After hearing about the Michael Jackson trial the pope is said to have commented:

"If he keeps up messing around with children, i'll have no choice but to..............



..........make him a priest"

"We must try to stand in the shoes of those who have lost touch with the church. We sometimes hide the word of grace," "We must learn also to stand in the shoes of those who are different from us or who think differently from us." "We should try to stand in the shoes of those who are alienated by injustice. Too often we are blinded by our comfort. But when we are confronted by Jesus, we must become signs of grace for God's love and justice for others."

Rev. Pamela A Kerr, Moderator of the Uniting Church in Victoria.

We're not all bad afterall! At the Queer Week debate on religion, when I said things were changing for the better I think they really are and if we see this kind of turn around in other churches Gay people, faith or not, can be proud of institutionalised religion in this country (for once). We need to give those Queer Christian groups out there all of our support, thoughts and prayers for the great revolution they've set in motion, because it can be called nothing less than that. Next stop the Vatican. (Well I can only dream!). I hope the debate in the Anglican communion such moves will spark, can begin to make the World Churches think about their responsibility to gay people in terms of pastrol care, ministry and looking after the specific spiritual needs of gay people. One up for the new radicals!:irdface:
