Mormon Investment in Animal Agony, Global Heating, Disease

Intrinsic cruelty in cattle concentration camps It is ironic that Mormons are encouraged to store food,
since the cattle concentration camps of the LDS
and other animal flesh investments of the Church are a cause of famine, drought and world hunger.

The Inuit have the shortest life expectancy in the world (discounting
famine, war, infant mortality and childhood diseases) because
of animal fat, heavy metal poisoning, amyloid plaque, intestinal
cancer, etc.

Birmingham Pride

Birmingham Pride I've just come across the following piece on the BBC site. A slightly different take on the usual reporting of a dragged up Pride. An interesting read, I agree Pride is becoming too commercial and a calendar date like music festivals, there isn't much left about lgbt struggles. This idea that we should brush the political element of Pride aside because 'times have changed' is absurd. We still have battles to fight all over the world. Gay marriage in America, persecution in Iran and Zimbabwe. Pride needs to be reclaimed or an alternative created but would the 'gay clubbing' generation of today even attend such an event?
