were there religious groups at your pride? (try two)
[Poll #1586116]
my ass was showing, so i have deleted and recreated, if you're wondering why you're seeing this twice.
there's a blog post going around at the moment, where a christian group went to a pride parade and held up signs apologizing for how other christians had treated them poorly. and i am pleased to see that happened, and i think it doesn't happen enough.
but some people seem so astonished by christians being at pride at all that i am just wondering, do your local churches not come?
there was an entire uu delegation there, i believe, and enormous stickers being handed out saying "lutherans love me" (which is not entirely true, as it's only the elca that i know of and even they are still discussing acceptable career choices for queers at least they were last time i checked).
any hate the sin love the sinner rhetoric gets your comment frozen if not deleted and you possibly banned. fyi.

I think they are methodists (http://www.flickr.com/photos/87696013@N00/4696500183/) since the logo is with these methodists (http://www.flickr.com/photos/87696013@N00/4697133264/) methodists (http://www.flickr.com/photos/87696013@N00/4697132594/). (extra Methodist pictures because I was raised Methodist and the official UMC stance on same-sex marriage and glb clergy annoys me to this day).
