A JW who works where I work saw a New Age CD with an image of a rainbow on the cover, and immediately said "This is homosexual". Is this a widespread feeling among JW's, or fundamentalists in general?

A lot of gay pride stuff has rainbows on it. I don't know why, as long as I can remember. That and the pink triangle that they made gays wear in the concentration camps.

Okay, now this just makes me think of Lucky Charms cereal!
The rainbow for gay pride is all about accepting and being open to receiving ALL the colors of the rainbow (variety) in people and life. Edit: And ENJOYING the beauty that such colorful variety brings!!! -

You should tell them that they are spiritually weak, because their first thought should be of god's promise to not destroy the earth with a flood again when they see a rainbow. :p

Homo sexual is what a rainbow makes me think of. I live on a street with a bunch of lesbians and eveything is rainbow this rainbow that. Rainbow landscape and lawn care, Rainbow plumbing. Rainbow electric.
They are good neighbors. But they all look alike. I never can tell which one my next door neighbor is even though I have met her and talked with her. I just keep waving till one waves back and I take it thats her.

Although I'm completely cool with the gay community, and do nothing but love and support them...
Rainbows do make me think of gay people. I see it associated with the gay community so much, it just makes me think of gay people... which isn't a bad thing.
They're very nice people with AWESOME senses of humor who tip well. Who cares what they do at home?
