1. Will they pull his hair, scratch him, and then cry?
Elad ,   Jerusalem   (06.16.05)
Being gay is nothing to be proud of. It is nothing to celebrate either. It's something to be treated by a psychiatrist.
2. Marching in Jerusalem...
Daniel ,   Jerusalem   (06.16.05)
Marching in Jerusalem will not gain the recognition you so desperately seek. Even after a thousand parades you will still be nothing more then a bunch of sad perverts lost in a lifestyle based on lust and sin!! Wake up!
3. That is so sick
Emmad ,   Jerusalem   (06.16.05)
To all of you (Gays and Lesbians) , Levae the Wholy Land Alone and go celebrate in North America Where you can celebrate in the streets freely you even can celebrate naked. Toronto has over 1 million Gay, you even might find a good partner. and I agree with # 2 you are nothing just a punch of perverts who has no goal in their lifes.
4. these gay folks are happy...leave them alone!
healthy hetrosexual ,   Israel   (06.16.05)
all they want is to spread some bright colors and joyful cheer throughout this land. since when was this such a bad thing? be as you wish...let others enjoy who they are! ;-)
5. Would you do this in Mecca or Vatican?
akiva ,   Chicago, IL   (06.16.05)
Or any other Holy Place. For Jerusalem it is honored with 10 days of this? What is your agenda other than to make a laughingstock out of the Holy Land?
6. Remember Sodom and Gomorrah
Karen ,   Phoenix, Arizona   (06.16.05)
Thank God the mayor doesn't support the parade. Remember this - God still judges sin and after all these centuries, homosexuality is still sin. Sodom and Gomorrah are gone but the record of their sin lives on. Jerusalem will not follow in their path.
7. Haredi Forum Discusses This Topic
Haredi Forum ,   Jerusalem   (06.17.05)
The forum for Haredim in Israel Has this topic up for discussion its worth checking out - http://haredi.siteburg.com/forum/
8. The Torah prohibits gayism.
JTF.ORG ,   JTF.OEF   (06.17.05)
Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 calls for the death penalty for anyone engaged in "gay sex".
9. Gays in Jerusalem? NO!
C.Russo ,   Tampa   (06.17.05)
Get real #4. Read #5. They should try to "celibrate" their life style in some Islamic state. (At least in democracies they still have their heads.) Now they are trying to put their gay pride propaganda crap in our public libaries. If they want respect, let them earn, it rather than trying to force their lifestyle in front of me.
10. It is an abomination
Dennis ,   Carrollton, USA   (06.17.05)
I say this in the name of the One true Lord who created heaven and earth. Who is One....Holding the parade at all is an abomniation and to do so brings his wrath on us all. For it is a stench in the nostrals of the most High!
11. Gay Parade
Moshico ,   Israel   (06.21.05)
I have to agree with Mayor Uri Lopolianski that this parade can not take place in Jerusalem its a holy city not for just Jews but other religions as well I am sure the pope would also be on Mr. Lopolianski's side.
12. I will be there celebrate a free Jerusalem
Jerusalem ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (06.23.05)
I will be there to celebrate a free and diverse Jerusalem. From all of us who have grown up in this city and love it and who want to see it grow rather then die.
13. One should be crazy to permit this parade
Daniel ,   Russia   (06.27.05)
It is only the dirty agenda of these pervert groups who try to make their lifestyle a worldwide norm. Jerusalem is the city of God who will judge all the people. The sin is also shameful not honourable.
14. Right Wing Terror
Terrence ,   Boston USA   (07.02.05)
Shame on the reactionary residents of Jerusalem for causing the violence at the Gay Pride event. I am forever shocked at hearing how 'religious' people advocate and indeed carry-out atrocities in the name of their God. My God created and loves everyone, unconditionally. Any other God is false.
15. BLIND HATRED
VINNY MAGILL ,   N.IRELAND   (07.02.05)
HATRED OF HOMOSEXUALS IS NOT OF GOD, GOD DETESTS THE SIN BUT WOULD RATHER SEE THEM TURN TO HIM. VIOLENCE AGAINST HOMOSEXUALS IS ALSO ANTI-GOD & UNACEPTABLE. IF THEY DON'T CHANGE THEN GOD ALONE WILL JUDGE & CONDEMN THERE SIN.
