Mega-church, mega-douche

Mega-church pastor Rick Warren recently appeared on Piers Morgan Tonight and reinforced many queers’ opinion that he is a mega-douche.

As if watching the uncharismatic Morgan isn’t cringe-inducing enough, Warren says he thinks the jury is still out on whether being gay is genetic.

“It wouldn’t bother me if a gay gene was found,” he said. “Here’s what we know about life: I have all kinds of natural feelings in my life and it doesn’t necessarily mean I should act on every feeling. Sometimes I get angry and I feel like punching a guy in the nose. It doesn’t mean I act on it.”

I don’t condone violence, but I’m sure there are some queers who would like to send a punch your way, Mr Warren. If said queers are into bears, perhaps even a donkey punch.
