Happy What?????

Pride.

Definition: the quality or state of being proud; identified in the Judeo-Christian scriptures as sin; also a month-long celebration, during the month of June, of homosexual identity, lifestyle, behavior, and the demand for acceptance and rights based on homosexual identity; the highlight of the celebration often being a parade in which homosexuals often dress indecently, engage in simulated sex acts, and otherwise try to promote sexual freedom.

Happy Pride.

Definition: a greeting or felicitous phrase, used in the place of "hello" and "goodbye" during Gay Pride Month.

Hearing people put those two words (happy and pride) together like that makes me cringe!

Thumbs down

Word usage abuse rages on....

I appreciate your vigilance in directing our attention to these strategic efforts to redefine word usage.

"Pride" can join the ranks of


pitiful


terrible






and











awful.


Maybe in some strange way, people are perishing for lack of a dictionary.

Brother LL Stevens once preached on "Good pride"

His conclusion.... There is none.
