31. Gay pride through Jerusalem
Judela Shalom ,   Israel, Haifa   (11.01.06)
A event like this to hold in the holy city for, Jewish, Christians and Muslims is definitely "provocative" and it drives holiness out of the city.
32. #30 How do gays promote society
(11.01.06)
when they cant even make children, you want a higher population go to the religious and as person in WADC you have no clue whats going on. So STFU
33. No decency....
Yossi ,   San Diego   (11.01.06)
...in the part of the gay morons! This time, I will have to agree with the religious community; the gay don't have to force their point down everybody's throats everytime they feel like it, especially to the religious beleivers. As an atheist, I would side on this issue with the religious community and do whatever it takes to stop this parade...whatever it takes!
34. GAYS HAVE NO REPECT FOR HOLY SITES.
KELLY ,   FL,   (11.01.06)
BUT THEY ASK PEOPLE AT THE SAME TIME TO REPECT THEM.
35. #28, G-d can take care of Himself
Yisraeli ,   TA IL   (11.01.06)
He doesnt need these savages to fight His battles.
36. Kol Hakavod...
Yossi ,   San Diego   (11.01.06)
...to the Haredim! You don't have to be ashamed to stand up for your principles...the gay community should be ashamed for this blatant provocation! This is from an atheist who believes in decency.
37. Eyda Hypocrisy
Dovy ,   Toronto   (11.01.06)
They are sickening. They don't care about the worst sin, which is the Zionist state. As far as they are concerned, if they stop the Gay Parade, life under the Zionists will be just peachy keen.....They never demonstrate against the State. The Eyda/Satmar leadership are Zionists worse than Agudah or Mizrachi put together!!
38. 28 mainly, but to you all
ajb   (11.01.06)
firstly I have to say what I am reading her hurts my soul immensly, there obviously should not be a gay pride march anywhere in Eretz Yisroel, let alone the holiest city. But H (28) not only the haredim keep Hashems laws I am not haredi and I keep all his commandments out of love for his infinite greatness, one day all the 'lost' of Israel will find out in this world or the next. MOSHIACH NOW to end this madness.
39.  GREAT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RALLY AGAINST PARADE
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (11.01.06)
No one has a right to impose abomiantion in our city. This parade has NOTHING to do with gays rights. It has everything to do with "rub in face " anti religious hate. I'm not hareidi, but for this matter i admire their militancy take your beautiful parade to afganistan, Iran, vatican, irak and then talk about it - good luck
40. #14, Leah
Brigham Young ,   Utah, USA   (11.01.06)
I have you beat Leah, I've had 50 wives and 57 children. Some 200+ grand children...and I lost count after that. Congrats on breeding, you'll soon be giving rabbits a run for the money! Before you start bashing mormans, just remember we agree with your stance on gays. We're intollerant too!!!!
41. Wonder how many of the haredim are secretly gay?
moshe ,   ny ny   (11.01.06)
42. make fun of the Bible. God will torture you for that too.
deranged semen pervs   (11.01.06)
43. Some of them Haredim are really cute !!
Ari ,   jerusalem   (11.01.06)
44. I agree. Some of them Haredim are really cute !!
Shimon ,   Hebron   (11.01.06)
45. Lets face it...to respect the holy sites...
moses ,   sinai, israel   (11.01.06)
Lets face it. For gays to respect a holy site, they have to think that something is wrong with them, and therfore they are defiling the site. That AINT never gonna happen. simple psychology. So give up your rants and let live. They are only human.
46. Reply to semsem - 6.
James ,   Glasgow, Scotland   (11.01.06)
What utter rubbish unless of course you can prove what you say because I have never seen in the Old Testament anything that alludes to David being homosexual. In case you don't know God considers homosexuality as a sin. David was God's chosen, that is righteous before God, now you tell me what homosexual is righteous before God?
47. God's Laws.
James ,   Glasgow, Scotland   (11.01.06)
So some of you keep God's Laws. Perhaps some of you imagine that you do but being honest none do. Do you really love the Lord God with all your heart, soul and might? Do you love your neighbour as yourself? These are the two great commandments and I defy any of you to say that you do these things from birth until death. Yes homosexuality is wrong, is a sin, but no more than the sin you commit by those silly statements about the Law. Why on earth is a Messiah to come if any can obey the Law when man is capable by himself? What arrogance and hypocracy.
48. #19, you scored a point.
AK   (11.01.06)
49. #7 andy
just a jew ,   Jerusalem   (11.01.06)
you are at ramat hasharon What do you know what's going on here? from ynet ??LOL
50. to seth, the not Shet.
jimmie c. boswell ,   denver colo 80203   (11.01.06)
serving for the sake of HaShem is greater, and with more curage than serving anything else.
51. not in any city sould this be held.
jimmie c boswell ,   denver colo   (11.01.06)
just to say it should not be held in Yeroosalem, is being a hypocrite to G-D'S word forbidding this anywhere. and to say it is allowed in any other city but this one. do not wish what you don't want imposed on you, to be imposed on your neighbors. when HaShem's command is to offer them, only gifts of bundles of sticks. so they can't do this anymore. shalomcha?
52. the whole earth is supposed to be holy.
j c boswell (adam*) ,   denver colo   (11.01.06)
and we are not to allow any unholyness to transgress upon it. and i do not think HaShem calls them as humans in TheTorah. but as only animals and psychiatrist do not good preachers, no matter what they preach without respect for G-D. because if they were that good of preachers they would be televangilists, still not being truthfull either. shalomcha?
53. 47
j c boswell ,   denver colo   (11.01.06)
well if you are not keeping any, not even one of HaShem's Laws. why should any one listen to you. disbelief in total disreguard of HIS Laws is not the love of G-D in action. and loving thy neighbor does not include, loving the act of them poisioning you or your children, or anyone else. and your silly statment against the law is even dumber. and TheMosheeach is comming, because none of you believe this is TheTorah, HaShem G-D always is actualy still giving. so TheMosheeach shall be comming for the same reason in TheTorah as last time here in Parashas Bereeshees, prior to Parashas Noach. and try and convince all of you not to get the whole world flooded just again. because without repent! you are going to get TheWhole Torah exactly as it is written. shalomcha!
54. out of Jerusalem
schmoozer ,   Toronto Canada   (11.01.06)
they should leave the holy city alone... i dont understand why the organizer didn't pick Tel-Aviv
55. SHAME ON YOU, CHAIM POTOK
Arik Silvermman ,   Milwaukee USA   (11.01.06)
These are not nice people, despite what a novelist tries to paint them.
56. Gay Parade
leah amdur ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.01.06)
No 3. Until the haredim serve in the army like the Kippa shruga they should get no benefits says No. 3. This is nonsense the kippa shruga served in the army and they were vilified by the Israeli public and the government. Gush Katif was ripped away from them and the whole world hated them. Get your facts straight. Calling haredim parasites is ridiculous. They serve Am Israel in many ways if not for them and all the other people who stand up for Hashem there would be no Am Israel.
57. Gay Parade
leah amdur ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.01.06)
No. 6 just because you are Gay, do not look at the world through your Gay perspective. King David was not gay. You obviously are Torah illiterate
58. The Gay parade
leah amdur ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.01.06)
No. 32 BH they can't make children.
59. Chaos in Yisrael
Lover of G-d&Yisrael ,   USA   (11.01.06)
War, threats, fear, corruption, persecution... The answer to it all from the ONE Who has THE answer: " IF My people, which are called by My Name, shall HUMBLE themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK MY FACE, and TURN from their wicked ways; THEN will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND." II Chronicles 7:14 This Word is for Yisrael first, and later, because of the great mercy of the L-rd, for any nation that humbles itself before G-d, and repents of sin, turning from it forever, on a national scale. G-d wants to revisit Yisrael in all His Glory to sanctify His Name before all the earth. He wants the world to know that HE is the Defender and Migdal Chazak of the Children of Yisrael. But Yisrael must take the first step and obey the words written above in quotes, taken from the Tanach. They are conditional. "IF my People...Then will I." He will keep His Covenant. The gay parade is not the only sin...and it is not being justified...It cannot and must not be allowed in Eretz Yisrael. But all sin, even secret sin, blocks the blessings of G-d upon His People. G-d sees it all. With deep love, I implore the precious People of Yisrael, to turn to HaShem with ALL your hearts so that His favor will shine upon You without hindrance. Only then will He intervene for You and do for You what You cannot do for Yourselves...He will stop your enemies. Through repentance, LET G-d arise and His enemies be scattered! Blessings and all my love to the people of Yisrael.
60. Gay??? Parade
Barbara   (11.01.06)
I wil never understand why "gays" always need to parade themselves world wide. They should be told however that the Jerusalem Parade will be held on the 66th anniversary of KRISTALNACHT - thus to parade their bodies in Jerusalem on this day is a terrible terrible insult to Jews worldwide, and especially, of course to our very Holy City of Jerusalem, and last but not least to the survivors of the Holocaust.
