Cause you know, Ken Hutcherson has nothing better to do

Quote
A Washington state-based pastor now hopes to launch an effort to reclaim the word "gay" from the LGBT community and presumably liberate it from its sexuality-related definition, returning it to meaning "happy" or full of "joy."

Antioch Bible Church Pastor Ken Hutcherson, who is also the official spokesperson of the Stand For Marriage Coalition, has penned a column for WND.com in which he says he'd like to "shout loud and proud" that he is gay.

I understand that the term had a different meaning back in the day but dude...word's meaning change over the years.  Trying to reverse change like that is just....well stupid.

Ironbtie-then again this is coming from this guy so....

I wonder if he would be interested in doing the same for “faggot”.

That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one. ;)

This winter we're planning to burn some faggots and actually get some use out of our fireplace. Though, full-size faggots would be a little big. Meh, we'll chop them up.

Also, I think there's a few mainpage quotes from dumbasses trying to take the word "gay" back, as well as the rainbow.

I'm bored enough; wanna take the cross back from them? After all, people were crucified before and after Jesus supposedly was... the cross is not inherently a Xian symbol.

I've always disliked the word "egregious," but I guess there's not much that can be done about that.
I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.

Reminds me of the time I was about nine or ten and wearing some fluorescent rainbow leggings and t-shirt* to visit my -great-great-grandaunt in hospital. She told me I looked quite gay, I looked at her, and my Mum had to sheepishly explain that 'gay' meant something else these days... and then I told her I knew what she meant by it.

*It was the early 1990s and my mother put me in fluoro stuff so she wouldn't lose me.

Okay, I agree. Gay needs to go back to what it meant before homosexual.

From now on, gay means a female prostitute.

*sigh*  What amazes me is how these people think they will always be the victor in their little crusades even though reality repeatedly tries to smack them back in place.

I've started a clock to count the amount of time it takes for the news to leak out that Ken Hutcherson is, in fact gay - and not just in the old-fashioned sense.

History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

Wouldn't rebranding the term gay as happy be a benefit to the homosexual community (and counter all the gay=terrible propaganda)?  I don't think the fundies have thought this one through.....must be too desperate to think clearly.

Eh... it doesn't matter, because whining about words changing meaning is rather pointless.

Sounds silly, but while on this topic, I would like to "take back" the swastika and all those viking symbols that the neo-nazis and racists have stolen.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!
