Safety first Colin (says Peter)...









...further to the shock announcement from Doyle Redland (right) that McDonalds will be forced to place health warnings on individual french fries (Onion news here) comes the timely call from Rev. Pete Mullen (left)for a tattooed health warning on gay buttocks...

Reverend Peter Mullen posted on his blog that homosexuals should be tattooed with the slogan: "Sodomy can seriously damage your health."

The Chaplain to the London Stock Exchange and rector(sic) in the City of London also called for gay pride parades, Che Guevara Tshirts, cyclists wearing lycra and gay themed carnivals to be banned.

The 66 year old insisted it had all been a joke, but had to remove the comments from his blog - and has since issued a "frank, full, utter total and complete apology".

He said his remarks were "injudicious" and had caused offence.

The Diocese of London said the blog is in no way reflective of their views Colin, and that while clergy are entitled to personal views, "we recognise that the content of this text is highly offensive and may even be seen as homophobic".

The remarks were also condemned by gay rights campaign group Stonewall, the Elton John fanclub, the Chelsea Flower Show organising committee, PETA, the IPPC and Boy George...more. The reckless Rev. also has on opinion (my God!) about other things...

...Anticipating an "agreeable carnage" at the start of the annual Hajj, the Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, he wrote: "They usually manage to stampede and slaughter quite a few hundred of their co-religionists. Just imagine for a moment what a field day the BBC and the leftwing press in England would have if anything even remotely as bad as that happened in Vatican Square at Christmas or Easter." He said also that Muslims "certainly lend themselves to ridicule: sticking their arses in the air five times a day. How about a few little choruses, 'Randy Muslims when they die/Find 70 virgins in the sky'?" ...more here..and here...

I rather like the cut of the man's jib Colin...the blog at the centre of it all, here...
