Quote:And yet you'll believe the christians when they say otherwise? Are you sure you're one to be talking about biases, there?As I said, I looked for mainstream reports. I didn't go quoting a Christian site.
Quote:One wonders who was taking the video, speaking of biases.I guess you didn't watch it. It was a critic of the organization trying to get them to admit that Trinity Works was the organizer. Not sure why he thought that was important, as TW said to the press they were going to do it. So, a critic was there taking video, but didn't notice any traumatized victims.
Quote:Because FA has earned my trust, and has a history of unbiased reporting.From where I sit he has a history of biased reporting, and as noted, he takes a perfectly innocent picture and spins it negatively in this very article.
Quote:Before you bandy about accusations of bias, maybe you could actually look at the source you're accusing: when you have FA routinely posting retractions and corrections to stories about christianity that they've gotten wrong, and who posts a story like this just yesterday, it kind of deflates your theory that they're just on an outrage kick on behalf of the gay agenda.Or maybe you should find a mainstream source if you want credibility. There are plenty of liberal leaning mainstream news outlets that would love to expose this if it were accurate.
Quote:Uh huh, because everyone would be aware of that one report. I also note the large difference between "will be putting in an appearance at the event," and "will be deliberately wearing uniforms and handing out leaflets that look very similar to event officials." It's fairly clear why one would do that. Any normal group simply looking to work on the crowd would want to look distinct and memorable as their own group, and specifically wouldn't want to look like the organizers: an anti-gay group wouldn't want to appear connected to the event in any official sense...Here's another article a month previous about it. This wasn't hidden. And regarding the handouts, did you look at them? Yes, they were similar to official handouts in that they had words printed on paper.
... Unless they were attempting to slip in under people's guard to harangue them.
