Child Molesters, Yes! Gay Bar Owners, No!
One more reason to hate the corrupt Catholic church, the people who brought you the game "Let's Look The Other Way!" during The Holocaust, and the more recent South American game, "Promote AIDS, Not Birth Control!" According to an AP story, the church, via San Diego's bishop, has denied a funeral to a 31-year-old man who owned a gay bar and a dance club popular with gays before he died of congestive heart failure:

In other cases across the country, some priests accused of sexual abuse have been granted Catholic funeral services, including John Geoghan, the Boston Archdiocese former priest whose sex-abuse case helped spark a nationwide Church scandal.

McCusker owned Club Montage, a nightclub popular with gays, and ReBar, a gay bar.

Several gay community leaders said they planned to file a formal protest with the diocese and demand that Brom apologize to McCusker's family.

A memorial service for McCusker on Friday was moved to an Episcopal church in San Diego.

I'm reminded of the priest somebody told me about, who invited elementary school boys into his room to share his air-conditioning on hot summer days -- if only they'd join him in donning diapers (and do who knows what else behind clothes doors). Whaddya wanna bet he got a nice, big, flowery church funeral? Pedophiles, yes! A guy who was very likely a decent man who happened to like other decent men...NO, NO, NO!
