Clergyman wants health warning stamp for gays
A CLERGYMAN has sparked outrage by demanding that gay men should have anti-homosexual health warnings tattooed on their BOTTOMS.
Rev Peter Mullen, 66, also wants cig packet-type messages on their chins to discourage other practices.
The chaplain to the London Stock Exchange wrote in an internet blog: “Let’s make it obligatory.”
Last night the Bishop of London Rt Rev Richard Chartres branded his comments “highly offensive”.
Gay groups called for the chaplain to quit.
But Rev Mullen insisted it was a joke, saying: “I’ve nothing against homosexuals.”
The SUN
isn't it already stamped in their passports???
You've gotta like the "some of my best friends..." defense. Riiiiiight!

Just read this, apparently the clergyman was joking:
On Sunday, papers caught up with the offensive reverend and he said that he was kidding around on his blog, "I wrote some satirical things on my blog and anybody with an ounce of sense of humour or any understanding of the tradition of English satire would immediately assume that they're light-hearted jokes. I certainly have nothing against homosexuals. Many of my dear friends have been and are of that persuasion. What I have got against them is the militant preaching of homosexuality."
well said
good point
Thanks :-)
My apologies.. Take a hot partner.. sorry a cup of hot soup, a good book and get plenty of rest..Hope you get better soon.,
Well Brit, I've got this Qatar Qrud that's been going around. I think you started it!
Thanks.. Hope you're well and enjoying yourself..
Welcome back, Brit :-)
The homosexuals I know practice safer sex then the hetrosexuals. If you're going to tattoo them on the bottoms you should tattoo hetreosexuals on the forehead.
got nothing against homos huh, sure... what was that they used to say?.. "it takes one to know one..."
