>>Gandalf’s gay? That explains why he never punched that moron Frodo.<<

I’ve wondered if that’s why he turned down the Dumbledore role.

What a man. Now do it with the Koran.

For his reference, he needs to rip out the pages containing the following verses: 7:80-81, 26:165-6, 27:54-55, 29:28-29.

The reactions of Christians I see here seems generally along the lines of a reasonable "You idiot." We know what the Muslim reaction will be if he takes your advice.

"I wonder if ripping out pages of the Bible changes the intended meaning."

Maybe he's doing research for a new "Martin Luther" movie.

>>Tolkien’s thoughts on human sexuality are most clearly represented in his personal writings.<<

I wonder what the author bases that on. Its a rare father who doesn’t discourage sex by his kids no matter what the father feelings in general about sex are.

Ripping Leviticus 18:22 out of the Bible doesn’t change the truth. Homosexuality is a sin, and repentance is the cure through a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 10:9-10, 1 John 1:9).

And in the process admits it's a sin.

When I used to travel in the Middle East I would peel up the arrows on the nightstand, pointing to Mecca, and turn them around.

Did you pee facing Mecca? That would have completed the effect.

Sounds like he's imitating Luther.

this fag certainly isn’t a believer in the Bible, making vandalism of it a hate crime, no ?

So he actually admits that there are passages in the Bible against homosexuality? I wonder what the reaction is of his fellow gays who protest that there’s nothing in the Bible like that. Oops!

This just goes to show that one can be a very good actor and still be a maroon.

I'm not sure, but somehow, I think not.

The bible is like a hologram. You can tear out pages and not much resolution is going to be lost.

McKellen added, "I think it's rather obscene and pornographic, and shouldn't be there, so I remove it."

And does so with complete ignoramic arrogance. May he search for The Truth one day.

Well, he won’t be able to declare on judgment day that he didn’t know what the Bible said about his deeds.
