Comments by "Philip Rayment" (@PJRayment) on "‘Australians come in all shapes and sizes including drag queens’: Nicholas Reece" video.

  1. "I think most of us are pretty comfortable with a drag queen reading children's story..." NO! Absolutely definitely not.

  2.  @bobhawke7373  "Jesus has long hair and he's kinda wearing a dress dude" We have no photos nor contemporary images of Jesus. He is normally portrayed as being like males at the time would have appeared, i.e. in robes as males would have worn. So no, you're completely wrong.

  3.  @jamesmorrow1646  "No it isn’t, ..." Except that it is. It is teaching children things that undermine decency. It is teaching them immorality.

  4.  @HDR422  "kids do not have the hang ups of there parents." Those "hang ups" are there for good reason.

  5.  @louisejsb  "Why not Philip" Because it's teaching young minds things that are wrong.

  6.  @bobhawke7373  "Jesus is portrayed as the only white man in Arabia" Flatly false.

  7.  @bigcnmmerb0873  "Jesus wore what we refer to as a dress now days,..." False. He (presumably) wore what we refer to as robes. "...the Romans were gay..." A massive over-generalisation. "...stoning people on the streets was a norm, ..." I'm not suggesting that it didn't happen, but no, it was not the norm. "...dehuminzation of females was a thing,..." Women were generally considered inferior or lesser, but I think describing that as dehumanising is probably going too far. "you telling me that's nothing compared to dressing up?" I never made any such comparisons. So no.

  8.  @bigcnmmerb0873  "Jesus is portrayed as a white person in a brown skin community" False. He may be portrayed (rightly or wrongly) as a white person. The community may have been brown-skinned (although I'm not at all convinced). But he's not portrayed as being different to others in the community.

  9.  @bigcnmmerb0873  "so Jews were not dark skinned to match with the climate they were born in?" The shade of your skin is to do with genetics, not climate. Search for "What Controls Variation in Human Skin Color? PLOS" and look at the map of colour distribution around the world. You might be surprised. "Only reason why he's portrayed as white is because the British empire decided to make him British" No, the reason that he's often portrayed as white is because the artists were depicting him as being like the people they knew (who were 'white') and were not geneticists.

  10.  @lt4987  "yes us Christians agree with you " I would hope so! I'd question your Christianity if you didn't.
