He needs to take a big dose of shut the [bleep] up' and hide out for a while. Its sad, CrossFits CEO Greg Glassman told BuzzFeed News.
A high-ranking CrossFit employee was fired after tweeting his support for a CrossFit gyms cancellation of a Pride event, citing his belief that celebrating LGBT pride is a sin.
Russell Berger was the mega-successful fitness companys chief knowledge officer, often de facto spokesperson, and a co-author of the Russells, a blog about scientific misconduct that he maintained with colleague Russell Greene.
"As someone who personally believes celebrating 'pride' is a sin, I'd like to personally encourage #CrossFitInfiltrate for standing by their convictions and refusing to host an @indypride workout, Berger wrote. The intolerance of the LGBTQ ideology toward any alternative views is mind-blowing.
At first, Berger was placed on an unpaid leave of absence. But later on Wednesday, CrossFit announced on Twitter that he had been fired.
Etc...
As I suspected, only fudgepackers do crossfit. Probably one of the dumbest fitness fag or fad whatever..
People who take pride in how they misuse their private parts and try to force others to celebrate it are mentally ill.
Crossfit has a CEO? Why does a fitness movement need a CEO or a spokesperson?
Lucifer got kick out of Heaven due to pride.
“Crossfit has a CEO? Why does a fitness movement need a CEO or a spokesperson?”
wiki: “It is practiced by members of over 13,000[6] affiliated gyms”
Pride, one of the seven deadly sins. Now you can get your head cut off for saying that.
Well...Jesus hated child molesters.
Time to avoid gyms that implement it and cancel some local government uses of it. It’s only a more heavily marketed, combined mess of previously existing exercises anyway, and it’s been killing a lot of people weren’t already extremely physically fit (injuries and rhabdomyolysis).
Well whaddya expect? In this day and age, saying LGBT pride should not be celebrated on alternate Thursdays would be enough to get a person fired.
I know MY gym owner, I just didn’t ever see it as something that needed to have a corporate structure. To me, Crossfit is like Karate or running or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. All of those have international governing bodies, sure, but AN ACTUAL CORPORATE STRUCTURE? Seems ridiculous. Especially for people like this who both own a gym and have another job, being a pastor in his case. I just like doing WoDs and working out with my friends. I don’t think any of it needs to have anything to do with the gay lifestyle or politics in general.
There are things you not allowed to have an opinion.
Now who is intolerant?
You can no longer have a traditional Christian point of view.
Its gonna offend someone.

It’s branded and sold to gyms and governments (police departments and the like). Here’s the business model.

It’s a franchise. I know someone who had one that got tired of paying the franchise fee every year and just branched out on his own.
“I know MY gym owner, I just didnt ever see it as something that needed to have a corporate structure.”
I doubt that your gym owner racks in four billion smackers a year ...
OTOH, my BIL is CEO of his two person company.
Does the CEO have a sex dungeon?
A gay Microsoft VP once boasted of one since he had no kids to use the additional rooms in his house.
21st Century Nazis wear pink.
Envy is also a sin but apparently socialists celebrate it.
Somehow, somewhere along the line, our “one nation under God, indivisible” became “TWO nations, one under God, and the other under Satan”.
I can’t visualize uniting back together again as one nation. Why would Good even want to merge with Evil.
