Or as the headline says on Queerty, which broke the story: Antigay Pastor Is A Top Who Likes to Cuddle



Now let's all sing along with Mr. Mercury: "And another one bites the dust..."

Whoops, almost forgot: Trigger Warning: Posted in the Atheists/Agnostics Group, a safe haven where the clergy is often mocked. Even when they are not hypocritical bigots.

1. We can only imagine the negative affect his idiotic preaching

had on any child figuring out who they are, or any family of LGBT. Yes, drag him out into the sunshine for all to see and let the chips fall where they may.. the pastor sure didn't give a shit about any negative affects he may have had on his flock.

2. Does "anti-gay" ever also not equal "closeted, self-loathing"?

You would think that closeted, self-loathers would have learned by now that being publicly homophobic is the clearest signal they can send that they're having trouble reconciling their sexuality with their ideology?

Or, maybe they know that's what everybody assumes and are waiting for someone to say, "hey, it's OK, you can be yourself -- it's hypocrites that nobody likes, not gays."

3. Welcome to DU and the A&A room

[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]I think people like him are so deep in denial they don't even realize they are the very thing they hate. He probably found some way to rationalize away his behavior and used his religion to justify his actions.

But, you can't run from the truth forever, sooner or later it catches up to you and extracts its price, and now his own self-hate is laid bare for all the world to see.[/font]

4. I am not too suprised...

It is an all too common fact that there a lot of either closeted gays or an even larger number of pedophile priests. And they have the nerve to shame the rest of society for any sexual predilection! Of all the things I despise the most hypocrisy tops my list.

5. Do these people lack a basic understanding of how the Internet works?

In any case, I'm glad he was ripped out of this holier-than-thou closet!

6. Preachers are not too smart, to start

burying your head in the Babble is not really being very "well-read".

And they seem to consider being gay a personal weakness or failing. The sexual urge is so strong, they indulge, and consider it a moral failing, so they lash out at gays, then are compelled to indulge again. And for some insane reason (again, they ain't too smart), they post pictures on the internet!!

The smart ones end up becoming atheists.

7. There has to be a joke about the second coming of Jesus somewhere in there.

8. What's that phrase I'm trying to think of? It's right on the tip of my tongue but I just can't quite

oh yeah.... "HAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! (deep breath) HA HA HA HAH HA HA HAAAAA!"
