Islam, Christianity and Judaism, Together, At Last

You can't make this shit up. I pity the fool who tries to make a living as a satirist in times like these.

Today's slice of mind-boggling stupidity arises out of Jerusalem. Gay people from around the world have scheduled a festival to celebrate diversity and tolerance. Inspired by this celebration of humanity, the faith world is finally united. I swear on a stack of Bibles and Korans, I am not making up this quotation from the New York Times: "Now major leaders of the three faiths - Christianity, Judaism and Islam - are making a rare show of unity to try to stop the festival. They say the event would desecrate the city and convey the erroneous impression that homosexuality is acceptable."

(To be fair, the article also reports that other representatives of the faith community are supporting the festival. But, still . . . )
