Tony Blair has challenged the “entrenched” attitudes of the Pope on homosexuality, and argued that it is time for him to “rethink” his views.

Speaking to the gay magazine Attitude, the former Prime Minister, himself now a Roman Catholic, said that he wanted to urge religious figures everywhere to reinterpret their religious texts to see them as metaphorical, not literal, and suggested that in time this would make all religious groups accept gay people as equals

WHAT IS UP WITH TONY BLAIR?????

The former prime minister has stepped up his campaign for the job, which he wants to use to build a bridge between Europe and the new Obama administration. His return to the global stage would be a shock to his critics over the Iraq war and dismay many in Europe. But The Independent on Sunday has learnt that Mr Brown has accepted that his old rival should be in pole position for the appointment, on the basis that Britain needs to have a key figure in the architecture of the "new world order

accept gay people as equals

Who said they are not, "equal?" It's just that the practice of homosexuality is wrong.

[al baby]

[Ann Archy]

[Jeb21]

Arrogant prick. You’re not even a real Catholic!

[Obadiah]

Tony, don’t take it up with the Pope, take it up with God. He said it, plain as day.

[Caipirabob]

"Oi Pope! Wot's a yob to do when 'e's feelin' randy in choich on a 'ot summas day?!?"

[chris_bdba]

The pope should’ve asked him why he converted if he doesn’t believe church doctrine?

[Antoninus]

Speaking to the gay magazine Attitude, the former Prime Minister, himself now a Roman Catholic...

I guess we now see the reason for Phony Tony's phony conversion.

What a freak.

‘Tony’s really got a thing for the homosexuals.’

And that is surprising how? I know he’s British but the gaydar is going off.

[SoldierDad]

End of Days here we come.

[Ben Mugged]

I’m just sure the Pope is going to rewrite the Bible based on popular sexual mores.

[jonrick46]

Tony Blair, obviously, has not taken the time to research his erroneous moral issues dealing with homosexuality.

[Le Chien Rouge]

I will tolerate a homosexual individual.

However, I refuse to accept the ACT of “gay sex” as a natural behavior.

[Argus]

If Tony Blair wanted to be in a church where homosexual conduct is approved of, gays can get married, women can be ordained, and so forth, he should have remained an Episcopalian. They even have the same nifty vestments, smells and bells and all the rest of the trappings. What’s the point of crossing the Tiber anyway?
