A response to Catholic Online about homosexuality in comics
Thanks to Earth 2’s Green Lantern Alan Scott being reimagined as a gay character, Catholic Online asks Are Comic Books Marketing Homosexuality to Children? A Troubling Sign of the Times:
Superheroes should be protecting the innocent, catching bad guys, and serving up justice. Overt homosexual practice, and promoting the agenda related to promoting it, should have no place or in the pages of comic books especially when they are marketed towards children. The fact that it does is just one more sign that the homosexual equivalency agenda is rolling full steam through the fabric of our nation.
And this is our answer:
You can always count on organized religion to shove their knee-jerk bigotry down our throats.
“… especially when they are marketed towards children.”
Ah, yes.
Of course comic books are all intended for children and no adult would ever read or buy one.
Only gay adults, Mike.
I lost 2 so-called “friends” over this issue, and frankly I think I’m better off without them. But for the cheap seats: COMICS AREN’T JUST FOR KIDS! Get with the 21st century oh wait this is the Catholic Church…they’re still stuck in 14th century.
Hell I doubt many kids (12 and under) read comics these days anyway. Which is the real tragedy.
14th?
Methinks you’re being generous.
