On the Internet

Nothing comes up when I google Trojan Horse Generic2.JGX or Trojan Horse BackDoor.Generic3.WCY and I kind of need to know what they are because I had them. :| Would anyone know where I can look? :\

On Civil Rights Issues

In the meantime, here's an interesting topic of discussion. In a nutshell, it's this: Britain's implementing anti-gay discrimination laws, but is considering allowing Catholics to opt out of it because it would be against their beliefs in marriage and family if they were to let gay couples adopt children from their adoption agencies. (And if Britain says they have to follow the laws anyway, the agencies are more likely to shut down because, a cardinal says, they might lose funding.)

Does the religion retain their right to their beliefs if the state has said otherwise? And why? (Consider religious freedom vis a vis civil liberties gay rights. After all, isn't religious freedom in itself a civil liberty?)

On Musicals

  • [livejournal.com profile] miss_charmed gave me a copy of the Wicked stage production with Idina Menzel, Kristen Chenoweth, and Randy Harrison as Boq. :P

  • Avenue Q is going to be staged here. :D Auditions are going to be on Feb 20 and, due to my prodding, a friend from high school is going to try out for Gary Coleman. (I swear she's perfect for the role.)

  • They are also adapting High School Musical to the stage. :| And I know someone who's in the cast ensemble. It's on February 23-25 and I've already made plans to watch it with friends. The HSM craze is still somewhat strong, it appears. :|

Um, that stories not quite right, m'dear. (And they're not orphanages, just voluntary adoption agencies.) But yeah. Crazy.

story's, lol. And you'd probably know more about what's going on, so could you tell me what the real story is?

Rofl, I said something below, but only a brief run-through. To be fair, they've really just got to be seen as not dismissing the Catholics outright, but thinking through it, y'know? If it *does* affect policy all hell will break loose.

gotcha. :P That's an interesting point, because yeah, everything's done politically.

At least Britain has laws like that, lol, we don't even allow divorce in our country. :|

Catholics here are filthy hypocrites. But what's new?

Also, wtf? Tch, horny kings obviously had some use for us.

They rather are here as well, tbh.

And yeah, haha, we're one of only two countries in the world who still insist on the legalese of the sanctity of marriage. *eyeroll*

i have nothing of any value to add to this conversation, as i don't have a clue what either of you are on about (how do you know what's going on in england when i don't?), but...


Malta is nice. I enjoy Malta.

Also also, d'you want, I could send you a copy of the Wicked thing with Randy Harrison? Unless, and it's probably the case, you have it already. :|

Somone snuck a cam in a Broadwat staging of Wicked, so, basically, much of the play. :|

Ahh, gotcha. I know that too well. :\

S'kay. It's confusing really. Basically Ruth Kelly is messing things up, but really it's going to go through. They tried to stop this a couple weeks ago by saying that Christians should have the right to turn gay people/couples away from their hotels and B&Bs. It's utterly ridiculous all round, and totally unChristian. Ugh.

Ahh, well that's good, and I should hope eventually they do say they're pushing through with this finally, as I'm more for gays than the Catholics. :|
