[JoshTanney]

would it be a sin to go to a place called gaylord center in nashville

 

[shadow_fire]

My view: Nah in fact I can’t wait to hit some gay bars when I’m older
Catholic view: What is the center for? if its just named after a guy and the center has nothing to do with homosexuality then it isn’t sinful.

 

[JoshTanney]

not sure what its named after

 

[RachelB]

Gaylord is someone’s last name.

It would not be a sin to go there, unless you’re going there to do something sinful

I don’t think it is anything to worry about. It is a last name and I think that it was named after a prominent person.

Here is a link to the center

There is also a city in Michigan named Gaylord. Cardinal Szoka used to be the bishop of the Diocese of Gaylord until he was transfered to Detroit

Why would it be a sin? Does this place host immoral events or support immoral organizations?

Only if you don’t like the band or the sports’ event. Then, it would be a sin to waste your money on a bad time.

This used to be the Nashville Arena.

Okay, now I’m even more confused by the original question. Why would it be a sin?

Look at the first three letters of the name. I know Gaylord is an actual surname, but some people only see those first three letters and think of something else

Oy vey. Are we that corrupted as a society? Wait, don’t answer that.

Gaylord… Happy lord?

We used to go camping up there all the time. And it never, ever failed to cause snickering from my brother and I in the backseat. Of course, we were 13 and 11 then, so it made more sense than an adult fretting over the name…

Did you ever see “Meet the Parents”? Ben Stiller’s character’s parents had named him “Gaylord” (but he went by “Greg” b/c the former is an embarrassing name). It’s definitely just a name, dude.

That would be E. K. Gaylord, the Oklahoma Publishing Co., publishing The Daily Oklahoman. The Gaylord family has really branched out over the years.

Then the problem lies with the person doing the thinking. Good grief, the word gay also means happy

Gaylord is also a type of packaging used in manufacturing

I’ve been there quite often - it’s very nice. I work with a woman whose first name is Gay. There’s a journalist (man) named Gay Talese. There’s nothing at all wrong with the word gay.

Please tell me this question is a joke.

Short for “Gaetano”.
