Official Google Blog: Celebrating Gay Pride 2009

All around Google, we're proud of our work, our culture and, most importantly, our people. In the spirit of celebration, this spring and summer Googlers have participated in Pride celebrations in Tel Aviv, New York, Zürich, San Francisco and many other cities around the world. Pride is a time for the LGBT* community along with families, friends and supporters to stand up for equality, and to honor those who paved the way for us to express sexual orientation and gender identity openly. *LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered people and is also intended to include people who identify as queer, asexual or intersexed, amongst others.

The number of Christians is far greater than the number of LGBT people (that makes me chuckle whenever I see that now). Christians are truly being persecuted (that is murdered) around the world and especially in places like Africa. I wonder when Google will start marching for Christians? The truth is, I would be insulted if they took up a cause for Christians. Everyone knows it would be phony.
