Ironically, the Roman Catholic leadership has made the sect into what can certainly be called a hate group. Certainly, there is plenty of historical homophobia of the highest order, but we can also talk about contemporary actions. $100,000 (which people assume comes from the Mormons) was given to repeal Maine's law legalizing marriage while churches are being closed due to lack of funding. It has a released a 12 page anti-gay propaganda book. A cardinal compared gays to cockroaches.
Roman Catholicism was hand-in-hand with the Mormons in California to get Proposition 8 passed, too. That 12 page propaganda booklet included fear-mongering lies like "gays do violence to children" by raising them, apparently because they're the same gender which "stunts their growth". It says gays should be quarantined from kids by relatives, too. Just because Catholicism is popular doesn't mean it's not a hate group. As a former Catholic, I am very disappointed that it hasn't improved.
In contrast, the Quakers in the UK just made gay marriage legal in their sect. The largest Lutheran church in the US now legalized monogamous gay relationships to the point where such gays can serve as clergy -- no more ridiculous celibacy requirement. The Episcopal Church has also made great strides forward. The Mormons have fund-raising down and the Catholics are being played. Personally, I'd like to see the American church separate from the Vatican and stop behaving so hypocritically.
the ad evocated the nazzi and kkk images imidiately to me, but what a great idea to put it together with THIS music! Very well done, thanks for creating and posting it
Excellent work, Buzz. I hope your work gains more of an audience. i had chills going up my spine watching it and it'sfrightening that this kind of rhetoric is STILL floating around. BTW, do you know the origins of the fiery cross? Its origins have nothing to do with hatred, yet it has become one. Good luck with your work.
