Uganda to pass kill the gays bill

[tumbleweed41]

For the record, the Anglican Church of Uganda has welcomed many of the breakwaway Episcopalian congregations In America to their organization as those American Episcopalian congregations have left the American Diocese over the election of Gene Robinson, an openly gay non-celibate man, as Bishop of New Hampshire.
The Anglican Church of Uganda consecrated an American bishop from Virginia to oversee many of the American parishes which it supports.

...and?

That we can do nothing about it, the leader has the right to their opinion, so stop complaining. If their life is at stake, move. You're right, they shouldn't have to, but they do. Drop it.

Well, we have the right to the opinion his opinion sucks and it would be nice that a lightning struck him clear of the Earth.

A lot of them wont be able to move.

No, I won't. Some of us actually care about innocent people being murdered or thrown in jail. If that upsets you so much, perhaps you should leave the thread.

Why should we do nothing? While a full military invasion would be over-doing it, the international community should indeed be able to pressure leaders who do stupid things.

It's funny because you're all depressed about this event, by understanding there's nothing to do about it makes you no longer depressed.

It also makes you a liar

 

[Wirey]

So we can assume that you advocate the murder of innocent people merely due to their sexual orientation? Don't you worry what this reveals about your character and integrity?

Actually, helplessness generally exacerbates depression. Good thing we're not actually helpless, isn't it?

Personally, I don't think there's anything funny about persecuting minorities.

Denial, anger, negotiation , depression and acceptance.

While depression can follow acceptance, the deepest understanding that you trully cannot do ANYTHING the quicker you are getting out of it.

I don't see how the five stages of grief relate to my point that we're not actually helpless here.

It doesn´t. It responds to the fact that it makes us come closer to acceptance and why it "exacerbates" depression. So yes, we move to depression but then we can move to acceptance.

I you have something helpful to do with your negotiation phase, by all means do!

The five stages of grief apply to inevitable, unchangeable circumstances like death. This is neither, so please don't support Sum telling me to "drop it."

Complaining? Who is complaining? I believe people are expressing their feelings on this issue, and also expressing their outrage.

No one is making you post in this thread.

I find your attitude to be quite defeatist which is understandable I guess in someone so young.

Maybe you need to re-evaluate your understanding of being depressed.

In depression you find that hopelessness is a common feeling/state of mind. For me personally, if something truly terrible happens and I can't do a damn thing about it I am likely to become depressed.

Not necessarily, because really what can we do other than complain? That's all I'm seeing is complaining.

Lol, thanks for that .

Complaining is better then apathy.

Where can you quote me on telling yo to drop it? o.o

The 5 stages don´t come into place with non inevitable stuff because evitable stuff tends to be dealt with in negotiation, or if you fail to avoid it then it will continue to depression and acceptance normally.

As I said, if you can do anything about it, by all means do!

What is it that you are able to do and are doing btw? (I am honestly asking)

I know I wont do anything about it. It angered me, but I gotta get over it, cause I won´t presicely make it my new lifegoal to change that. If 100 people made it their life goal to end that , they still got it very tough, but by all means! if they want to, then I wish they accomplish it!

So sure, make all the ruckus you want. I am serious. It´s part of accepting it. If you manage to change it before accepting it, then more power to you and gays in Uganda
