As an atheist I'm not particularly bothered.

Interesting though that they aren't brave enough to make a similar production, only this time taking aim at Mohammed and Allah. I wonder how that would end?

A gay in a manger

No dick for his bed

The hairy young stud

Grabbed hold of his head

I want you to suck me

And if you heed my calls

I'll jump in your manger

And empty my balls

Perhaps the bottom line for this kind of thing would be "You don't actually have to watch it" - and that would apply as much to Southern Baptists as Muslims.

Buddha (and his followers) wouldn't give two hoots, "fill your boots" Buddha would say, just do it mindfully. Jesus would not approve, but he's made up, more importantly, Paul would not approve.

Correct. And while we're hating the Muslims for objecting, let's not forget that another ME religion would likely not be too forgiving about "Moses and Elijah, the Bum Buddies" (cumming soon to a hypothesis near you)

Here's some Christian reaction, anyway. Love your neighbour has its limits, eh?

The boys and girls of York Uni will ...

Actually ... Apologies, I'm sure they would be offended at that clumsy gender assumption on my part.

The Rainbow-Gendered theatrical artists of York Uni will be delighted if their 'Stunningly Brave' production garners publicity and controversy on account of its subject matter and provocative characterisation.

The little darlings live for attention.

I'm sure Channel 4 will want to broadcast it live over the festive period too... especially if the Three Wise Men are portrayed as, and by, Drag artists, and on the strict condition that Judas is played by a man who looks like Andrew Tate.

'Josiah Diamond, 21, a second-year politics and international relations student, wrote to the university raising concerns that the play discriminated against Christians..

He added that such a production would not be tolerated against Muslims and asked whether it would permit a performance called A Gay in Mecca.

I doubt very much that their protest will be on the same scale as the Charlie Hebdo slaughter in Paris. As myself and others have previously said, they don't have the balls to portray a gay Mohammed or Allah.

That being said, Christians are not new to persecution; that they wouldn't kick up a fuss about it speaks to the validity of their faith, tolerance and compassion. Albeit misguided.

As an atheist I could not care less.

Activists make me laugh though. I wonder how many of these students would be prepared to put on a similar performance using one of the other religions prevalent in the UK. My opinion probably zero. It seems Christianity is fare game only because there are unlikely to be any repercussions.

Performative pish.

Just to try and remove the stick before someone pokes a hornet nest, there's really no need to call someone 'far right'. It seems to be proliferating on here and it just adds another layer of division. Let's pull together, not apart.

Gayify an Old Testament story, and you won't just have the Muslims (for whom Jesus is a major prophet) on your back. You'll have Netanyahu, the Chief Rabbi, the CST and the Jerusalem Post lobbying MP's to punish your antisemitism. So let's have a little less unidirectional finger pointing, eh?

I didn’t say Buddha or his followers would care. I said they wouldn’t dare do it. You don’t mention Allah I notice.

The point is, they wouldn’t dare because the woke lefties would cry foul, racism, and any other ism they could muster. But they won’t worry about upsetting or insulting Christians.

They can do whatever they want to Buddha, it's not a question of not daring, the jolly fellow has been mocked many times, it's irrelevant. Islam is, obviously, a whole different kettle of fish. Also, there's no need to chuck 'woke lefties' in there.

You missed my point. Read the first line of my response. Mocking Buddha or being disrespectful would be condemned by the woke lefties, yes I said it again. You will probably still misunderstand again.

Yep, I double checked, I still understand. It's a shame that you feel that way. "

I didn’t once suggest that the followers of Islam and Buddha would do anything in the circumstances, only that those with a woke agenda wouldn’t allow it, whilst not caring about an attack on Christianity. I’m pretty sure you missed the point.

Correct. And while we're hating the Muslims for objecting, let's not forget that another ME religion would likely not be too forgiving about "Moses and Elijah, the Bum Buddies" (cumming soon to a hypothesis near you)

Here's some Christian reaction, anyway. Love your neighbour has its limits, eh?

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15392985/Christian-students-fury-university-allows-nativity-play-Gay-Manger-ahead-starring-close-friends-Mary-Jo-Queen-Herod-new-King-Gays.html

'Josiah Diamond, 21, a second-year politics and international relations student, wrote to the university raising concerns that the play discriminated against Christians..

He added that such a production would not be tolerated against Muslims and asked whether it would permit a performance called A Gay in Mecca.

Mr Diamond said that many Christian students at the university plan to protest outside the building on the night of the play after being angered by the decision to allow it to proceed.'

•••••••••••

I doubt very much that their protest will be on the same scale as the Charlie Hebdo slaughter in Paris. As myself and others have previously said, they don't have the balls to portray a gay Mohammed or Allah."

Very true

Obviously your comment is tongue in cheek, but, if jesus was a real person he would have been an apocalyptic jew, definitely not gay, performed various miracles as a child, mostly withering people, had a twin brother, visited India where he picked up Buddhist teachings, was not born in bethelhem (?spelling) and was not raised from the dead. Asides from that, a stand up guy.

He rejected/replaced Judaism ... and there was no such thing as Islam during his lifetime.

There is also no record of him ever having a romantic or sexual interest in anyone .... Female or Male.

Sounds asexual to me.

He did not reject or replace Judaism, he was Jewish. Islam recognises him as a prophet. In the absence of anyone witnessing him having sex, the likely probability is that he was straight.

Christ, and Christianity is definitely a rejection and replacement to Judaism (for those that follow the teachings of Christ)

The new testament superseded the old, not replaced, it was an update. But christ didn't write it. Jesus didn't preach Christianity, he preached the Jewish doctrines he agreed with and and argued against the doctrine he didn't agree with, just like the rest of the Jewish sects that didn't agree with each other. It was Paul who started the Christianity ball rolling and there's a good case to be made that this new religion should have been called Paul-ianity.

History often gets re-arranged in the so-called name of 'art'. Look at such appalling films like Braveheart and The Favourite, or TV programmes like the Tudors or more recently about the Norman Conquest [forget its actual title] or that quite ridiculous slapstick nonsense called The Great.

A lot of things we seem to accept about The Bible are not even there. The Nativity story has long been blown out of all proportion as it only gets a brief mention in one Gospel.

I did a degree in theology but a long time ago. Still find it interesting. Although not mentioned there is a strong body of opinion that Jesus was married. Marriage--and often arranged marriage--was compulsory in the middle-east in those days. Still is in some societies. A rabbi would definitely be married. The only group of religious men who where not were the Essenes and they were virtually a monastic sect.

Not at baby age. Perhaps when they are of school age if they show effeminate traits but not all gays are effeminate. Some of us are far from it and still did all the boyish things

It just seems to be the nonsensical, flippant product of fertile and creative young minds, yet to reach full maturity and not intended to be taken seriously, such is the nature of creative freedom of expression.

At the time of Christ, the concept of homosexuality would probably have been seen from a different perspective to that of today's modern society.

In more ancient societies, it was widely accepted for older men to have sex with younger men, often as a social status symbol, particularly for rich and powerful men.

In Jewish society, Biblical rules were seen as being against same-sex relationships, although, because of the nature of the topic itself, very little is specifically recorded in history. The general consensus of those who have studied the biblical era is that there is certainly evidence of same-sex relationships, but it was seen in a different way than we do today.
