Thought for the Day

Pope Benedict XVI has said that saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.

Edit: This analysis of the original speech is interesting. (Once more, it's epi_lj with the pointery goodness).

That's a start. The Church evidently couldn't care less about environmentalism, so it would be a welcome relief if they cut the same breaks to teh gay. After a few generations of equity, maybe our descendants could appreciate that Christians are Biblically called to stewardship of the Earth but there is no such call to bossing around our non-believing neighbor.
