That wasn't the video linked.

Yes.  So what?  People can wear what they want, dress as they like, 
within the standards considered acceptable to the people around in the 
context in question.  His clothes are entirely respectable - merely a 
little unusual.

And if Rick thinks that is "drag" - well, I think he should probably get 
out a bit more.  Perhaps he should go and see a real drag show, or maybe 
even /talk/ with some people who don't share his bigotry and fanaticism. 
  Perhaps he would learn that they are normal, friendly people just like 
most others.

If you believe that a god created people as either male or female, 
falling in strict categories for biology, appearance, sexuality, 
behaviour - you have your eyes closed to reality.  And if you believe 
that a god is ordering you to hate and mistreat people who don't match 
your blinkered black-or-white viewpoint, you have misunderstood the 
message from that god.

(If you want to believe in a god that created the wide variety of people 
we see around us, and that we should be as good people as we can towards 
them all, then that's great.)
