People have wondered when Michael Moore will finally go too far...

Michael Moore has tackled Downsizing, School Shootings, the culture of fear, The Iraq War, President Bush, and most recently - the American healthcare system. What’s next for the controversial documentary filmmaker? Homophobia. That’s right, Moore has revealed that homophobia and the anti-gay Christian right movement might be the topic of his next documentary.
“I think it’s a very ripe subject for someone like me to make a movie about. Simply because we are not there yet and it remains one of the last open wounds on our soul that we are not willing to fix yet,” Moore told The Advocate. “There is nowhere in the four Gospels where Jesus uses the word homosexual.’ The right wing has appropriated this guy … and they have used him to attack gays and lesbians, when he never said a single word against people who are homosexual. Anyone who professes to be a Christian and does that is certainly not following the teachings of Jesus Christ.”
Gay marriage has certainly become one of the hot button issues in this country. I can imagine the movie now: Moore will probably bring a Gay couple to a catholic church to get married. But when the parish turns him away, and Moore will pull out some clever funny idea that will get America to think “why not?”

Adultry is listed separately so I wonder what else Jesus meant by including sexual immorality. I would bet that would cover incest, pedophilia, beastiality, homosexuality, prostitution, orgies, fisting, S&M, etc etc.
After all, the grant junkies are screeching that obesity has surpassed evil tobacco as the Death Ray du Jour.
Come on Michael - show us that you really, really care.
Jesus also never rewrote Jewish Law. He speaks his mind about marriage being between a man and a woman at the marriage of Cana, which I believe is in the Gospel according to Paul.
First Frank Rich instructs me on how to be a Christian, and now it’s Michael Moore! How is it that these guys know so much more about it than I do?
Homophobia? Nah, more like homonausea - fags make me sick.
I believe Paul wrote Epistles rather than a Gospel. Try John Chapter 2.
Not surprising that morbidly obese Moore would now turn to the homos for some kind of attention since no woman would go anywhere near that slob.
What will be the title of this crockumentary? Fairyheit 911?
This bill is on the Senate floor being debated TODAY!
Watch Teletubby and Moses get arrested at the Capitol while angry bystanders demand the release of the purple teletubby, the “moral fiber of America.” See Public Advocate activists hit the streets with this street theater demonstrating against Ted Kennedy’s Thought Control Bill to give homosexuals special privileges: http://publicadvocateusa.org/
Public Advocate demonstrates in Washington, DC, protesting the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Protection Act (H.R. 1592), which would grant special rights to homosexuals. This law would add sexual orientation to federal hate crimes statutes.
Gee, tell us how you *really* feel :)
Autobiographical, no doubt.
Not that there aren't plenty of "Christians" giving him all he needs.
Moore is wrong. Jesus specifically approved of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Hahahahaha Funniest thing I have heard all day!
He also said “man must not lay with man, as with a women. Pretty clear to me! Also the Bible does use the word sodomy. Then there is the whole story in the Bible about men with men women with women, and his giving them over to their lustful ways.
You are absolutely right, and with this behavior, among others, AIDS can be said to be the least of their problems. Behaviors have consequences.

Actually, Jesus did refer to homosexuality in Mark 7:21. He uses the word pornea which means illegal sex acts: homosexuality, incest, adultery.
