A-pall-ing

I'm not Texas-bashing again but, literally, for Christ's sake.

From the Dallas Morning News:
An Arlington church volunteered to host a funeral Thursday, then reneged on the invitation when it became clear the dead man's homosexuality would be identified in the service.

Basically, the family of the deceased are members of this congregation, and the church offered to host the funeral for the decorated Navy veteran who died of heart disease--and then refused at the last minute because the deceased was gay.

"What would Jesus do?" indeed.


Updates from the Dallas Morning News, the Houston Chronicle, the Edge (Boston), and Towleroad.

And even more from Joe.My.God.
