In response to "i fail to see how that idear can be negative at all -- nm" by Danedukenuuk

I didn't say it was negative. But he offers absolutely nothing as evidence supporting his claim.

For someone to claim that he doesn't enjoy fame but then to go on to use that fame to further his personal agenda and to make statements that are clearly meant to generate attention (thus furthering his fame) -- to me this is hypocritical.

Here's the full quote. I don't think he's doing it to get attention, he is talking about his own personal interpretation of Jesus' life - Roger More Feb 19, 10:37 15
- Oh of course he was doing it for attention. And his own personal interpretation of Jesus being gay is based on....? -- nm - Stephen Feb 19, 10:53 14
  - And the interpretation of Jesus being blond and blue-eyes is based on...? - Roger More Feb 19, 11:02 2
    - I can understand feeling a connection, but that connection is there without Elton feeling the need for Jesus to be gay too. -- nm - Stephen Feb 19, 11:05 1
      - It's what makes sense to him. We don't really know if Jesus was gay, or straight, or asexual, or human, or divine, or whatever -- nm - Roger More Feb 19, 11:10
  - his own personal experiences, I would imagine. - znufrii Feb 19, 11:02 5
    - Wait, you mean Jesus was really an Irish/Scottish/German who served in the military? - Stephen Feb 19, 11:07 3
      - if that's how you need to define him in order for him to have the most relevance to your spiritual life, why not? - znufrii Feb 19, 11:10 2
        
        No, but neither am I going to be the one to tell Jesus what he has to be in order to be relevant to me -- nm - Stephen Feb 19, 11:19
        
        more broadly, from a religious perspective, who he was as an individual is not as important as how he is understood to be. -- nm - znufrii Feb 19, 11:13

  - if he was straight, he would have turned the water into Bud Light. - TFox Feb 19, 10:57 1
    - I'd like to think that if he had decided to turn the water into anything other than wine it wouldn't have been one of the crappiest beers ever made. - Stephen Feb 19, 11:09
  - the 12 dudes who followed him around -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 10:54 2
    - That's such a lame "argument" ; ) - Stephen Feb 19, 11:01 1
      - they also washed his feet and talked about cocks "crowing" -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 11:03
