In a speech recently, Pope Benedict said "...Homosexual relations are a destruction of God's work". It sounds a lot like the ranting of his first master, who once said. “Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it” .
Words carry power in the mind of the faithful. When you tell true believers that gays are destroying Gods work, the true believers start destroying gays. “ Pope Benedict's words are irresponsible.
