.... My Muslim Cousins......................................WTF????? ............

.

Amateur club Creteil Bebel has been excluded from the French amateur league after refusing to play a football match against a gay team.

Last week, Paris Foot Gay said its members were victims of homophobia when Creteil, a team of Muslim players, refused to play them earlier this month.

The French amateur league said it excluded Creteil for "refusing the match on discriminatory grounds."


Just when you think we have taken 2 steps forward.................. we take three steps back :(

WTF.....religion can be a biatch! Or maybe it's just the human weakness.

Oh the wonders of religious fundamentalism and superstition. It runs ramped here in the US too.

What annoys me most of all is that here, particularly, in the US, Muslim loathing seems to be quite rampant, and we gays seem to be (at least a fair number of us)opposed to this hate, and are quite supportive of them. And for them to turn around and slap us in the face like that is a tad disquieting. Still, I will stick to my liberal principles and be disppointed in them but I won't hate them for it.

Well, except it is more like but then another 1.5 step forward because the league excluded the discriminatory team.

So that's good.

Plus, I wouldn't want to play a gay rugby team either. They fight dirty!
