Interview With A Preacher Who
Thinks Superman Is A Homosexual
According to a Topeka, Kansas preacher, that is precisely what he is suggesting and wants to ban everything from Superman comic books to re-runs of that old B&W television series. I did not believe it until I contacted this nutcase myself. The preacher's name is Clay. Here is the beginning part of my conversation
with him:
Lewis: Hello, my name is Lewis from Bizarre News. I'm following up on a tip I received from a reader about your story. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?
Clay: It's not about the homosexual Superman thing again, is it?
Lewis: Well, yes. I would have called sooner but I was in Salt Lake City at the Olympics.
Clay: Okay, but I have given about 25 interviews over the last three weeks and I never heard of Bizarre News.
Lewis: We're small, but up and coming. What in the world made you think that Superman was gay? He started out as a cartoon!
Clay: What kind of MAN runs around in tights or leotards? I tell you there is a homosexual conspiracy trying to turn all of our young boys into homosexuals. It started with these cartoons or comic books and you see it openly on television.
Lewis: You mean that this is like the Communist Conspiracy of the Cold War?
Clay: Hell yes--but its worse. The President is all worried about this Al Qaida thing when he should be worrying that Hollywood and all of the creative community is trying to turn our boys into queers.
Lewis: Isn't that kind of harsh? Using the word "queer"
is derogatory.
Clay: Look, I am trying to save our youth and you speak to me about politically correct speech? It is not just Superman... look at Batman. What adult male has a teenage boy as his side kick? There is a pervasive problem going on and we better do something about it quickly, or this abomination will take over our country even more than it has.
