What an absolute stink these Sexual Orientation Regulations are causing, F.U. notes. As the nation’s over powerful homosexual lobby gets its handbags out, and the nation’s much maligned Churchy types get the Big Book out – so, who’s right and who’s wrong?
Well, truth be told, F.U. thinks neither of them are ‘right’, but then F.U. maintains that neither of them have the monopoly on morality.
What does stink, according to Mr. Urquhart is not the rightful defiance of prejudice against homosexuals, nor the outdated religious orthodoxy of a mainstream religion, but the intolerable influence of the Church of New Labour, and the preachy gits proclaiming themselves Bishops of Morality.
Why does the New Labour project and all its vile adherents feel the need to make moral judgments for religious groups, faiths and people of conscience?
Why shouldn’t Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Muslims, etc be able to make their own decision on homosexual practice, and ultimately use their religious principles to inform services such as adoption agencies?
In effect, the rights of a minority group are being elevated above those of an entire set of religious faiths. Why should the state interfere in the religious principles of individuals? Should it not be the state’s role to ensure that individuals of conscience have that precise freedom to make moral judgments?
Anyone who knows F.U. personally will be aware that he is a libertarian, and does not believe in discrimination against homosexuals, bisexuals, try-anything-sexuals, you name it, but he does object to the state condemning people who hold strong beliefs – rightly or wrongly – and supports their right to practice their faith, and hold their own beliefs on sex and other personal matters, within the boundary of the law.
In short the state, which is now the pulpit of the Church of New Labour with its relentless hatred of strong held belief, tradition, conscience and individuality has overstepped the mark.
F.U. has to laugh at an amusing comment made by a Crossbench Peer in the Lords, last week, which somewhat sums up the ludicrous nature of the Labour experiment. Lord Moran said: "People may begin to wonder if they (the Government) are planning to make homosexuality compulsory.”
