The church whose entire existence is owed to a serial wife-killing monarch throwing a tantrum over not being able to get a divorce wants you to know it cares about family values

Comment on Man Who Says He Vandalised Cape Town Rainbow Crossing Comes Forward by Patrick

If the City municipality does not act on this, there will be a massive loss of support for their governance. A prosecution on vandalism and hate speech is clear and Cape Town is staring it’s city management in the face waiting for then to step up.

Ct is sister city with Rio de Janiero, Miami, Malmo, Funchal, Cleveland, Antwerp and Aachen, none of which would allow such vandalism and hate to go unpunished.

The world is looking, Ct, act against abuse or lose face.

Dear Colleague,

Is there perhaps any chance that you might be able to help me find Barry’s timeless review of the song Travellin’ Thru by the late Ms. Dolly Parton?

I completely realise that this may be an impossible request, but hey, there is surely no harm in trying!

I would be enormously grateful for any assistance you might be able to offer.

Many thanks, and warm regards,

Kobus Maree

Comment on Cape Town’s Rainbow Crossing Vandalised – Twice! by Guido Habets

A real christian should respect all of “gods” creation. But these so called christians feel they have to correct their god because a guy in a church in a dress tells them to hate their fellow souls. And they think they know better than their god. One of many many different gods prayed to by many many different religions telling their followers, their god is the real one. When in fact the place of birth determines which god you pray too. Born in a Christian country you defend the Christian god, born in an Islamic country you defend Allah etc, etc. And they all think they are right , because somebody told them from birth. And their religious leader spread hate and division and their followers keep fighting their fellow humans

I have often wondered what became of “Jannie and Conrad” from the early 1970’s LGBT scene. Jannie was employed in one of Cyril’s shops (I believe it was “The Boyfriend” in downtown Jo’burg) and he was well-connected in the LBGT community, although perhaps not to the extent that Cyril was..

Comment on Cape Town Rainbow Crosswalk Vandalism Unleashes Flood of Anti-LGBTQ+ Hate by Shozi

Its highly concerning that the SO CALLED " CHRIST-LIKE " followers can act in such an UN-CHRIST-LIKE manner. This proves yet against that this outrage has nothing to do with being RELIGIOUS. Its a lack of self esteem in their own chosen identity . Im Trans , some people are Gay and You are heterosexual , how is My identity so any of Your business. RELIGIOUS HETEROSEXUALS really need to do a deeper dive . Once done deep diving KINDLY GET A LIFE .
