New Article on Nuke on MSN: Don't Read If You Have High Blood Pressure

Well said, Straight is right.
 
Think about it everyone - we have taken the Bible out of every aspect of society and our own lives, and what has it done for us?  Do you not see the path that our world is taking?
 
And the comments about hate and bigotry...this is *not* about hate.  Well, maybe it is - I personally do not hate the person for being gay, but I hate the act.  You can say that someone is born with it, but don't we all have temptations and demons in our lives that we have to deal with?  Do you just ignore the homosexuality part of the Bible and say that it's okay to be gay--while killing, rape, murder, adultery, etc. are wrong?  NO!  It's ALL wrong.  What happens when a serial killer gives into his temptations?  He KILLS.  What about a pedophile?  A child is scarred for the rest of his/her life.  I could go on and on...
 
Bottom line?  It's wrong.  I don't hate gay people, and God doesn't hate them either...but it's up to them to follow what the Bible says instead of their own selfish desires.  We are so wrapped up in what WE want instead of what GOD wants...are we prepared when we get to Heaven to say, "Sorry God, my needs were greater than yours?"

This is the kind of ridiculous nonsense that's being posted on a mainstream posting board.  Now, I know why P&G will never relent in their censoring of Luke and Noah.  If this kind of comment represents even 15-25% of soap's mainstream, then P&G would be fools to take the financial risk of losing bigoted, idiotic those viewers.  But according to the article, their viewership has had less of a slip in ratings than other soaps, and god knows that ATWT is one of the shittiest soaps on the air.

P&G knows that the gay 'ship is bringing in new "diverse" viewers, but by not having them do anything sexual, they are not losing their homophobic viewers. It's a delicate dance of bullshit and corporate sponsored hate.

What I don't understand is why the writers cannot adapt to the censorship.  Look at the films of the 40s--censored, yet the dialogue was risque to compensate for what they couldn't show.  The ATWT writers did this once, in the infamous fod = sex conversation, and they can continue to do this.  Write some sexy dialogue, have them put their arms around each other's waists, close the door and fade to black.  There you have it: sex.  The next day, they're making eyes at each other and exchanging innuendo: post-sex.  This kind of coded communication can be even hotter than people making out in elevators and such.

As proof, watch Bogie and Bacall in The Big Sleep.  One of the hottest coded conversations of all time starts at 1:30.
