Back at Cornell, we always used to joke about the pink triangular stickers proclaiming “Safe Space” on the chaplains’ doors. Today, I came across what is officially the most terrifying Catholic Gay emblem I have ever seen.
This pteradactyl monstrosity can be found on the official website for the Diocese of Cleveland, here. From His Excellency The Most Reverend Anthony M. Pilla, founder of this legendary ministry, and former President of the USCCB:
Dear Friends,
Through the waters of Baptism God called each of us to be disciples of the Lord. We not only have a place in the Body of Christ, the Church, but all of us share in the mission of building up the Church and witnessing to God’s reign in our joys, struggles, and journey of life.
I have established the Gay and Lesbian Family Ministry to provide pastoral care for our homosexual brothers and sisters and their families in fidelity to the teachings of the Church.
It is my hope that this ministry can be an opportunity for healing and reconciliation.

I hadn’t known until recently that the pink triangle symbol was used by the Nazi’s to identify homosexuals — it was worn on an arm band similar to how the Jews were forced to wear a star of David.
Interesting how it has becomes an international symbol for sodomites.
I think it’s spelled with a “p” isn’t it?

Thanks, Hilary!
