Surprise: The Catholic League Hates David Bowie


May 9, 2013 | Andy Cush

Catholic League president Bill Donahue is putting on his art critic hat once again. The man who once made a really shitty parody of Andres Serrano’s Piss Christ is now taking aim at David Bowie, whose latest music video featured a whole ton of not-very-nice Christian imagery.

Donahue calls Bowie a “switch-hitting, bisexual, senior citizen from London” right off the bat in his blogged response to the video, then proceeds to seethe about every one of the clip’s images and hope that Bowie might see the light yet. He even calls Roman Catholicism, and I quote, “the Cadillac of all religions.”

Worth noting that this is not the first time Bowie has dabbled in Jesusy stuff. If you haven’t seen it yet, watch “The Next Day” clip below.
