pope says stop it

I am not gay and have no particular stand on the issue, {"live and let live" is my motto} but for the Pope to say that "saving humanity from homosexual or transexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction" is little short of bizarre.

This is very interesting for the Pope to say this, in light of the fact that so many of the Catholic Church CEO's priests have engaged in homosexual practices both recently and down through the centuries.

There was at least one Pope in history who was well known to have a particular likeing for little boys.

Sound familiar?

All this from the head of the church that until 400 years ago, still believed that the sun revolved around the earth.

From the BBC website "Pope's comments cause outrage"

The Pope has told members of his Vatican staff that saving humanity from homosexual or transexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.

Blurring the differences between male and female, he reasons, could lead to the destruction of the human race.

If the rainforest deserves protection, then humankind deserves it no less, he says.
