Christian conservatives continue to whine about anything gay that even touches their religion. Bored with crucifying The Book of Daniel, they’re now turning their pitchforks and flaming torches to cutie Chad Allen and his new based ona true story movie, End of the Spear.
Critics are praising the movie and plenty of churches have been promoting it. But since finding out Allen is gay, religious folks feel as if they’ve been duped into promoting a film with a flaming ‘mo portraying a holy missionary.
That oh-so unbiased World Net Daily digs up one of the real life kids of Allen’s character, Steve Saint (the religious associations just don’t stop):
Saint admitted, however, he was shocked when he learned Allen was homosexual. “I could feel physical pain,” he recalled, “thinking [that] somebody that lives a lifestyle like that is going to depict my dad.”
Funny. We had a similar physical reaction when we found out hets Jake and Heath were going to play gay onscreen. But we were just simply overcome by the hotness factor.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
So what does all of this negative attention to End of the Spear really mean? More publicity and a larger box office. As usual.
