Benedict XVI: making a list, checking it twice
Another year another message of queer-bashing hyperbole from the Pope. He doesn’t half pick his moments, this being the season of goodwill and all.
Pope Benedict XVI has said that saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.
Last year homosexuals were ‘an objective obstacle on the road to peace’. This year men and women being nice to each other in ways an octogenarian celibate neither understands or approves of is on a par with ecological disaster.
If a blogger starting spouting this hysterical guff they’d be laughed out of town. It’s the same addled mindset that compares New Labour to the Nazis or Zanu-PF. But no, put it in a long red and white dress and have it come of the mouth of someone who’s known the pleasure of neither woman nor man, and suddenly equating gay people with terrorists and global warming is the height of theological rhetoric.
What is it with Ben 16 and the gays anyway? He’s like a Catholic Richard Littlejohn. On and on and on and on and on and on and bloody on. Is such an obsession with homosexuality healthy, I ask myself. You look at the state of the world and you really have to wonder.

What a moron. Of all the times of year for one of the major figures in Christianity start taking shots at homosexual couples, this surely wasn’t the best choice.

Excellent post. And the tragic thing is, in the UK (luckily) we have no idea of how influential Ben the 16th in half the world.
There are seriously millions out there who would honestly pull a gun to their own arse if the Pope told them so.

Once a fascist, always a fascist… Remember that this guy’s last job was ‘Nazi sympathiser’.
Given that his wrathful stone age deity allegedly drowned the whole world and everything in it because it displeased him (Genesis 6-7), Benedict obviously has our best interests at heart.
Following the example of Noah & Lot, wouldn’t the faithful expect God to save them from the rising flood waters?
What you need to remember, in my opinion, is that the Catholic Church is a business. It exists to make money.
The purpose of Catholics is to donate money to the Church, and to breed lots of little Catholics to become future money-pits. And so unto the Second Coming.
This explains their hatred of homosexuality and, also, contraception.
Goodwill To All (Straight) Men?

He’s like a Catholic Richard Littlejohn.
This is surely unjust. I doubt if Littlejohn would be nearly so tolerant of kiddy-fiddlers, even if they happened to work for him.
