I would hate for it too seem like I'm beating an old rug to death, over and over again; but alas this needs brought to your attention. Now, what you believe is up to you - As long as it doesn't include hating needlessly -, I wont force my beliefs or views onto you, I also wont encourage and/or indoctrinate my beliefs onto young, impressionable children. More so, definitely not when said views are simple and pure hate directed at other people for no good reason whatsoever. As it were however, apparently I'm in the minority in regards to this thought process, at least if you compare me to those in states - and even then, only if you put me in with the right-wingers -. But enough of my fluff, here's the meat of the reason I'm here:
Now, assuming you watched the video, you'll have just witnessed a sicken act on the worst level. First, a child has been taught to fundamentally treat and view people different. Is this wrong? You're damn well right it is. This my dear Nerds, Nerdians and NerdFighters', is called brainwashing. For those who would argue they're simply following their teachings I have this to say. If you wish to teach, by all means, go ahead and spread your message. But if your message is to divide, widen a gap and create problems between a people; you're not teaching, you're brainwashing and it's sicken that you would even try and hide behind the pure barrier that is education.
To brainwash an adult is one thing, but to take and scrape and abuse a child? That's simply taking it too a whole new level of twisted thinking. The price of greatness is responsibility - As old Winston once said -, and alas it appears these cretins are shirking that responability. Their sense of greatness doesn't include a world without hate or despair; it resolves around people pandering to their mind set. A world wherein you cannot be different or think differently, or be seen as some kind of lesser being.
In response to the song, I suggest another mantra altogether.
You scream, you moan and simply despair, when you see another's happiness that you cannot compare. You call it evil, an abomination to lessen this blow, but that doesn't hide or fade their magnificent glow. Happiness is not installed or bought, you cannot remove it through years of pure and utter brainless rot. You may teach your children that paradise is sexually defined, filled with only you and your abominable kind. But here's the golden ticket, the spike too your punch, never mind heaven; god wouldn't even invite you to heavenly lunch.
As always, leave a comment and tell us what you think on the topic. Spread it around, the only way to fight ignorance is to expose it too the world.
Oh, and as always.

Comment by Jamie on June 3, 2012 at 12:30pm I am assuming this was in a regular church. I remember seeing a video about parents from Westboro Baptist Church teaching their kids to chant "god hates fags" and standard issue church goers were up in arms about it, agreeing with everyone else how wrong that was. This video is heartbreaking but not surprising.

Comment by Daniel Kelly on June 2, 2012 at 5:35am Reminds me of Hitler with the children brainwashing in their summer camps. There arguments are so invalid the only people who will not question them is children. It is pathetic
Comment by Dave Tarragon, NerdFighting Herb on June 1, 2012 at 6:33pm I don't mind what people believe... But inflicting it on children is sickening beyond belief. These people are spreading baseless hate about something that will probably never even affect them, AND they're making their children mindlessly repeat these values like parrots.
And they applaud the child. Lord save us...
This makes me feel ashamed to call myself Christian.
Comment by Nirali Sheth on June 1, 2012 at 4:45pm This makes me sick to my stomach. This child probably has no clue what a homosexual is, other than a "sinning deviant." He probably has no clue that it has to do with loving another person. I agree with you completely on this one. As long as you are not teaching someone to hate, it is perfectly okay to spread your beliefs.
Side note, you may want to check your spelling in some places. Sorry, it's the Grammar Nazi in me.
