I'm back to continue my interupted (By other stuff) thoughts.
Please people, do not call all of us christians homophobic fascists. Basically, this is nothing more than a mis-comunication. These people saw something the creator had not intended. As such, this was all just a misunderstanding, and should be dropped.
It's like Sam and Frodo. As an certain quote goes,
"Before, we were soliders...but eight days in Hell made us brothers," or something like that. Thats basically what was going on in the movie. But in todays society, all someone needs to see is two guys holding hands and what's the first thing that jumps into their head? You guessed it. Peter Jackson denied it, and Tolkien who wrote it was a Christian (So you can guess his standpoint). Thus, those who said, "Frodo and Sam are gay," had got it wrong. End of story.
Same thing here with SpongeBob. These people have said something, and the creator of the cartoon denies it. As it is his creation, and every episode probably has to be approved by him, I think we can trust him. This is all a misunderstanding. That should be the end of the story.
I think this whole thing has just sprouted from the fact that gay men in America hold SpongeBob up as a sort of icon or whatnot (
