Archbishop Peter Jensen's Moral Dilemma
Archbishop Peter Jensen is the Anglican Archbishop of Sydney in Australia. His theology is of a particularly virulent, fundamentalist strain, which puts him in the same camp as Nigeria's loathsome Archbishop Peter Akinola. In fact, they are personal friends. Archbishop Jensen is a prominent advocate of evangelical Christianity and, as such, has spoken out with some considerable venom and spite against such issues as the consecration of female bishops, stem cell research and gay rights. It would appear to be a case of "do as I say, not as I do" for Archbishop Jenson, however, because not long after his consecration in 2001, he "was accused of nepotism after appointing both his wife (Christine) and his brother (Phillip Jensen) to official positions in the Sydney diocese" (Wikipedia). So much for Archbishop Jensen's exemplary moral virtue!

Pickled Damien Hirst
I love modern art! Kandinsky, Rothko, Mondrian, Picasso, Chagall, et al. They are towering artistic geniuses of the modern era. They produced profoundly beautiful, inspirational paintings, for us all to love and cherish for ever. Alas, the same cannot be said for Damien Hirst's dead animals, hacked to pieces and floating in vats of formaldehyde. It's a cheap confidence trick at our expense. We only have ourselves to blame, for allowing our standards to be so shamelessly compromised.

Gay Show Tunes
No matter what the world throws at us, gay people somehow always manage to maintain their sense of humour.
Archbishop Peter Akinola's Fantasy
I chose this image as the header for my Kerrytoons blog. Archbishop Peter Akinola is a senior prelate within the Anglican Church. I find it absolutely inconceivable that a man in such an exalted position of trust within the worldwide Anglican communion could make such a hate-filled, bigoted remark. Millions of people look-up to Archbishop Akinola and accept blindly what he says as the word of God. It would be simple to dismiss him as an ignorant, mindless bigot, who is more to be pitied than blamed. Alas, however, nothing could be further from the truth. He has enormous influence within his community. I can't help but wonder how many gay-bashings and murders occurred as a direct result of Archbishop Akinola's words. My only consolation is that he will have to stand before his God one day.

The Closeted Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
This cartoon is a result of the notorious speech made by Iran's President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in which he claimed that there were no homosexuals in Iran.
The Content of Barack Obama's Character
I drew this cartoon at the time of the American elections in 2008. It was inspired by the famous words of Martin Luther King.
