<Alan Turing, the genius of Bletchley Park -- the secret British cryptography unit that cracked the German's Enigma machine code -- was famously gay.>

Well, there we go. Thanks for the help. I guess I could have asked my buddy Google.com [who I believe is also gay].

Insulting Alan Turing and telling him his help wasn't needed wouldn't have been too bright. Maybe part of the problem with military intelligence is military intelligence, quoting the old saw. Maybe keeping gays out of the USA military [or making life scary for them due to rabid people so they didn't sign up] meant somebody like Alan didn't pick up on the WTC attackers.

According to a PM I received, even the suggestion that Jesus Christ could possibly have been homosexual is considered a gross defamation. Saying that is a defamation automatically denigrates homosexuals. I gather the PM writer thinks there's a filter at heaven's door which keeps out those whom Jerry Falwell despises [such as those who are not heterosexual].

Who among you would cast the first stone at Jesus Christ if he was in fact homosexual? Better think twice about that one. Heck, he already got crucified by the Roman Empire ... I guess the Taleban would do it again. Not so long ago, plenty in the USA would have strung him up too. Even now, some would tie him to a fence and kill him. Oh, I know who else would do him in - Hitler sent homosexuals to the gas chambers. It's an unpleasant club you are running there Jerry. Yep, I guess God and Allah had it in for the WTC and the Great Satan because of homosexuals and all that stuff Jerry Falwell dislikes [most of which I dislike too, but live and let live - freedom and all that silly individualistic stuff].
