    Gay Purge

    I don't know where you could find any more "deeply rooted homosexual tendencies" than within the power hierarchy of the catholic church. These men who forego intimate contact with women, live in groups of males and worship a phallus figure they call father sound pretty damn homosexual to me.
    Me thinks the "former" Nazi new Pope doth protest too much.



    an excerpt from the article

    Contrary to some media reports that focused on the Vatican's banning of "sexually active" gay men from the seminaries (anyone--straight or gay--who enters the seminary must be celibate) and stories that zeroed in on "transitory" gays (another way of speaking about basically straight men), the document has a far simpler and more wide-ranging goal: the banning of any man who understands himself as gay. The document explicitly bars those who have "deeply rooted homosexual tendencies."

    In contrast to the divorce craze sweeping straight celebrity couples, gay celebrity couples are going bonkers with marriage. First Elton John and Mr. John last week, now George Michael and Mr. Michael this week. Next up, unlikely lovebirds Richard Simmons and Pope Benedict XVI. [E! online, AP]
