<Anti-gay religious group targets Shrek 2

Canadian Press

TORONTO — Uh oh! That other jolly green giant could be in trouble. Shrek 2 is the latest animated film title to be "outed'' by Christian fundamentalists in the U.S.

On its website the Traditional Values Coalition is warning parents about the cross-dressing and transgender themes contained in the hit DreamWorks feature, now on DVD.

"Shrek 2 is billed as harmless entertainment but contains subtle sexual messages,'' says the coalition, which describes itself as a grassroots inter-denominational lobby with more than 43,000 member churches.

"Parents who are thinking about taking their children to see Shrek 2 may wish to consider the following.''

The article then proceeds to describe one of the characters, an "evil'' bartender (voiced by Larry King) who is a male-to-female transgender in transition and who expresses a sexual desire for Prince Charming.>

1. Why are they watching TV? They should be reading the Bible!

God, I'm a Christian. No wonder I haven't attended Mass lately.

[Ediacara]

2. m2f transgender?

I just thought she was meant to be an ugly woman.... These stupid religious nuts have sex on the brain nonstop!

5. I agree

It's all they talk about! What about education? Health care? Poverty? Enviornment? :shrug: It's all about war and sex!!!

3. Took my kids to that, and they loved it.

We live in San Francisco, and I've never felt the need to explain the men holding hands on the sidewalk in the Castro. It's so not a big deal to me.

It's great living here. My fundie biological mom never visits!

4. The American Taliban...

These people really need to get a life, turn off the TeeVee, find a hobby, and mind their own fucking beeswax.

[Jack Rabbit]

6. Are these guys for real?

I mean: Are they really a right wing Christian fundie group or are they a left wing guerrilla theatre troupe sending up Christian fundies?

If they're the former, they're really annoying and silly; if they're the latter, they're doing a right good job of being entertaining.

7. I'm surprised these guys haven't done a retrobash on Bugs Bunny yet.

What a tart SHE was, always queening around in drag...

[FreedomAngel82]

10. I'm surprised too

:shrug: I don't get why they don't go after Bugs. For the children after all...

[Toucano]

8. They're having a bit of a delayed reaction aren't they?

Or did they all wait until it came on HBO?

[Career Prole]

9. I'd be more concerned it'd make my child want to be

an animated ogre when she grew up.
Them's some twisted, hating people there...

[EC]

11. Let them keep going, pretty soon, even their followers are

going to see how idiotic and crazy they are....
