Child Porn Seized from 'Art' Show Comes From anti-Christian Elton John's Private Collection
By John-Henry Westen
LONDON, UK, September 26, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Popular homosexual musician Elton John, who regularly promotes homosexuality and has said he would ban Christianity, may be in hot water as police have seized one of his pieces of "art" on suspicion of breaching child pornography laws. According to media reports police seized the photographic image from an art gallery in Tyneside.
Apart from promoting homosexuality, John has expressed his contempt for Christianity. In an August 2006 interview Elton John said, "I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays. But there are so many Christian people I know who are gay and love their religion . . ."
John added that he would ban religion, speaking in context about Christianity. "From my point of view I would ban religion completely, even though there are some wonderful things about it. I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it, which I loved in Sunday school and I collected all the little stickers and put them in my book. But the reality is that organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate."
