It seems as if the church has come to the conclusion that being gay is not against God. At least that is what we can infer from the new decision. But there is a catch. Details after the jump.

The Atlantic Wire reports that the man who started the Facebook gay-kiss deletion controversy, Richard Metzger is not satisfied with the response from Facebook. Metzger says:
"It's just generic PR speak that doesn't even refer to a gay kiss," he says. "The real problem here is certainly not that Facebook is a homophobic company. It's that their terrible corporate policy on censorship needs to stop siding with the idiots, the complainers and the least-enlightened and evolved amongst us."
Weigh in, do you think that Facebook's response wasn't good enough?

Tags: internet, youtube, hotties, porn stars, reese rideout, videos, primal instinct, chip tanner, gener equality, double standard Whenever people gyrate for a cause we tend to look the other way -- unless those people are Chip Tanner and Reese Rideout, porn-stars, gymnasts, strippers and now, newly-christened gender equality activists. Not that we noticed or anything, but YouTube takes part in the double-standard of man skin vs. woman skin that has plagued American media for decades. Having had enough of their g-rated but carnal videos deleted from YouTube while similar videos depicting women in states of undress remain live, the two gay porn favorites have vowed to continue (what they call) dancing until the evil double-sided standard is eviscerated and equality achieved.
