Who “cares” what an aging singer thinks of Jesus?
Christian theologians should not digify his comments with debate.

Elton is not going to enjoy death as much as he hates life.

Elton John is a trashy, stupid person.

Even putting aside the offensive part of it, his comments don’t even make any sense.

Elton John is one of the most overrated performers in history. His music and his opinions are irrelevant.

Try being a gay woman in the Middle East -- you're as good as dead." – Elton John

Or a gay man for that matter. At least Queen Elton got this right. But Jesus as a gay man? Ugh......

Many artists have made themselves and their art too hard for me to enjoy.

Elton failed that test many years ago. Unfortunately for me he is high on both the talent and stupid scales. ;-(

That being said there are certain actresses that are "not guilty" ;-)

Dame Elton is a bit late to the party. This ideas so 90’s. That’s what happens when the breasts start sagging - the creative juices stop flowing and you have to plagiarize.

“CORPUS CHRISTI” TO RUN IN FALL; PROTEST MOUNTS

Terrence McNally’s “Corpus Christi,” a play about a Christ-like character who has sex with the apostles, is scheduled to open in New York this fall. It had previously been withdrawn but then it was rescheduled; the producer, the Manhattan Theatre Club, succumbed to pressure from the artistic community and put the play back on the drawing board.

Following the announcement to cancel the play, thirty major playwrights signed a letter demanding that the Manhattan Theatre Club stick to its guns. It was signed by Tony Kushner, Arthur Miller, Christopher Durang, A.R. Gurney, Stephen Sondheim, Wendy Wasserstein and others.

From the beginning, the Catholic League has led the fight against this “gay Jesus” play. Over the summer, the league is building a coalition of Catholic, Protestant, Jewish and Muslim groups who object to this blasphemy. The early support from the Orthodox Jewish community has been outstanding.

The media response to the league’s objections has been incredible. Most of the reporting has been fair, but some of the commentaries have been unfair, not to say hypocritical. Leading the way in this regard was a May 28 editorial in the New York Times, entitled “Censoring Terrence McNally.” The Catholic League answered the Times with an op-ed page ad of its own (see p.2).

Neither the playwright nor the producer will release a copy of the script to the Catholic League. But a story in the New York Times says that the script “from the beginning to the end retells the Biblical story of a Jesus-like figure—from his birth in a Texas flea-bag hotel with people having profane, violent sex in the room next door to his crucifixion as ‘king of the queers.’” It adds that the Christ-like character, Joshua, “has a long-running affair with Judas and sexual relations with the other apostles”; the Jesus-figure also has sex on stage, albeit in a nonexplicit way, with an HIV-positive street hustler.

The play ends by saying, “If we have offended, so be it. He belongs to us as well as you.” The league urges its members to write to their congressman and senators demanding an end to support for the National Endowment for the Arts (the Manhattan Theatre Club receives NEA grants). The league will unveil other strategies in due course.

I don't know what makes people so cruel.

Yeah...me neither. Try standing up for what is right per Biblical teaching and you'll find out how cruel people are.

Sir Elton John has not said anything that The History Channel and the New York Times Book review section hasn’t said. For years they have implied the homosexuality of Jesus Christ. It is sad that some gays cannot wrap their heads around the fact that Jesus Christ was not a gay man.

If I was a homosexual I would try to justify my sinful lifestyle by claiming the same thing. Very ridiculous but not surprising. Homosexuals are “captives” to their own sin.

I know it is tough but we need to pray for Elton John that he turns away from his sinful lifestyle and turns to the “real” Jesus.

Elton John should be reminded of the statement, “Lord, Liar, or Lunatic, which one is it?”

Well, at least Elton John is not a superintelligent gay man.

Someone needs to reeducate the man about Christ, the Bible and Marriage. Marriage in the Bible is core to the philosophy. It is between one woman and one man. The values the Bible speaks of are the rudimentary glue for the continuity and success of the family and the religion. It is the Bible which gave mankind many things,including love and the ability to elevate themselves from creatures of the field. The values from the Bible is what gave us the advancements through choice in freedom, liberty , rights and democracy.
Choice, is what allows Elton to make such an ass of himself.
Had he demonstrated any knowledge in his confusion, it would have allowed him to voice that opinion of Mohammed and his followers. Not Christ.
