Don't Cypriot Bishops have nothing better to do than watching interviews with pop stars?

I would rather George Michael return to the the Cypriot Church. And Yusuf Islam while we are at it.
But may Boy George receive his reward.

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more. A hasty quarrel kindles fire, and urgent strife sheds blood. If you blow on a spark, it will glow; if you spit on it, it will be put out; and both come out of your mouth

Maybe they were doing a deep and extensive study of 80's popular culture, so as to better minister to certain members of their flock.

We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts. We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage.

My question: Why would Boy George even want to own this icon in the first place? I don't know anything about his religious/spiritual practices, I concede.

I believe he said he was Catholic for a period or at least his family was.

It was a wonderful act of his. Let us pray for him.

He asked for no financial reward - fair play to him.
