Is the English prof gay? Doesn't say. Homosexuals are always figuring out
some historical figure was gay. The Polish composer Chopin has been claimed
to be gay, even though he lived with a woman for many years. Why? Well, his
music sounds "gay" or something to that effect. Nicola Tesla has also been
claimed by some to be gay, though a gay scientist who knew him is known to
have said that he was not. Many men and women who were creative did not
marry because they were not attracted to the opposite sex, but rather
because the circumstances of their lives prevented them from taking on the
responsabilities of marriage. Homosexuals, many of whom seemingly cannot
understand the choice of some to forgo sexual pleasures, interpret this as
proving that they were homosexuals. Robin Hood was apparently a man who
fought along with others a guarilla war against a tyranical government.
Whether or not he and his compatriots were homosexual is a ridiculous
question which is totally unprovable almost a thousand years later. The fact
that some English prof has attempted to draw such a conclussion from such
scanty evidence as might be available only shows that he has some agenda to
which he has more loyalty than to Truth.
