Jeremy sent me a link to this and, well, there are no words to explain this “ex-gay” music video — The Bible Says (God Hates a Fag), by Donnie Davies and Evening Service (hailing from south Houston). This is so campy it has to be a joke, but he plays it straight — so to speak.

“God hates a fag…Read your bible, and you’ll be sure — to enter heaven, there’s no backdoor. Righteous man, get on your knees, there lies no virtue in so-do-my. Lord you are my shield, stay me through the fight, shelter me from urges and help me see the light.”

Just precious. Oh, if you go to the Love God’s Way web site, you can learn about Pastor Donnie’s list of “Bands to watch out for” — that promote homosexuality, because popular music is “one of the most dangerous ways homosexuality invades family life.”

Off-limits artists include: The Spores, Scissor Sisters, Rufus Wainwright, Cole Porter, Eagles of Death Metal, Polyphonic Spree, The Faint, Interpol, The Doors, Phish, The Strokes, Sufjan Stevens, Morrissey, The Pet Shop Boys, Metallica, Judas Priest, The Secret Handshake.

How in the hell did Queen and The Village People get left off of this list?

3. Oh, no! Not Cole Porter! *gasp*
One of the greatest American songwriters of all time. Just try and make it through one week without hearing any snippets of a Cole Porter song anywhere.

6. No Accept, Sisqo, Ricky Martin but apparently Metallica is quite gay
I thought their guitarist was gay, but other than that, I don't recall any blatantly gay songs.

Unless "Nothing Else Matters" is not about accepting people who are different and talking things over and instead submitting to 'the gay'.

15. This is a joke, right?
Edited on Tue Jan-23-07 06:53 PM by d_b
This is the kind of stuff you'd expect to see at whitehouse.org.

From 2:47 to 2:58 is the funniest part of the video.

17. It turns out, "The Bible Says (God Hates a Fag)" may actually be a very elaborate satire after all
