Why reading this you would think she wasn't allowed to wear her red high heels in public.

1. "Christians suffer most"

That's fucking rich!

2. I don't think he has any intention of blaming gays

Gays don't control the government in places where Christians are subject to persecution. In fact, in many of the same places gays don't have it so great either. The pope focuses on Christians because he represents Christians, but the larger issue is the lack of respect for basic rights in many parts of the world.

5. He speaks for one outdated religion

he does not speak for Christians

4. Hmm, after 700 years of the Catholic Inquisition, they've got a

lot of nerve to talk about persecution. nt
