Comments on: Not by the neck, gay guy! http://www.owlspotting.com/2006/09/18/not-by-the-neck-gay-guy/ Writings and whereabouts Wed, 23 Dec 2009 00:32:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: just a guy http://www.owlspotting.com/2006/09/18/not-by-the-neck-gay-guy/comment-page-1/#comment-1587 just a guy Thu, 21 Sep 2006 08:52:43 +0000 http://www.owlspotting.com/2006/09/18/not-by-the-neck-gay-guy/#comment-1587 Damn you and your public brain. I wanted to be the one to write the gripping critique on this in-your-face social commentary. Though on second thought maybe its better that I didn't. I probably would have made some cliched reference to art imitating life or vice versa. You smell what I'm stepin' in? I thought it was well done as a play, great atmosphere at Teatru 74 and interesting concept of having the play take place amongst the audience. The subject matter and charcterization was also spot on delivering moments of intensity as well as laughter. Though your review was good I was hoping you were going to be able to tie in our post play green room discussion on pros and cons of various hair removal techniques. I know, I know, I posess a never-ending source of material for you to blog about. The pleasure is mine. Damn you and your public brain.

Just keep it on the down low that Christ never spoke against gays because we'd like to use xenophobia as a control device.

We've just finished using Church money to solve all other issues: no more beggars, no more orphans, and now it's time to concetrate on gay marriage. Total waste of funds here. I believe it's bad idea not only because the money behind it could be put to better use, but also because this is still Romania: the country who can barely stand a gay pride parade. Who are we kidding, we are not open-minded enough for all the debates we so gladly import. This is so tipically Romanian.

I have often found that the vague non-answer regarding where the funding/supplies for a particular project are coming from is a hallmark of the American evangelical churches. Perhaps this is related to the anti-spousal abuse campaign that was taking place in the center? I wouldn't be surprised... You should follow up on this.
