@anonym4us13 I think that's a very devisive outlook. Flags represent a good face of the country or people they represent, they should not be viewed as something hostile, unless people are afraid of difference and open representation. You insinuate that gay people are not part of society, but that is what the spectrum of colours represent, that gay people can be found in any strata of society, in any country, nation, people, race or religion, and so it should be a unifying symbol and one of integration, not one of separation or discrimination. Surely that is an aspiration.
I live in a divided society where both British and Irish flags vie for predominance, but while one side refuses to accept the legitimacy of the other the flags only add to the tension & mistrust.
I don't think countries should necessarily not accept another nation's flag favourably, unless, as you suggest, they pose a serious threat. Rainbow flags aren't there to stamp out all others, but to form a bridge between many. Most that are offended take umbrage out of deep personal dislike.
That is prejudice, and you cannot blame the rainbow flag for that. If you want a totally white heterosexual community to identify with as your country you're gonna have to follow Hitler.
That kind of thinking only leads to alienation and hatred, and we should be beyond that.

@ColonelStraker Well, from what I understand the Bible says that "SIN is trangression of the Law" (of God), which I am guessing you are using for your measuring stick to size other people up and what you must be referring to in not compromising against it. So not to accept sin.
However, I see Christians breaking God's Law all the time, so how are they so different in their behaviour than the people you seem to be denouncing as sinners? Most of them refuse to obey God in remembering the Sabbath Day to keep it holy on the seventh day of the week, now called "Saturday" by most Christians in honour of the god Saturn, and a great many seem to ignore the warning by God in Leviticus 11: 7, 10-12 about the ABOMINATION (emphasized by God FOUR TIMES) of eating sewage-imbibing shellfish and scavenger animals, which even as a Hilton chef I was taught by my secular tutors that these were "HIGH RISK" foods to be cooked, prepared and stored with great care in order not to poison anyone, which differentiation even the Gentile Noah knew about when he obeyed God in boarding the unclean animals in TWOS upon the Ark, whilst boarding the clean animals in SEVEN PAIRS, or 14 animals, as they were needed for food. 🐷
You mention the lake of fire, which the book of revelation informs us is where ALL LIARS will end up, which must include all Christian parents, teachers and even church ministers who LIE to innocent children year in, year out, wilfully and unrepentedly about Santa Claus and his flying reindeer. 🎅 🦌🦌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You are certainly right about confusing love vs tolerance, so how long should we tolerate the sinful behaviour of these law-breaking Christian liars posing as representatives of the Messiah in the churches? It seems to have moved from a mindset of reject, then resist, then tolerate, then accept, and now embrace Sabbath-breaking, eating unclean animals and blatantly LYING!!!! 🤯
Thank you for reminding of the tidal wave of these mainstream values that have everlasting consequences, which I know you are fully aware of or you wouldn't preach so much about sin.
