Jesus was gay?

sarah_webinc · 05-29-2003

Jesus was gay and so were at least three of his 12 disciples, according to an Australian academic.

Dr Rollan McCleary said Jesus's astrological chart, clues in the scriptures and biblical translations, all played a part in his conclusions.

In a forthcoming book, he attempts to present St John's Gospel in a new light to back up his claims, reports the Herald Sun.

Dr Rollan McCleary, a University of Queensland PhD graduate who now lives in Melbourne, has just been awarded his doctorate for a thesis on gay spirituality.

An Anglican and a qualified reader of astrological charts, Dr McCleary said the planet Uranus figured prominently in Jesus's astrological chart, as it did with many gays.

What the story doesn't mention is the furore over the $51k grant paid by the govt to the student.

Oh gawd....wait til the fundies see that...haha....they have a hard enough time dealing with the idea that King James (VI of Scotland, I of England, the guy who 'put together' the 'King James Version' of the bible...the most popular version amongst Christians) might have been gay. (a very popular practice back in those days for monarchs)

But, now Jesus and a few disciples? wow...lol

But it looks like that 51k negates the research and any hope of legitimate debate....too bad...
