Upset over the Anglican Communion’s refusal to condemn the ascension of openly gay Bishop Gene Robinson, the Global Anglican Future Conference Movement flew to Uganda this week to consolidate their anti-gay sentiment.
Indian Bishop Vinay Samuel explains This meeting is an exercise to explain the declaration we made after [this summer’s] conference in Jerusalem. We need to explain to those who disagree with us on the issue of taking the authority of the Bible as we do.”
Like so many homophobic activists, the Movement’s members insist they’re not hating on the gays. They just want to straighten them out. Says Nigerian Bishop Nicholas Okoh: “We are telling people in homosexual relations that we appreciate you as human beings, but it’s not a rightful relation. The right relationship is that between a man and a woman.” Hmmm, if that’s true, why do our gay ways feel so right?

“…why do our gay ways feel so right?”
Because the JAGUAR SPIRIT is upon us. Repeat the magical words—”Coo coo ka choo”—and you shall be released! (ノ゜.ã‚œ)ノ ~~~~~* It’s maaaagic!

There is a standard of rightness beyond how we feel. Feeling something is right does not make it so.

Lately, it seems the bigots are watering down their comments. I’m not sure if I’m entirely pleased about that.
I actually prefer the old-fashioned style of bigotry in the sense that fair-minded people would prefer to disassociate themselves from the opinions of brutish and evil creatures.
I guess they’ve figured out that they’ve becoming living caricatures, and are trying a new tack.
Shall we call it the “perrier and water” school of hypocrisy?
