No, not "how strange"....AND Brokeback didn't get the Oscars all of you thought it would, did it?homosexual agenda be damned!
Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana received an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Brokeback Mountain; Ang Lee received an Academy Award for Best Director for Brokeback Mountain; and Gustavo Santaolalla received an Academy Award for Best Original Score for Brokeback Mountain.
Not to mention that Philip Seymour Hoffman received an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as gay writer, Truman Capote in Capote; and gay animator, John Canemaker received an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film for The Moon and the Son: An Imagined Conversation.
It was a good Academy Awards for gay films and gay filmakers.

*waiting for someone to say, "that's gay," and THEN it would be on-topic *
Oh and since we're talking about the Oscars, I think Crash completely deserved the best picture award. I loved every minute of it.

If you want equality, it's best not to highlight the difference that divides 'you' and 'them'.How about just saying that some talented people won some awards?
Reese Witherspooon received an Academy Award for Best Actress for "Walk the Line." By your reasoning, if we want equality between the sexes, we should just say that a talented person won an award.

Are you saying I should have stated: "How ******, queers, unholy, etc"?How strange.
Not at all, I thought we were joking.

Right, I'm aware. But the point of this thread is to bash the supposed "homosexual agenda" that Brokeback Mountain was apparently forwarding. And I could have told you that it wasn't going to "reign" at the oscars. Phillip Seymore Hoffman is a far better actor than Heath Ledger will ever be. And that is what I was addressing several posts back, that if the Academy wanted to give the major awards to Brokeback simply because it was part of the gay "agenda", then they should keep their Oscar. As it is, the people who touted this as the year of Brokeback Mountain were wrong, and paranoid for no reason.

Fox News said that this year the oscars spotlighted "darker" themes like "homicide bombing", assassinations, terrorism, and homosexuality.wow, homosexuality really equates with all those things doesn't it? do they realy expect us to believe that every time a man kisses a man, many people die?
What's the definition of "darker," then? If a man sleeps with his sisters in a film, no one dies, but that sure as hell could be considered a dark theme.
Maybe instead of "darker," the word you're looking for is "fatal" or "deadly."

we already have several homosexual threads... Why create another one with the purpose of trying to bash gays...
and really have you no thought of your own that your need the bible to tell you whats right and wrong???
So tell me cringe... When you eventually have sex with your wife...(and only after your married.. No hanky panky before!) will you only do it missionary? and only for the sake of having a child? would you accept a blow job if she offered?
See this is what I don't understand by pro homosexual groups or liberals. Why is it that when someone says they think its wrong and says that the Bible denounces it, its gay bashing. It's like Bush saying to the people who don't support HIS war, they are anti-patriotic.
Listen it SAYS in the Bible, old Testament that Sodom and Gomor was destroyed because of their numerous inequities including homesexuality which is a pervasion. I mean this is a behavior that is counterproductive of the natural order of things. It doesn't make sense, it just doesn't and tolerance and understand is another issue. The fact that we condem people who have sex with consenting underage kids or murder that is justified, we still punish them. Why are caressing these people and telling them its fine and do whatever you want? Wrong is wrong and somethings are not subjective, its what it is.
Re: Re: "Brokeback Mountain"- How its effected America.

I should have stopped reading your garbage post right here, but I'm fascinated by ignorant people so I read on...The movie is about relationships, not homosexuality. It really is that simple. It's the sensationalist media and ignorant people like you who give it a subtext as 'gay propaganda'.
Wind your neck in.
lol fair play 2 you! 😄
