I think he was Bi, if anything.

If he loved everyone, he was bisexual. No question about it.

But thanks, Elton! Great NSG topic!

He's God. He made everyone of us, and we're all his children. He's just being a good dad by loving his kids, that doesn't make him bi.

I'd think that the friendship with Mary Magdalene, and Martha and Mary the sisters would be more suspicious.

Though being called a sexual deviant for being gay is something I'm fairly used to, but the Catholic organisation whose spokesperson said:

Surely doesn't know much about the Bible. You can't be a sexual deviant if you never had sex, can you? :P

So yeah. Thanks to Elton John, an epochal moment has arrived. Worlds collide. Religion and sexuality, arguably our top topics, intermingle.

Was Jesus gay?

OMG! Jesus would bust yer ass for that! Seriously, he preached an instant death sentence of peadophiles child rapists.

You wanna yer ass to be kicked by a suspected fairy pacifist?

My guess, being convinced of his mission of love the labels are irrelevant. Jesus is OMNISEXUAL - He just rocks.

What a pity his church's hierarchy turned out to be such a sad, sad bunch of withered celibates and nonces.

What's the point of speculating about the sexuality of a fictional character?

If it's not mentioned in the source material, that indicates that the author simply didn't think it important enough to be worth calling attention to -- or didn't even conceive of the character with a sexual orientation in the first place. You can think pretty much whatever you want, therefore; all answers are equally correct (or equally incorrect, as the case may be).
One of many Czardas puppets. I regarded this as my main account upon creating it and for several years thereafter, but these days, that's no longer important.
Death is patient, death is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Death does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

What about the Gnostic Christians? They were round half a millenia before Catholicism, with all the other Gospels (Mary Mags, Thomas, Judas). They're referred to as the Apocrypha, because they didn't marry with the myth Emperor Constantine put forward in the Nicean Creed.

Secret Gospel of Mark?
You know, partially-clothed doesn't mean naked.
Plus, 'secrets of the Kingdom of God" almost always mean baptism.

What's wrong with that statement is that Catholics are not against homosexual orientation, they are against practising homosexuality. This type of Christian generally venerates someone who is able to repress their "sinful" desires, and would never brand them a "deviant". That's from my experience of Catholics. Personally, I don't see why if Christians still eat pigs and shellfish, they still choose to believe that sodomy is evil. You can't pick and choose which rules to obey! No, I don't think there is anything about being gay or bi that's worse than mixing milk and meat.

As for Elton John? Some attention-seeking fat guy whose music I couldn't give any less of a shit about. Why we have to listen to his worthless opinion about possibly the most influential human being in history, I really don't know (especially when what he says will offend many millions of Christians and Muslims).

In an interview with US magazine Parade, John said he believed Jesus Christ was a "compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems".


Wait, how does Elton know this? He's pulling our leg. He wasn't around back then.
