An online push is under way to pressure the producers of "Sesame Street" into having Bert and Ernie get married.

More than 900 people have signed a petition about the pair of platonic puppets on Change.org as of early Wednesday.

"We are not asking that Sesame Street do anything crude or disrespectful," the petition reads. "It can be done in a tasteful way. Let us teach tolerance of those that are different."

Figures.
Since in many people's "dirty" minds today, a pair living together like that must be a couple anyway.

Gay Barbie?

 

[Crucified in Christ]

For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness....


I think Paul did a very good job of summing up what is happening in a story like this.

I'm beginning to understand why the Monks live ascetic lives. Satan truly is the prince of the air--he has invaded the airwaves of television, radio and Internet to bombard us with immoral practices. This also has led to many to accept immorality since they don't want to be labeled intollerant. geeeeeeee

NEW YORK – The question of whether "Sesame Street" puppets Bert and Ernie might get married - as thousands of online petitioners have urged - was answered with a definite no Thursday when their creators said they were just "best friends" who "do not have a sexual orientation."

More than 5,700 people have signed an online petition at Change.org urging the striped-shirt-wearing puppets, who sleep in the same room and whose sexuality has long been debated, be allowed to wed.
