From cock-up to farce

Thursday, July 24, 2008

THE ten-yearly gathering of posturing Anglican twits – better known as the Lambeth Conference 2008 – is descending in farce faster than you can say Archbishop Peter Akinola.
Latest comical reports from the event, which is being boycotted by around 250 African bishops , is that the number of those who ARE attending is being kept [...]

Same-sex unions give Muslims cause to kill Christians says idiotic Anglican

Wednesday, July 23, 2008

PILLOCK of the Week prize today goes to Dr Daniel Deng Bul, the Archbishop of Juba and Primate of the Sudan, who yesterday said that Sudanese Christians were being murdered by Muslims because the Anglican Church was seen to approve same-sex unions.
In a statement released on the second day of the Lambeth Conference, the Sudanese [...]

Another bloody cop-out!

Tuesday, July 22, 2008

NORFOLK Constabulary are having a Ladele moment. We call it that because one of their constables – like our Lillian, a Christian zealot whose bigotry prevented her from doing her job properly – is about to lay the “victim” card before an employment tribunal.
Bizarrely, Ladele, a registrar who refused to conduct same-sex civil [...]

Fundies fulminate when politicians dance

Sunday, July 20, 2008

THAT bastion of bigotry – LifeSiteNews.com – is beside itself with rage over the fact that a number of leading Canadian politicians, and, shock, horror, even some of a religious bent, joined in the festivities of Toronto’s recent “raunchy annual parade of homosexual revellers”.
On Friday, this obnoxious Christian fundamentalist “news” site – motto: News and [...]

Price and Prejudice

Wednesday, July 16, 2008

A 25-year-old man who was teased and humiliated for being gay has won a substantial payout from his employers, the Presbyterian Church of Wales, according to a report in the Pink Paper.
Stephen Price’s ordeal began almost as soon as he began working at the Coleg Trefeca centre with 40-year-old Mair Jones, his manager. The 37-bed [...]

Don’t you go a-messin’ with the Swedish gay Mafia

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

These guys are ruthless. Piss them off, and they’ll do far worse than break your coffee table’s legs – they’ll throw darts at your photographs!
Frankly, we are shocked. When we think of Sweden, images spring to mind of lovely landscapes, sexy blond people, Ikea furniture, that lovable, tubby chef in the Muppets … oh, and [...]

Catastrophe! Homophobic Christian registrar wins discrimination case

Friday, July 11, 2008

OH, they are so full of themselves – those self-righteous cranks over at the Christian Institute, where their head of communications, Mike Judge, yesterday gleefully declared:
… Gay rights should not be treated as trumping religious rights. The law [now] clearly recognises this.
Judge was all cock-a-hoop over a bizarre employment tribunal decision this week that a [...]

‘Don’t annoy Catholics’ law annoys Australians

Thursday, July 10, 2008

PASS an annoyingly stupid law, and people will soon rally to show their contempt for it – as they did yesterday in Sydney, Australia.
Wearing T-shirts that read “Pope Go Homo” and “The pope is wrong, put a condom on!,” a group of demonstrators poked fun at a new Australian law aimed at protecting Catholic participants [...]

Playboy, FHM are ‘pastorised’ in the Philippines

Tuesday, July 8, 2008

THE Philippines has its very own Mary Whitehouse figure – Bienvenido Abante, a politician and pastor of the Metropolitan Bible Baptist Church.
The rabid anti-smut campaigner first came to our attention back in 2006 when, as Chairperson of the Committee on Human Rights – yeah, you read that right – blew his top over proposed gay [...]

Gay Jesus porn movie approved by British censors

Saturday, July 5, 2008

THE British Board of Film Censors – no longer hamstrung by “blasphemy” concerns now that this “crime” has been abolished in the UK – has approved, without cuts, a pornographic film called Passio. It has been given an R18 rating.
Featuring Danny Fox as a homosexual Jesus, Passio – full title: Passio: Domini Nostri Secundum Matthaeum [...]
