http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6850119/ talks about how certain Christian groups are worried that a cartoon character which is an asexual organism is promoting homosexuality to kids.

Anyone who could possibly think FAKE is a kid's show is obviously not to be listened to. Very Happy

Yes, since all of the little middle-school kids watch Gundam Wing, since it's on the same level of popularity in America with Spongebob.

notice the subtle sarcasm there. Gundam Wing isn't in the tape, so they're not going to care.

I think the better question is;
What will the Christian Right do if they see Evangelion, or FAKE, or some anime offending the Christian right, and will I have a camera to catch their faces?[/spoiler]

Why the hell would "Gundam Wing" and "Card Capture Sakura" be involved in this? They haven't been on the air for several years now!

"Issued a gay alert warning"... that is hilarious. It's like, the amber alert system! Or the national security level has been upgraded to orange! No, it's a gay alert warning. Pull over anyone with limp wrists hanging out their car windows. I really love that wording.

It sounds like something a 7 year old would have at a elementary school. Then again, a majority of these groups have the group mentality of elementary school students, so it just makes it funnier.

Fundamentalists Rolling Eyes . They're just mad cause they can be homosexual in their religion.......they are just going to keep targeting somthing soon it might be anime, but thats not going to stop it. Is spongeBob over?

Also in brittain some preist tried to get a book burnning of Harry Potter books because they are the influence of the devil. Did the books stoped being published. Only ignorant, bestile, fools, try to stop somthing based on their own prejudices.

You obviously don't understand the subtle humour of the thing don't you? Don't worry, being simple can have it's benefits, as you're probably well aware of.

PS Despite what you may think, that doesn't nessecerally mean you are right, and in this paticular case, you are incorrect. The thread is off-topic, as the current campaign is not opposed to Japanese animated programming and shows no sign of being so any time soon. Even if they do, there's no way to prove that they are now, so for the time being it is off-topic.

There's got to always be SOMEONE, hey?
