Now nobody can figure out if Mark Foley was a pedophile
August 30, 2007
Mark Foley can thank William “Bank of Freezer” Jefferson (D-LA) for the fact that law enforcement agents won’t be searching his Congressional computer for any lewd messages sent to former pages.
Foley is using the same Separation of Powers argument that Jefferson employed to have the Feds raid on his Congressional office declared unconstitutional. The House Office of the Chief Administrative Officer has assured us, however, that they’ve searched all of Foley’s email traffic and they found NO GRAPHIC IMAGES….Woo. That’s a relief. But…um…didn’t he prefer to use Instant Messenger? Yeah whatever. He’s in Scientologist Alcohol Rehab, so we shouldn’t pick on him so much, especially now with Larry Craig to kick around.
The Original Michelangelo Code (With FOOTNOTES!)
August 28, 2007
Something leads me to believe that sooner or later, someone is going to want to see my footnotes (and this a blog, mind you!), so I’ve posted the entire text (with citations) that I use in the film, here below:
Text of the Michelangelo Code as read in the December 1, 2006 YouTube posting
We were in Rome back in August, and went to the Vatican, and made the long snaking route through the museum to the Sistine Chapel. So we’re looking up at the ceiling, and I’m listening to the audioguide: this is God separating light from darkness, and this is God creating the Sun and the Moon…Creating the Sun and the Moon. And then I’m looking around at the rest of the ceiling. [ignudi] that’s right, Michelangelo was supposed to be Gay. In fact, he’s really gay. In fact…I don’t know if you’ve been to the Vatican Museum, but it’s basically some rooms by Raphael, the Sistine Chapel, and then acres of naked Classical sculpture. And I’m like, yeah, those Classicals they were kinda gay too. And, you know, the one actually inspired the other. The Popes started the cult of digging up statuary from antiquity, and basically began art collecting in its modern sense. And it was this cult for all things classical that fueled the Renaissances obsession with the human body. So I’m thinking…if the elite of Greece and Rome were gay, and Michelangelo was gay, then where were all the gay men in the intervening 1200 years. I mean where did all the gay men go when the Classical world collapsed?
Like a good Phd student I acknowledge the need for theoretical underpinnings to what I’m saying, so here it is:
The Michelangelo Code is a theoretical proposal which holds as its core concept that the Roman Catholic Church’s policy of celibacy has instead produced a clergy that is largely homosexual. I suggest that the clergy has, throughout history, been of a majority SSA (Same-Sex Attraction) orientation, with a minority of them being oriented towards OSA (Opposite Sex Attraction). Furthermore, the powerful institutions of the Church: the monasteries, the universities, the episcopal sees, and the Vatican itself, have, more often than not, been under the control of a clergy with an SSA orientation.

How YouTube exposed a vast Roman Catholic conspiracy
August 21, 2007
The basic premise of the Michelangelo Code was a thought that I’d had rolling around my head ever since the scandals of 2002 broke. In discussing that crisis with my Mother, I would ask her rhetorically, “Mom, if you were gay in the Middle Ages…I mean…where would you hide?” That thought evolved in to its current form during a trip to Rome in August 2006, and shortly thereafter, I delivered my earth-shattering power-point presentation to the Budapest Bardroom. And finally, on December 1, 2006, I launched my theory on an unsuspecting world through the insidious vehicle of YouTube. So here’s the original one that started it all.
