Homosexuals are a race?
"Italian homosexual leaders are accusing Riccardo Di Segni, Rome's chief rabbi of "racism" for his stand defending the traditional family. Di Segni was speaking against proposed legislation that would create de facto civil unions for homosexual partners and cohabiting persons with equivalent rights to natural marriage.
Franco Grillini, a homosexual MP accused Rabbi Di Segni of "unacceptable anti-homosexual racism." Grillini is honorary chairman of top Italian gay rights' association Arcigay that is campaigning for the bill.
The rabbi is not the only religious leader to come under fire from homosexual activists in favour of civil unions. Last week Pope Benedict XVI expressed his solidarity with president of the Italian Bishops Conference, Angelo Bagnasco, who is under police protection after threats appeared scrawled on the walls of Genoa Cathedral. The archbishop received an anonymous envelope through the mail containing a bullet and a picture of the archbishop with a swastika carved into it.
