That symbol of gayness covered the crucifix in the church. The priest who put it up there was not sent to an insane asylum. The one who took it down and burned it was kicked out and declared insane.
Goodbye, catholic church. You made a hell of a mess out of your mandate.

No, you want 1950 back. You want gays to hide in their closet for the rest of their lives, just so you don't get your tender little feelings hurt.
<** singing **> You can't always get what you waaaant...
"That symbol of gayness covered the crucifix in the church."
No, it did not cover the crucifix in the church. The priest found it in storage where it had sat unnoticed for 10 years, and decided to burn it in an exorcism ceremony with some other people.
"The one who took it down and burned it was kicked out and declared insane."
He (Paul Kalchick) did not take it down, because it wasn't up. He was not declared insane, he is still at large and has not seen a doctor. What happened was a more senior priest had him removed.
Pope Francis says that God made LGBT people like that.
Enjoy your Sedevacantism, little Freeper.
...still, there's always the Protestant Republicans, which includes the Log Cabin Republicans and oh wait, you're fucked either way. >:D
Oh very good. So we can't have a gay pride symbol, but it's OK when your priests touch little boys? Ok then.
That offends me more, than the fact that your religious symbol was combined with what is the sacred Aboriginal symbol of the Rainbow Serpent.
This is what they burned:

Despite being told not to go forward with it, he did so anyway "privately," ostensibly to not anger the gay community but likely in order to not anger his higher-ups, who found out about it anyway and removed him. Good on them, I say.
Besides, how can you claim that that banner is specifically supporting homosexuality? It could be referencing the rainbow in the bible story about the flood. You know, the one which said that God wouldn't try to destroy humanity with a flood again? (even though he'll destroy humanity in other ways eventually)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
