In
a change of heart, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson get married in
San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- In a move that has shocked the entire God-fearing
nation today, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson decided to tie the
knot in a short, but very sweet, same-sex marriage ceremony at
San Francisco City Hall. The ceremony was performed by Mayor Gavin
Newsom, minutes after he was deputized. Witnesses say many tears
were shed, but these were tears of happiness as love and respect
seemed to exude from the happy grooms.
The couple, who decided they would use Mr. Robertson's last
name, had been thinking of pursuing this for some time, but since
current laws forbade such a thing, their love had to be put on
hold. After witnessing history in the making this weekend, they
decide to make their bond more permanent and booked a flight to
the Bay Area.
Mr. Falwell took the time to apologize for the insensitivity
he has shown towards gays in the past, which includes blaming
gays and lesbians for the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"I've said and done many things in the past that have hurt
many. I once believed that gay unions were an aberration to the
sanctity of marriage. But gazing into those baby blues of Pat's
filled my heart with warmth and gave me tingles all over my body.
These feelings gave me the strength to I admit I was wrong."
The couple decided to rush to San Francisco, as the courts were
supposed to make a ruling on the matter that day. The ceremony
will be broadcast this Friday on the 700 Club with special guest
Martha Stewart, who will show the two lovebirds how to make lovely
Thank You cards out of prison cigarette cartons, toilet paper
and a dash of love.
Michael Damen, a faithful fan of the 700 Club had this to say,
"I'm so confused... so very confused." Mr. Damen then
proceeded to bang his head into his 700 Club Edition Bible screaming,
“Why God” over and over again.
The Robertsons have announced honeymoon plans for Puerto Vallarta
and giggled when the question of consummating their marriage came
up.
"We won't force anything. We'll just let it happen,"
said Jerry, as he gazed into Pat's eyes, while playfully patting
him on the rear.
A judge in the case agreed to order the city to either "cease
and desist" issuing the disputed licenses or to come back
to court on March 29 and explain why they haven't, a ruling that
attorneys for both sides claimed as a victory.
No matter who the ruling was a favor of, there were at least
two winners today. Mr. and Mr. Pat Robertson will forever hold
this day as the day that two became one.
