Quote of the Day: Evangelical AIDS Activist Kay Warren

“The evangelical church has pretty much had fingers in our ears, hands over our eyes and mouths shut completely. We’re not comfortable talking about sex in general and certainly not comfortable about talking about homosexuality-and you can’t talk about HIV without talking about both of those things.”

-Kay Warren, an evangelical AIDS activist and wife of megachurch pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren, quoted by the Associated Press. The couple hosted a national conference that coincided with World AIDS Day on Dec. 1 at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif.
