		<description>It is a pity that these little tiffs between the various godidiots don&#039;t get wider coverage in the mainstream media. How ridiculous and irrelevant must their views on sexuality be to today&#039;s generation of teens and twenty-somethings. I really can&#039;t understand why any gay person would want to associate with such people,  why doesn&#039;t Rev. Rennie tell them all to go and get stuffed? I suppose it would mean that he would have to go and get a proper job.</description>

		<description>I heard that fuckwit, idiot anti gay twat.   Every word in the bible is true.   That is our guide.   Why doesn&#039;t some interviewer slap some really bad bits in front of him.    </description>

		<description>They call themselves &lt;i&gt;Forward Together&lt;/i&gt; yet they&#039;re trying to stay ever in the Dark Ages.  How typical.   
 
It&#039;s not a wonder these fools are becoming more irrelevant all the time.  They&#039;re so obsessed with peoples&#039; genitals and what they do with them rather than things that really matter.  </description>

		<description>Mormon president David O. McKay suffered from Alzheimer&#039;s for several years before his death in 1970 at the age of 97. His condition was never made public, and the reason I know about it is that his dealings with my then-employer, a prominent entertainer who became a Mormon for economic reasons and quit when they demanded a quid pro quo, made it transparently clear.  He made a deal to encourage Mormons to attend the entertainer&#039;s performances, and later wrote a letter to all regional bishops instructing them not to do so, not out of any disenchantment or change of attitude, but because he had no recollection of ever meeting the entertainer or promising him anything.  Either the LDS council were unaware of his condition, or consciously suppressed it.  Either way, the existence of a president with Alzheimer&#039;s is one more proof that Mormonism has no protector in the sky watching out for its welfare. </description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if Forward Together are linked to the Anglican group Forward in Faith (or Backwards in Bemusement, as I&#039;ve labelled them when piss-taking in the local press), but if so they not only dislike gays but women...and indeed most of the rest of the population! 
One of the funniest F in F stories I heard concerned a local rep whose supporters somehow forgot to mention to the national body that she had Alzheimers. She served for several years without anyone noticing, which tells you what kind of loons we&#039;re dealing with. </description>

		<description>So according to Watson, its wrong to have a relationship with a consenting member of the same sex?  
So the thing to do is supress your natural urges and take it out on underage children under you care ala RC priests? </description>
