No better feeling...


...than to be able to say - "TOLD YOU SO!"

In April this year I wrote about the "new" pope and what I think of him. I called him "The most conservative right-wing crusader they had among their ranks", and with the newest paper that the Vatican (i.e. Papa Razzi) has issued, I'm proven right once again.

Here's what CNN reports:
"The Church, while profoundly respecting the persons in question, cannot admit to the Seminary and to Holy Orders those who practice homosexuality, present deeply rooted homosexual tendencies or support the so-called gay culture."
(quoted without permission)

Ah. Why not just say "We don't want any faggots in the service!" It's what the army in the US did at one point, and at least they were up-front about it. And this is the Catholic Church, the supposedly highest instance when it comes to truth.

Oh, and that paper has more to say. It makes a clear distinction between gays and a so-called "expression of a transitory problem."

Ex-fucking-cuse me!?

Any honorable gay person (men and women alike) will holler with laughter at that - are there really people who are "temporarily gay"? I very much doubt it.

Why's this happening? There have been a couple (and quite a couple in the past 2000 years, I would say...) of cases where gay priests have abused little boys. That's why the Church doesn't want gays anymore becoming priests.

So far, so good.

BUT - if they were really honest about it (which they won't ever be, they're the Catholic Church, for fucks sake!!) they would analyze the cases where non-gay priests have abused little girls. But that might lead them to not accept heterosexuals anymore... and then they'd be in deep shit.

Their only luck at the moment is that there seem to be more heterosexuals than homosexuals in the world. If it were the other way round, I'm sure ONLY gay priests would be welcome anymore...

Bloody hypocrites!
