then my
homophobia kicking in, and this story, buut...

The saying comes to mind..
"for the love of money is the root of all evil"

They're likely to lose as much as they gain. Just look at Prof's reaction. There's a reason the bankers' world is seen as highly conservative.
