Gay Exorcism??

I saw this online and I couldn't help but laugh a little bit. This video here has generated some controversy over a gay teen apparently undergoing some kind of casting out of his gay demons.

There are plenty of horror films about demons. I thought the demon in Creepers was a scary dude. Freddy Kruger could certainly wreak havoc once you fell asleep; not to mention little Damien in the Omen, the Evil Dead series...plus all the "new" demons that we saw in Constantine, Event Horizon, or Drag Me to Hell. But other than David Bowie in Labyrinth, none of these demons gave any indication that they might blow a guy on a coke bender in Atlantic City! Gay demons? Come on. Did we ever see Freddy saddle up at a gay bar and order a round of appletini's? No...no we didn't. It was simply impossible for him to hold a glass. Hell, he couldn't even pay the bartender without cutting that fool.

Did we ever accuse the zombies in Michael Jackson's Thriller video of being gay just because they could dance well? I can see that maybe being a viable claim if only one of them was dancing on a table while the others threw back shots of "purple hooters" and eventually took turns "tuggin'" on that demon (we've all been there). But the thought never crossed my mind.

Come on now church! As a man with religious convictions myself, I can say that I'm ashamed of this behavior. First of all, if you look at the video of the exorcism, they're not even doing it right; so let that be stated right out of the gate. You don't exorcise gay demons in a church. You do it at a monster truck rally while showing a Cinemax feature on the jumbo tron. Now now, I'm convinced these pentacostal do-gooders had the best of intentions. But gayness does not come from Satan or the demonic world. It comes from the Bravo network.

nuff said.
