Powerful, beautiful, sad

Matthew Brown is a guy who makes beautiful movies. I came across his work through the Scenicboys whom he is good friends with and goes on camping trips with. He’s made this very powerful movie using footage that he’s taken on trips with Garet and Dusty and their other Scenicboy friends, combining it with audio from bigoted supposed Christians in the U.S. It makes for quite a sobering movie with the audio being I presume intentionally quite at odds with the luscious imagery of these very healthy, happy, loving gay men enjoying life.

    Whew. That can be called ‘Beauty and The Beast!’ So much hate and ugliness in sound, with happiness and peace in sight. Painful to hear.
    Those disgusting breeders should all just ‘go’ to their imaginary super-being in the sky…now. They do not deserve to be on Our planet.

    Not to get all religious, but as a Christian, I am pained to hear the hatred and venom that these fundamentalists spew towards their fellow men and women. It certainly doesn’t follow Christ’s message of love and compassion that each one of us is supposed to show towards everyone else. Fortunately, the fundamentalists are losing their clout in the national debate over the topic of gay marriage and gay equality. Unfortunately, that means they’ll probably get way louder before they finally lose. But lose they will!

    Thanks for posting this Brenton. Matt is a amazing artist and I’m very happy that this video has gotten him some attention.

    David, thank you for pointing out that not all Christians are this hateful and close-minded. There are *true* Christians out there too.
