Bulgaria Most Homophobic Country In Europe?


Posted: December 21, 2007 - 5:00 pm ET

(Sophia) Results of a poll on discrimination in Bulgaria have sent up alarm signals within the European Union.

The survey found that 80 percent of of the population in the Balkan nation have negative attitudes toward gays and 53 percent have attitudes that are "extremely negative.

Only 17 percent said they would be able to carry on a conversation with someone who is gay.

The poll, by the Skala Agency, also found that almost half of those surveyed would not refuse to work with someone they believed to be gay

Nearly 70 percent said they would take their children out of school if they found one of the teachers was gay.

And half of those polled said they would disown a child who came out. The figure was higher if a child were transgendered

Why would I want to go there?,.. I'm not a former Communist, nor a former Muslim...

a quick look at the history of the country and you can see why the intolerant ideals comes out.... but to say it is because the country seems to be a Christian majority is false and ignores facts...



However, many people raised during the 45 years of communist rule are not religious, even though they may formally be members of the church.

Despite the dominant position of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church in Bulgarian cultural life, a number of Bulgarian citizens belong to other religious denominations, most notably Islam,

and rolling your eyes promotes discussion?

I felt as if your post was off-base in it's accusation so I responded with facts...

Your post implied that Christians are intolerant... I just showed that historically it is not true in your example....


Merry Christmas!
