Gays Just Perverts Cardinal Declares
http://www.365gay.com/newscon04/01/012104gayPervs.htm

Signaling a new wave of anti-gay pronouncements endorsed by the Vatican, Belgium's Cardinal Gustaaf Joos has declared that 95 percent of all gays are nothing more than sexual perverts.

Only five to 10 percent of all lesbians and gays "are actually gay" Joos told the Belgian weekly P-Magazine in an interview.

"I am willing to write in my own blood that of all those who call themselves lesbian or gay, a maximum of five to 10 percent are effectively lesbian or gay," Joos said. "All the rest are just sexual perverts," he added.

what an asshole :eyes:

3. Like a priest has any credibility


when it comes to sexuality. If he was talking about pedophelia maybe he'd be worth listeninig to.

5. um....
ok, this is making my brain hurt, but how do you tell if someone is "actually" gay, vs someone who merely engages in "gay" activities?

:shrug:

here's his answer:

"Real homosexuals don't wander in the streets in colorful suits. Those are people who have a serious problem and have to live with that. And if they make a mistake they will be forgiven. We have to help these people and not judge them," Joos said in the interview."

11. No he's not.
I'm not sure if that's a joke, but the cardinal is indeed referring to all lesbians and gay men.

9. Hey, leave Satanists out of it!

They are for sexual freedom. All forms of freedom. The most rational religionists going.

They don't perform the black mass or use baby fat candles. The church has made a mockery of itself. It's passe with Satanists.

Feel free to reference 'The Satanic Bible', it is a wonderful expression of personal philosophy (politically centre/left)
