耶稣是个同性恋?

"I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems," John said in an interview posted on the website of US celebrity news magazine Parade.

约翰接受采访时说：“我觉得耶稣是一位非常具有同情心的，智慧超常的同性恋，他很能理解人类遇到的难题。”这次采访被上传到美国明星资讯杂志《旅行》的网站上。

"On the cross, he forgave the people who crucified him. Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving. I don\'t know what makes people so cruel. Try being a gay woman in the Middle East -- you\'re as good as dead," said John, who is gay.

身为同性恋的约翰说：“耶稣在十字架上受刑前，原谅了处死他的人。他想让我们具有爱心和宽恕精神。我不知道是什么让人们如此残忍。如果你想在中东尝试做一名女同性恋，那简直生不如死。”

The Catholic League, the largest US Catholic rights group, condemned the comments.

美国最大的天主教权利组织天主教联盟驳斥了上述言论。

"Jesus was certainly compassionate, but to say he was \'super-intelligent\' is to compare the son of God to a successful game-show contestant," league president Bill Donohue said in a statement.

联盟主席比尔多诺休在一份声明中说：“耶稣当然很具有同情心，但称他‘智慧超常’无异于将上帝之子比作一名成功的电视比赛选手。”

"More seriously, to call Jesus a homosexual is to label him a sexual deviant. But what else would we expect from a man who previously said, \'From my point of view, I would ban religion completely\'?"

“更严重的是，说耶稣是同性恋就等于说他是个性变态。但约翰还曾说过‘依我看宗教应该完全被禁止’这样的话，我们还能指望他说出什么好话么？”
