This quote has everything to do with Bali, so I really don't know what people are complaining about. The poster isn't on magic mushrooms, she is just quoting an interesting passage about Balinese religion and culture in an attempt to inspire some discussion.
It is a shame that all she got told was go 'get back to talking about Bali'. Do we mean how good the VIP VOA is, which room to book in the Padma and where to get the cheapest Louis Vuitton handbag? This post was a great deal more interesting than the majority of posts on the forum. I doubt very much that the poster intended to be offensive to homosexuals or anyone else; these aren't her views, but are quoted out of a book about Bali. The words refer to traditional Balinese Hindu belief and if that isn't about Bali, then I don't know what is. It's a shame people can't seen that.
I won't be suprised if she doesn't post again.
