The Anglican church has said that they will stop opposing
marriage equality in the House of Lords.
And people have celebrated and even praised them for it
and seen it even as a sign of softening on homophobia.
Hah! All this means is the rat has left the sinking ship.
See, The Anglican church is, in many ways, far more sensible
than the Catholic Church. The Catholic church will cling to their vocal, open
hatred to the very end. The weasels in the Anglican church know how to twist.
They’ve always been much bigger fans of making pretty speeches of how nice and
friendly they are really – while their attack dogs spew hate speech and they
put their power, influence and resources into fight every attempt we have ever
made to be part of society.
They try to sound nice about it, they try to gild their
hatred, try to polish their turds. They’re apologetic bigots – but they’re
still bigot.
And having fought viciously against us for the duration of this push for equality, they've finally read the writing on the wall and are jumping ship and trying to clean themselves up again
This is also not a church that has ever stood by anything
resembling principles. Welby and his rats said they were going to abstain for
the vote – but he and his ilk all voted for Lord Dear’s wrecking amendment. So
don’t expect this pretty speech to mean anything – Welby and the Anglican rats
do not feel truth is something that matters or ever has. This should come as no
surprise, in the run up to the marriage equality battle, lying Anglicans were
claiming that the church wasn’t bigots because they supported civil
partnerships! Of course that is a ridiculous claim because supporting a half
measure doesn’t make you one bit less bigoted; but that’s moot. Because it wasn’t
true – it was a complete lie and the Anglicans ferociously fought against civil
partnerships as well.
What, you expect honesty from these people? Truth?
Morals? Ethics? They’re the Anglican church, the rats don’t have principles,
they only pretend to.
Of course the “not opposing” the law means they’re now
concerned with… exemptions for bigots. Not bigoted churches – but personal
bigots. So that means more attempts to enshrine homophobia in the law and give
homophobia a pass in our schools, businesses and public life. So the campaign
of hate goes on.
The cruel bigotry of the Anglicans has not gone away, nor
has it changed. Justin Welby and his rats and followers remain our dedicated enemies,
implacably fighting whenever they can against us – they’re just better at
choosing their battles. But now’s the time to watch them – because they’re
shifting their PR and ready to re-write history
