“God Hates Fags”
In the tradition of Jesus Camp, there’s actually a website called “God Hates Fags – Love God’s Way” And they’ve been kind enough to post a list of bands and musicians that God doesn’t want you to listen to because they “promote the gay agenda” The list includes Barry Manilow, Cole Porter, Jay Z, Ravi Shankar, Frank Sinatra, Madonna, Lisa Loeb, Clay Aiken, Corrine Baily Raye, Elton John (who they point out , “Is really GAY!!”), The Doors, The Killers, The Village People (OK, I’ll give them that one), and many more. “Safe” bands include: The Right Brothers (see below), Cyndi Lauper, Evanescence, and a bunch of other Christian bands I’ve never heard of.
If you look at their website, they refer to their patrons as simply “corporate”, just like Tom Cruise (really gay?) in the movie “The Firm”. They apparently believe also that they are being censored because MySpace and Google removed their videos, because they violated their sense of a “community standard” Bravo, MySpace and Google. As private companies, they have a right to do this. It’s not censorship.
They actually have a song with a video called “God Hates Fags” with profound lyrics like “Righteous fags get on your knees, there lies no virtue in sodomy” I swear if I hadn’t seen this with my own eyes, I would never believe it. And the video is hilarious when you look at the “queen” who sings it. This guy makes Ted Haggard seem like a nice guy! Check it out, before YouTube removes it again:
I should point out that according to Wikipedia some people believe this is all a parody and that the singer and webmaster, Donnie Davies, is really an actor named Joey Oglesvie. Apparently Wikipedia has even removed the post three times according to their Deletion Policy. Even if it is a parody, it’s a deplorable one. If you listened to the song (and the one by “The Right Brothers” posted below, they both have a ridiculous pop “hook” which tries to in a way, hypnotize you to get the chorus to stay in your mind.
Speaking of Ted Haggard, now that he’s out of gAy A:
Thanks to Tyson for telling me about that
