Pride in BERGEN : Proud HISTORY

Here is the pride in Bergen and the History of Michael from New York!
50 years ago, in Michael's hometown New York, an uprising by members of the gay community inspired the creation of the global LGBTQ movement. To mark this anniversary, we invited Michael to Bergen for a colourful celebration with Norwegian activist legend Kim Friele and other local "Stonewall rebellions". Enjoy this video!

What a wonderful video! My husband and I are a Gay American couple who want to retire to a European country that offers Universal Healthcare and respects the LGBT+ community..so this video is really encouraging us to look into Norway as a possible place to live. If anyone has advice on where to live in Norway where we can enjoy the peaceful countryside yet travel to a city for dining and entertainment that is no more than 30 minutes away please let us know!

Love knows no gender. :-)

[@loveandfaithfulness4479]

Satan, also called the adversary or the devil, is the enemy of all righteousness and of those who seek to follow God. he and his followers try to lead us away from righteousness. he has many schemes to mislead and turn man from God. satan attempts to undermine us by confusing gender, promoting sexual relations outside of marriage, ridiculing marriage, and discouraging childbearing by married adults who would otherwise raise children in righteousness. The Bible condemns any form of sexual act that is considered “worthless” in God's Eyes. homosexuality, beastiality, fornication, and adultery. They say it’s all love and everything, but really there is no true love, they are just looking for lust. God made man & woman as a perfect couple to be fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth. This was given by God not freely chosen. Going against His image & His design is going against Him. We aren't here to change the word of God the word of God is here to change us, What are the actual "fruits"-the results-of the homosexual lifestyle? Can't naturally have biological kids, Diseases, Suffering, Unfulfillment, Nothingness! homosexual activity leads to a host of serious transmitted diseases (STDs) HIV, fatal transmitted Infections, and physical health problems, mental health problems, major depression, anxiety, substance abuse and greater risk of suicidal and a greatly shortened lifespan and the suffering list goes on. Why are there so many diseases? Why such young deaths? It has to do with the sexual practices. It goes against how God created bodies to work. And when you violate God’s design, there are always consequences. Same-sex attraction is always an expression of the fallen nature. But if you repent now, God forgiveness starts the process and His power continues to work in us, when we say yes to Him. But when we fail to listen to God, then problems, affliction and suffering will be the consequence of disobedience. I say this lovingly and to say truth in love is to love one another. Do not value your homosexuality Sin more than you value God. The only hope for the homosexual and all people who break God's laws is to turn to Christ. If we want to walk with Christ we must repent and reject our fleshly desires and deny ourselves. God can save you from that horrible life and community. God promises the strength for victory over sin, including homosexuality, to all those who will Believe in Jesus Christ for their Salvation.

Ik what country I'm gonna move to

[@OscarANM]

It’s cool he is finding himself and all, but I found this a little misleading and a little bit condescending “here is my friend from Mexico, poor guy he can’t be gay in his country so he had to come to Europe”... I am gay, I am from Mexico, and there is no problem being gay here, not in my city... I bet bullying and homophobia still exist in Norway as in all places. Stop acting like European countries are the answer to everything, they are not!!

[@VisitNorway]

dear Oscar! thank you for your comment! it was never our intention to look down at anyone (or be the answer as you write). Our intention was to show Bergen Pride through the eyes of a visitor from New York and to tell the story of one of the first LGBTQ activists in Norway. We never "put words in our character's mouth" and we choose characters because they are authentic and can help us to tell different stories from and about Norway. The person whom we invited to take part in this film moved from Mexico to New York because he felt it will be safer there and we respect his decision. with Love, Team Visit Norway.

[@Jess-TheMess]

Lmao you're reading way too much into it They're showing Pride and celebrating their City! It doesn't mean you have to move it should move. Just because you don't have problems where you are doesn't mean someone else shouldn't think of Norway as a great example.

[@polskudeutschnederlandsfra3915]

I like how it is edited, sadly i stopped with yt and deleted my 1st and 2nd channel... but alright, also, does anyone know how to ask someone in your class if they are gay and you like them? Because i like someone in my class but yeah... i don't trust anyone with my secrets... maybe i should give up or something maybe i shouldn't but ok...

[@VisitNorway]

thank you! we hope you will find the answer to your question. and we hope you will find love.
