It's amazing. But apparently gay people have monsters growing out of their necks! Or maybe it's dentists. Dentists have monsters growing out of their necks. And they rape angels! All the time, it's all about the angel-rape.

And G-d, despite having written a Bible full of tons of stuff, has an amazing preoccupation with homosexuality. Not shrimp, and not charity, and certainly not loving thy neighbor as thyself, it's all about the sex.

(I suspect that this says more of the minds of the readers than the writer)

This is only vaguely relevant, but it's an interesting point nonetheless. To me, the UK always seems more of a liberal country than the USA, with religion having less dominance especially in areas such as the media (I believe if someone said 'God bless the UK', they'd probably be laughed off the air). But I've always seen it implied that any direct religious/Christian teaching (in a sort of 'now class, we're all going to say a prayer to thank God for this wonderful [insert object here]') is banned in schools in the USA, whereas, as far as I'm aware, UK schools are required by law to have some form of collective worship each day. And, unless the school is specifically Muslim/Hindu/Sikh/Jewish/Catholic/Etc, the worship is broadly Christian. My grammar school had us down at the cathedral three times a year, assemblies with prayers at least twice a week, Jerusalem as the school hymn and The Prayer of St Francis read at us at every available oppertunity...
