Pro ball player doesn't 'believe' in being gay

[kweerwolf]

Chicago White Sox player Carl Everett lashed out against gays and lesbians during an interview published in the July issue of Maxim.

While Everett told the magazine he has accepted gay teammates, he also said: "Gays being gay is wrong. Two women can't produce a baby, two men can't produce a baby, so it's not how it's supposed to be. ... I don't believe in gay marriages. I don't believe in being gay."

"Here's the thing about Carl, love him or hate him -- he's very honest and speaks his mind," Katie Kirby, a White Sox spokeswoman, told the PlanetOut Network. "His views do not reflect the organization, because as an organization we embrace all sorts of fans, all genders, all orientations."

She added that Everett, a designated hitter, has said he does not believe in dinosaurs because they weren't in the Bible.

Dang! Leave it to some dumb fundie jock to catch onto us. C'mon guys ... we gotta quit pretending we're gay. ... And no more hiding fake dinosaur bones for palentologists to find!

11. I was happy to see Johnny Damon

attack the homophobic comments by Boston radio hosts. I was upset with some of the other Red Sox comments about homosexuality, not particularly surprised by them since those were the same players dumb enough to thank God for letting them hit a home run. I'm an atheist but even if you believe in God don't you think he/she has better things to do with there time than worry about a baseball game.

3. I don't believe in being post menopausal.

Post menopausal being post menopausal is wrong. A man and post-menopausal woman can't produce a baby, so that's not how it's supposed to be. I don't believe in post menopausal marriages.

5. Oh! He doesn't believe in dinosaurs... ok.

"His views do not reflect the organization, because as an organization we embrace all sorts of"... dinosaurs. Like Carl.

9. Is anyone really surprised?

It seems every time that Carl Everett opens his mouth, something like this happens. What's bizarre about this is that he goes from ripping Jose Canseco to this. It's just really strange, but not so surprising. BTW, don't bother protesting or taking any kind of action against Everett, he will not give a shit. Or he'll throw firecrackers at you.

10. The bible had polygymous marriage too...

He made these comments in Maxim. What's a fundie doing giving interviews to Maxim?

[terrya]

12. I don't believe in major league baseball players.

I just don't. I refuse to believe in them.

See how easy being mindnumblingly stupid is?

[NMMNG]

13. Tell Carl to move his bigotted ass out of the US

He obviously can't believe in it since it wasn't mentioned in the Bible.

[Obamarama]

14. He should rememberwhat happened to Reggie White

ZZZZZZAP.
