In another Easter interview, to the gay magazine Attitude, Mr Blair urged the Pope to rethink his “entrenched” attitude on gays. While serving as Prime Minister, Mr Blair was said not to “do God”. Since leaving office he has set up the Tony Blair Faith Foundation, which intends to promote understanding of the world's main religions and show how faith is “a powerful force for good in the modern world”. He has also taught a class at Yale University on faith and globalization.

These stupid western liberals will be the death of the rest of us.

Far more dangerous than terrorists who would attack us with bombs and bullets, these traitors are killing us with multiculturalism and “tolerance.”

Tony is trying for the fastest "conversion-to-excommunication" run in history.

Just pathetic.

Uh huh. I’ll believe that when I see it.
Complete with pichforks, since that is probably the only thing that they have left.

If he’s reading the Koran everyday, he shouldn’t be addressing the Pope...

the Pope to rethink his “entrenched” attitude on gays

So he should advocate open public execution of gays based on his beloved Koran?

[Heartland Mom]

No kidding. Rhetorical question - why do we NEVER hear of these “enlightened” leaders asking Muslim leaders to rethink their position. Hmmmmmm.

"I mean, how benighted! Just because Moslems have a long history of pedophilia, bestiality, pedarasty, and mass murder, doesn't mean we shouldn't bend over backwards to get along!"

It is amazing how easy it is to intimidate a coward.

Didn't Blair convert to Catholicism during last years Easter Vigil?

And as they were going along the road they came to some salt, and the eunuch said, "See, here is salt! What prevents me from having it rubbed in my wound?" - Acts 8:36, AMV (Alex Murphy Version)

How do so many idiots rise to such high places?
