I believe the coopting of the military martyrs Ss. Sergius and Bacchus as "gay icons" is the work of the late John Boswell. (N.B. The John Boswell webpage is on the fordham.edu website.)

I'm saddened to think that the church dedicated to these martyrs for the faith has fallen prey to this kind of scurrilous revisionism.

Thank you for being the voice of reason on this thread.
