There is a common saying in Germany: "Bavaria is no longer Germany and not yet Austria". Many things are different in Bavaria. It is for example the only one of the 16 federal states of Germany in which there is no Christian Democratic Union (one of the major political parties in Germany) but where you have the Christian Social Union instead. The CSU is a sister party of the CDU, but there are often tensions between them. These tensions have a big impact on the political life in Germany. In the days of Franz Josef Strauss the CSU got around 70% of the votes in Bavaria, a lot more than any other party in any other federal state. They still get by far the most votes in Bavaria. And the CSU is the most conservative of all democratic parties in Germany; it borders on right-wing extremism at times. Edited by BaldFriede - November 05 2015 at 14:05 |

I never said it's a bad thing. Just that Bavaria doesn't tend to have a lot of immigrants from Mexico. |

Please BaldFriede don't insult your own country by daring to compare Bavaria (or any place on Earth really) to Texas

This verges on ugly-- further, I'd think someone in Canada couldn't give a rat's ass what's happening in Texas. |

Thankfully the world have changed a bit the last 40 years or so. Back in the golden age of the 1970's, things were not as simple.

In their defense, the orthodox church has a clear position on homosexuality. Nobody is forcing you to agree with them, but their priests probably should actually follow their own religion

Bavaria is very nice, full of kindly people, and has less mexicans than Texas

I know what 'he' wrote, but I did not need to quote 'him' directly as that would only have provoked another of 'his' self-pitying protestations. 'He' listed three reasons, of which I picked two to comment upon as the third was superfluous; 'he' did not list one reason that had three conditions that had to be true for 'him' to support LBGT demands... Then, perhaps you should actually read read what I wrote and not what you think I said. ![]() Edited by Dean - November 05 2015 at 08:09 |

Yes it is a serious matter, these are basic human rights, equal rights for all, it's so frustrating and incomprehensible the injustice done to particular social groups. People should stop imposing onto others their beliefs and instead mind their own business, we know this. What I said earlier was not meant in an insensitive way, quite the contrary. I don't want anyone to end up feeling alienated or others uncomfortable, made to feel like they need to walk on eggshells around here, thus our gender identity should not matter here. Sexual orientation, on-the-other-hand now that's an interesting topic to me
