Some of it is offensive, but it also results in some wonderful images of gay Jesues, or “Jesi” as they are called.

I’ve been planning to blog about the Hunky Jesus contest too, but hadn’t yet figured out the right approach… plus I’m still busy posting your “Passion of Christ: A Gay Vision.” The last painting will be posted tomorrow at the Jesus in Love Blog. <br /><br />Your approach to Hunky Jesus is most eloquent and I plan to link to it when and I blog on the subject.Kittredge Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617858676733169316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-10560888839698313412011-04-28T21:56:52.946-04:002011-04-28T21:56:52.946-04:00...and isn't the Anglo-Catholic part of the ch......and isn't the Anglo-Catholic part of the church opposed to the ordination of women?!<br /><br />I love this post Counterlight.

In England, the Anglo-Catholic part of the Church of England has been dominated by gay priests since the time of John Henry Newman. Yet this is the faction of my church that has been most vocal in their opposition to moves to allow gay priests the freedom to be open about their sexuality and moves to allow same sex couples to be married in church.<br /><br />Life is so weird sometimes.MadPriesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15120376342802143188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-23022869020935994672011-04-28T01:35:53.240-04:002011-04-28T01:35:53.240-04:00Preach it, brother Doug!Preach it, brother Doug!IThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09605163506396013904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-38188608768028806142011-04-27T22:05:10.975-04:002011-04-27T22:05:10.975-04:00The city with the largest concentration of same se...<i>The city with the largest concentration of same sex families is not San Francisco or New York, but Jacksonville, Florida.<br /><br />Gay radicals, with some justice, accuse gay Christians of being quislings of an established "mainstream" culture that is corrupt to the root.</i><br /><br />This juxtaposition is pointed.<br /><br />A few weeks ago, a news bureau (CBS?) did a story re same-sex families in Jacksonville, noting their (frequent) female&black...and CHRISTIAN character. <br /><br />This story was linked to on the (predominantly gay male) site, Joe.My.God., and it prompted a torrent of contempt (including racist and misogynist contempt.
