Newman died over a 100 years ago. Was also very orthodox.

Newman was a known homo...He wanted to be buried in the same grave as his boyfriend...And he was Orthodox, eh???

Plenty of men and women in the 18th and 19th century were buried in the same plot. Especially close friends. Lincoln slept with men and it’s a documented fact.
Was he a homosexual? I don’t think Lincoln was a homosexual and anymore than I think Newman was. It used to be possible to have close friends of the same sex with being considered homosexual. Newman started living a celibate life at the age of 15, when he was an Angelican.

That's a serious charge--one that I have never heard before. Can you document it?
