Not to mention the rainbow symbolizes G-D's promise to Noah (Gen9 12-13) I thought LGBT-ers took PRIDE in their talents and creativity. Strange how they would take someone else's idea and exploit it as their own.

WLOX -
Nearly 40 years after he created the multi-color symbol of the LGBT movement, Gilbert Baker died Friday at the age of 65.
Details about his death are unknown at this time, but friends say Baker died in his sleep.
News of the man known as the father of the rainbow flag spread on social media.
My dearest friend in the world is gone. Gilbert Baker gave the world the Rainbow Flag; he gave me forty years of love and friendship. pic.twitter.com/titd3XZ0zD — Cleve Jones (@CleveJones1) March 31, 2017
According to his website, the first flag - which was inspired by Baker's friend Harvey Milk - debuted on June 25, 1978 during the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day Parade.
He broke world records, first in 1994 for creating a mile-long rainbow flag for the 25th anniversary of the Stonewall Riot, and again in 2003 for creating a flag that stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean in Key West for the 25th anniversary of the flag.
The vexillographer is quoted as once saying "Flags are torn from the soul of the people
TAKE BACK THE RAINBOW
Don’t the fag flag’s colors denotes different types of sexual preferences?
sarc/
Just..Darn!
AIDS?
You beat me!
PACE (pronounced pahh-cheh)
Yes, I used to love the rainbow colors until it got hijacked.
Why you are referring this to father, it could be mother or gender less !!!
With the acronym ever growing (LGBTQ...) if there were a stripe for every one it would soon make for a very vexed vexillographer. Roy G. Biv you are just too boring!
Wasn’t this borrowed from the Rainbow Coalition (maybe after it borrowed from that Italian flag)?
I really never actually grasped what rainbows had to do with buggery or related things.
Probably AIDS.
“Come on, everybody we’ve got quilting to do.”
The Christian approach shouldn’t be to shy away. It should be to use rainbows everywhere possible for unequivocally Christian purposes. It makes more sense in that context anyhow. Every kindred, every tribe....
Red: Blood
Brown: Poop
White: Semen
That would make sense for the colors of a homosexual flag.
And the funny thing is that not all of them even want the effeminate imagery. Some of them go in for hyper-macho. They must feel humiliated by that flag, and would probably prefer one that is black and metallic silver, or something like that.
I put that flag on the same par as My Pretty Pony or any other nonsense flag.
Excuse me, but “Father” ? Isn’t something wrong here? Is there such a thing as a father these days?
It's OURS again, now.
I thought that was it too...
Meanwhile I wish someone would produce those rainbow fag flags in smaller sizes - suitable for burning. Make a firestarter version, a larger one for bonfires, etc.
It always has been, regardless of what these Sodomites think.
