Sadly, this is not a joke.

This is the official logo for the Diocese of Cleveland Gay and Lesbian Family Ministry.

Unable to decide between two perfectly good homosexual symbols, the Diocese of Cleveland decided to use both the triangle and the rainbow along with a decapitated dove for its gay and lesbian family ministry logo.

It is unclear what is the significance of the decapitated dove.

The logo also can be scene here:

They take pride in their sin.

It is time to say enough. Please consider sending a brief e-mail to these two Cleveland bishops encouraging them to put an end to this nonsense.

[concerned about politics]

Why cut off the head of a dove?
Now that's scary!
The dove is suppose to represent purity and peace, right?

[patent]

Good grief.

[HiTech RedNeck]

WHY DOESN'T THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH SAW OFF THIS "DIOCESE" PRONTO. IS IT AN UNOFFICIAL WEBSITE?

[roachie]

May God have mercy upon these poor, demented and unenlightened souls.

[apochromat]

I think it's a pterodactyl.

[The Shootist]

The dove is not decapitated. It is a dove in abstract.

Some people used to find Commies hiding under every bed. Now they find queers. Enlightening.

"Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle...

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

The downward pointing of the triangle and direction of the strange looking dove are the opposite of the usual spiritual depiction. How can I say this? It appears to represent those opposed to Christianity and what it stands for. Now who might that be?

[smith288]

Unrelenting support of the homosexual lifestyle. Im not catholic, but I do support their views on certain issues.... But this cause me to shake my head at them. I am for bringing in gays into church to help them hear the gospel but I am not in support of creating gay groups so they can grow their sinful behavior.

[ex-Texan]

Sorry it is not a headless dove ... it is a demonic creature (a bat?) blazing in satanic colors.

[GKBelloc]

I wonder how much of the money I've given the diocese over the years went to the artist who designed the gay, headless dove?

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Sure it's a dove and not Jonathan Livingston Seagull?

[Coleus]

Unbelievable.

[Coleus]

Thanks, I just sent my e mail. Have you contacted Cardinal Ratzinger? or any other Vatican Official? I would suggest a certified letter to them.

[F16Fighter]

Unbelievable arrogance! Apparently some of the contingent of gay infestation within the Church has decided to declare war? Is this the tip of the iceberg of things to come and a call for solidarity now?

Soon even Dracula himself will crawl out from his casket, smear on the sunscreen and grab himself a beach chair.
