Drudge: "ELTON JOHN: 'I WOULD BAN RELIGION COMPLETELY'"

Maybe GOD will Ban Elton.

He already has. Read Romans 1:18-32

[beaversmom]

This just exemplifies the idiocy and selfishness of some gays and the left. Rosie O'Donnell's recent comments about "the goodness in the world" is another prime example.

[Senator Goldwater]

he believes it promotes hatred of gays.
That's like accusing a mirror of promoting ugliness. The "hatred," which is really nothing more than rejection, is the result of homosexuality's abhorrent practices, not any "promotion" on the part of religion. Yes, religions, including Christianity, tend to reject homosexuality, but because it is a sin, not out of sadism.

And in the end (!), if the pressure against homosexuality causes a person to reassess his commitment to that abominable lifestyle and seek redemption, then the pressure saved him from the fruits of his sin.

And that is the ultimate in compassion, not the enabling mentality that permits a person to destroy himself.

This is solid analysis. This is why I read this site.

Well done.

[zbigreddogz]

Good grief.

I use to respect Elton John, because he seemed to be gay, but not to be the kind of activist nutcase that some are.

Apparently I was wrong.

[IronJack]

Queen Mother? Nah. Mother of all queens, maybe ...

[MrRights]

And GOD, sir john, has already banned homosexuality.

Payback will come in a later life... it's called judgement.

[Caipirabob]

Really, the guy's 60YO and hasn't figured out the user's manual yet? Does he really think he's an authority on anything other than how to be a freak?

[unspun]

No, please. This is Elton John, man. Please don't sing, either.

[Larry Lucido]

Shut up and, um, shut up.

[Jeff Chandler]

hatred and death done in the name of religion

Which pales in comparison to the hatred and death done in the name of atheism.

One of his good friends in Caleb Quaye, who played guitar in Bluesology with Reginald Dwight before he was Elton. Played on his first couple of albums. Spectacular guitar player.

Now, Quaye is an Evangelical Christian who instructs church worship leaders through the Foursquare Denomination. I saw him a couple of months ago at my church, and Quaye specifically mentioned that he talks to Elton regularly and witnesses to him, too. You never know....

[RetiredArmy]

Eltie is afraid that when the Muzzies take over England, he and his lover will be beheaded in Piccadilly Square.

[IronJack]

Thank you.

[freekitty]

ROTFLOL.

[dcnd9]

Religion isn't the problem Elton.... sin IS!!!

[Pajamajan]

Let's make sure we understand what he's saying: ALL religion should be banned.

This includes Islam right Elton- since it calls for gays to be murdered. Will we be seeing you leading the ban Islam movement in London?

[Old Professer]

Well, he's right, you know.

If everybody just got together and gave a big peace hug they would have to drop all their weapons and war would just simply cease to be a problem.

At least until the terrible body odor became too much to bear and they would go right back to being the same old way.

[teletech]

Now that the RATS have taken power, maybe religion will be banned here in the USA. It seems a fitting thing for a Godless party to do.

[Jeff Chandler]

That's like accusing a mirror of promoting ugliness

Homosexuality is hatred of one's very self, a hatred so deep that it one seeks to be the opposite of what he is.

[MadIvan]

I'd ban Elton John completely, but that's just me.
