<blockquote><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let&#8217;s take bets on whether or not the Radical Left Mainline Bishops will speak out against this depiction of Christ as vociferously and loudly as they did against those depictions of Mohammed last year.Â  My money is on &#8220;NO they won&#8217;t,&#8221; &#8211; in the name of &#8220;<em>full inclusion&#8221; </em>of course- especially the Episcopal Bishops who are busy thumbing their nose at the Worldwide Anglican Communion this week in support of church sanctioned homosexuality.</strong></font></p>

<p><strong><font color="#000000"><strong>Homosexuals Mock &#8216;Last Supper&#8217; With Sex-Toys Twist<br />
</strong>By Susan Jones<br />
CNSNews.com Senior Editor<br />
September 25, 2007</font><font color="#0000ff"> </font><font color="#000000">(CNSNews.com)</font><font color="#000000"> &#8211; </font></strong></p>
<p></font><font color="#000000">Organizers of San Francisco&#8217;s Folsom Street Fair &#8212; sponsored by Miller Brewing Co. &#8212; have portrayed Christ and his disciples as half-naked homosexual sadomasochists in the event&#8217;s promotional advertisement, and the conservative group Concerned Women for America is complaining about the hypocrisy of it.</font> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cnsnews.com/cns/photo/2007/092507FolosomFull.jpg" title="http://www.cnsnews.com/cns/photo/2007/092507FolosomFull.jpg"></a><font color="#000000">&#8220;The bread and wine representing Christ&#8217;s broken body and lifegiving blood are replaced with sadomasochistic sex toys in this twisted version of Da Vinci&#8217;s The Last Supper,&#8221; CWA said on its Web site.</font><font color="#000000">&#8220;&#8216;Gay&#8217; activists disingenuously call Christians &#8216;haters&#8217; and &#8216;homophobes&#8217; for honoring the Bible, but then lash out in this hateful manner toward the very people they accuse,&#8221; said said Matt Barber, CWA&#8217;s policy director for cultural issues.&#8221;In their version of The Last Supper, Christ, Who gave His life for our sins, is despicably replaced by sin itself as the object of worship.&#8221;</font>CWA is calling on California politicians &#8212; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sens. Feinstein and Boxer among them &#8212; to &#8220;publicly condemn this unprovoked attack against Christ and His followers.</p>
<p>&#8220;We further challenge the media to cover this affront to Christianity with the same vigor as recent stories about cartoon depictions of Mohammed and other items offensive to the Muslim community,&#8221; CWA said.</p>
<p>The Folsom Street Fair describes itself as &#8220;the world&#8217;s largest leather event.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We hope to see the fairgrounds filled with people in their most outrageous leather/rubber/fetish attire enjoying the worlds largest and best loved Leather fair,&#8221; the Web site says.</p>
<p>Concerned Women for America called it &#8220;shocking and offensive&#8221; that California taxpayers are forced to foot part of the bill for the Folsom Street Fair. The City of San Francisco sanctions the event by shutting down several city blocks and providing police for security.</p>
<p>The Folsom Street Fair Web site says young people are welcome: &#8220;While we don&#8217;t have any age restrictions at the gates we do inform attendees of the adult oriented nature of our events.&#8221; The fair organizers say beer and liquor age restrictions are strictly enforced.<span id="more-94"></span></p>
