Metiria Turei doesn`t like Christians who don`t agree with her
Yesterday:
Accusing Christians who support the CUB of homophobia and delusion
"All this talk about upholding the sanctity of marriage is just a PC way of masking rampant homophobia," said Ms Turei, the Greens' Associate Spokesperson on Justice.
"Ordinary New Zealanders live in a wide range of personal circumstances, so fundamentalists clearly do not speak for anyone other than their own deluded constituency.
"The really sad aspect of the attacks against this Bill is that they give religion a bad name. Compassionate Christians and other believers do not deserve to be tarred with the brush of bigotry," said Ms Turei.
Today: Having a dig at UFNZ.
12. METIRIA TUREI (Green) to the Associate Minister of Justice: Does the Government have any plans to amend the Human Rights Act 1993 to allow political parties to discriminate on the basis of religious belief or sexual orientation; if not, why not?
Hon MARGARET WILSON (Associate Minister of Justice): No, there has been no call to date to amend the legislation in this respect.
Metiria Turei: Is the Minister aware of the situation of Dipra Ray, who was reportedly discriminated against in the selection of a youth MP, on the grounds that he was Hindu and not Christian, by a member of the United Future Party; and what is her view of such discrimination?
Mr SPEAKER: In so far as it relates to the Minister’s portfolio, she may answer.
Hon MARGARET WILSON: Yes, I am aware of the article. Any further action to be taken would be up to the person concerned through the Human Rights Commission.
and in this speech From Turei comes this quote:
"A challenge for us Greens is to become bridge-builders."
hahahahaha Oh yeah? Should have added, " except with Christians who don’t agree with me"
