    BNP is inherently wrong in a modern pluralistic society and to most educated people as, at it's simplest level, it passes judgement on people based on race. However, and this is where the greyness comes in, if you believe in free speech then everyone, no matter how vile their message, has a right to be heard. It's just unfortunate at the moment, that due to the scrabbling for the middle ground by the major parties, some people are actually listening to them.

    What is important to remember though, and this is the trouble I have with WP's post, is that the BNP is a choice, homosexuality is not.

    In my book homosexuality is neither good nor evil but part of the incredibly diverse and wonderful human condition and therefore obviously something to be accepted. What possible reasons, except outdated and ridiculous literal scriptural interpretations, could there be for "discomfort" with it? It's part of our make-up as a species (and we're not the only ones) and as a society.

    Sexuality is a prime example of a continuum trait with heterosexual and homosexual at either end and people falling at some point along the line ("greyness").
    Yes tut,tut,tut only the uneducated would fail to agree with me!

    The educated people that you talk about are nothing but whimp conformists, who've remembered everything and learnt nothing. They are incapable of taking an idea to it's roots, and deciding whether something is good or evil.

    Science has many of such adherents. People who'll fix the data for a bit of extra government cash, whilst propagandising certain notions like global warming.(I've noticed they've been a bit quiet recently, what with all the snow).

    Yes it is the so called educated people who have brought this country to its knees, and left the innocent at their mercy.
