I was just pointing out the narrow point of vision for you to state that they accomplished "nothing", when you live on the other side of the world, and probably know little or nothing of what is going on in the Bahamas, or what may happen because of some people protesting a cruise ship dedicated to promoting sexual perversity.

And, with all due respect, I was pointing out that such demonstrations accomplish nothing. I have no respect for Rosie O'Donnell or her cohorts, but protestations typically have ZERO effect on anyone but those who are doing the protesting.

"...the passengers -- 1,150 adults and 450 children -- had come to have fun"

Disgusting enough for you?

That's a pretty amazing statement - it's like saying you can see the interior of everyone's heart and mind in the Bahamas, on the cruise line, and so on.

Plus you can see the future, too.

It seems the did accomplish one task.

These homocruises are based on the asumption that their dollars buy acceptance. It seems these lesbians now know their lifestyle is not accepted just because they bring dollars.

I would imagine such a cruise was advertised as the chance to pretend to be normal.

Did the protestors change minds. No.

Did they make a statement. Yes.

Besides, as a parent on an island, who wants a bunch people on a sex based vacation possibly wandering around children?
These people let it be known that the do not.

My son listens to Chrisian music, souther Gospel, Mark Lowry of the Gaitler Bros some praise and worship but then when summer comes he switches over to Pure Country. It is Rodeo time! Well when picking out his CD's one of the singers name was Uncle Cracker and I thought of you Old Cracker. Bet you we're around before he was. Have you ever heard of this country guy Uncle Cracker?

Some of us "Christians" are tired of the in our face angry homosexual political crap.

Good someone is standing up and saying it!

Rosie was sooooo nice untill she came out and now it is this angry, I am a victem, hateful bag of hot air!

Homosexuals have create their own psuedeo world of being hated.

Old folks are targets to bad guys but I don't see all off them getting vile with hatred against the world.

Why not just admit it that they are mentally ill. People may be more supportive of a disorder like other mental disorders and physical ones than hate spewing, selfish varments that rant about love. Sounds twisted just like the devil would have it.

Once a Priest told me and my son to pray for him, we met him at a camp for youth and he said "those that are very good souls are the most evil when they fall into sin." I will never forget his seriousness and the truth I have now seen over the years in his advice.

I agree. I read an article in which the Cruise Lines and CDC say they expect a certain amount of food illnessess and if it rises above that percetage, can't remember, they have to report it to CDC.

Now who wants to risk that. A womnan I knew since I eat at their family restraunt twice a week, home cooked food, died from eating at a Reno food buffet literally right next to me and my son when he was in ICU for bronchial spasms/resp. distress last December.

I have sense then become very close to the family and made new friends but the loss of their Grandma is sooo sad.

No worse than a lesbian couple who have a child against their church teaching and then go on trial so the one partner can stay on a the preacher.

Liars who want the world to except and change to meet their selfish needs.

Nothing wrong with Christians defending themselves and their families.

Sounds cool! I have never been able to stomach coffee but love the aroma just bought a gel candle that is coffee bean aroma. Yum.

Then I ordered from Pottery Barn today and the had a special going of 12 different coffee candles for a spec. price I am tempted to call back and reorder them.

Most lesbians are old and overweight, which is why they are very high risk for heart attacks. They also love having pet dogs, male pet dogs. Sounds like fun to you?

These demonstrators accomplished exactly nothing.

OK, fine, so you're a good Rotary-club Republican who puts great stock in "getting things done" -- like Bob Dole, who got his head handed to him in 1996.

Now, try again. Did their demonstrating annoy you? Did you want them to stay home and stop embarrassing you? Do you want them to go away so we can all concentrate on Things That Matter -- like next quarter's productivity numbers?

These small Caribbean islands are very protective of family values. They normally don't have MTV and they want their kids to grow up in a normal environment. Believe me, I have lived in the Caribbean and seeing a boat load of gays come to shore is NOT NORMAL! I believe these people have the right to say who they want in THEIR COUNTRY.

As a side note, homosexuality, is still a crime in the British Virgin Islands, so I hope a gay cruise doesn't try to invade their islands. They may find themselves spending a few nights in Her Majesty's Royal Prison.

The citizens of these Countries have their priorities in order. I am not a gay basher, but if you have never seen a boat load of homosexuals on "vacation", it is a hard thing to explain to kids, much less to witness yourself on the streets of the beautiful Caribbean.

Coffee Candles? Boy, that's a new one on me. Why don't you just brew some aromatic coffee for yourself?
