gay and lesbian matters, rationalism, atheism, freethought, secularism — this is the weblog of the Pink Triangle Trust, the only gay humanist charity
We’re actually working on a survey around religion and gay people’s experiences of discrimination at the moment. This will be released later in the year.
We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.
We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.
Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.
Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.
Note: only a member of this blog may post a comment.
I have long thought that Stonewall was soft on religious homophobia and I
ReplyDeletethink I have said so in G&LH. They were only too ready to have a go at the
Christian Institute and the late Baroness Young, but have been wary of
speaking out against the mainstream variety e.g. the C of E and the Vatican.
However my impression was that this had changed somewhat when they spoke out
not so long ago against the Bishop of Hereford's stance on the gay employee.
Incidentally Vicky Powell was once editor of Gay Times.
