It does not convince me that the church believes they were gay. The "irony" they refer to is that they were mocked as gay Christians. It is a possibility, of course, that they were, but it does not indict the church any, -- they just report what the historical record says.
Dear annalex,
It's possible that your interpretation is right. The English of the website isn't very good, and it may be that the folks who wrote what I quoted didn't mean it quite the way it came out.
However, the way it is actually written, the fairest reading of it is that it is ironic that the Roman Church is just so darned "anti-gay," since here, these two martyrs were gay lovers.
But you could be right that this is not what was meant by the individuals who put up the site and wrote the copy.
However, because I'm uncertain of what they actually were trying to say, I think with seamole, I'll be cautious regarding the site.
