OUR BACKGROUND As Sisters and Brothers of The Order of Perpetual Indulgence Sydney, we ever strive to uphold our vows to promulgate universal joy and to expiate stigmatic guilt, pledging our loyalty to public service, social activism and spiritual enlightenment. Who are we? We are an order of Sydney based gay male nuns and lesbian monks in Gay, Lesbian and other communities supporting people's natural right to live and love whomever they wish, in the way that is natural for them. We work towards a world where loving someone of the same sex is not a crime, nor is it a reason for shame. We
wear antiquated, outdated religious habits which parody the antiquated,
outdated views We
also use "Gay Male Nuns" and "Lesbian Monks" in
our terminology,
We
exist because there is bigotry and hatred in the hearts and minds of
people The
brave youth that screams "faggot" from
a passing car, the corporate manager that refuses These
are the types of reasons we exist. These are the progenitors that gave
us birth. It
is hate, fear and ignorance that keeps us here Some
people think that we hate Christians ... not so We
will gladly and joyfully dissolve when religious - and therefore societal
- persecution is a mere and unfortunate memory. Such
a wonderful day it will be, that when instead of selectively using It will happen, and to that end, we will continue to put ourselves at risk for The Greater Good.
Every member of our House is guided and bound in their actions by our Four Tenets . |
