Can we go just one flipping week without an ignorant bigot eruption from one of Papa Ratzi's boyz?

    Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan, a Mexican cardinal and emeritus president of the Pontifical Council for Pastoral Health (1996-2009), has said in an interview with Pontifex, that homosexuals and ->-bleeped-<-s "will never enter into the reign of God," appealing to St. Paul. "[T]rans e omosessuali non entreranno mai nel Regno dei Cieli, e non lo dico io, ma San Paolo." Later in the interview he says that he believes homosexuals are not born that way but become that.

As Andrew Sullivan observes, this cleric's BS isn't even in alignment with Catholic doctrine. The Prada-loving Pope, btw, has yet to say anything about the eliminationist legislation in Uganda.

Ah well, I'd rather go to hell with Good People, than sit on a cloud around a bunch of people who did good because they were Christian, not because they're good people.
All the cool kids are going to hell anyway.
(If one presumes that the christian religion got it right... )
