Church Leader Says Bless Gay Couplings
"If we can bless battleships and foxhunts, why can't we bless a couple of human beings who want to be faithful to one another?" Holloway said. "Sex is the last hang-up of the church. We have been operating an ethic which is no longer appropriate to our time." Holloway added: "I think that gay priests should be allowed to have stable relationships just like straight priests. There are a lot of gay priests, of gay Christians, it's tough for them to feel marginalized, made into some kind of moral lepers, and the Church would collapse without them." Study: Gays are More Nurturing Dads Gay men are better dads than straight men, says a new study by Dr. Gill Dunne of the London School of Economics. After studying 100 gay fathers, Dunne concluded that gay men are more nurturing, caring, committed, sensitive and compassionate, more likely to maintain strong ties with kids after they split with a partner, and more likely to be on good terms with an ex. The men who were studied had become fathers via donor insemination, adoption, fostering and previous marriages to women. Calgary Police Supportive of Transsexual
The transsexual, who does not want to be identified in the media, said: "It's been a fairly easy transition. [I]t seems to be the safest place to be." The $8,000 (US$5,440) operation will be paid for by the provincial health-care program. |

Holloway, told the BBC Jan. 9 that he supports church blessings
of gay couples.
