why Amazon.Fail might not have been a glitch

same-sex marriage in the early Christian church (from [livejournal.com profile] triannamaxwell)

Have been catching up on my TV, and is it just me, or was it really creepy when Sylar shape-changed into his own mother so she could tell him the things he wanted to hear from her (esp. forgiveness for killing her)? And not in a spine-chilling way, more in a "this should be creepy but it's just off-putting" kind of way. I don't know why I still bother with this show, I really don't. It's so bad.

1: Honestly, I don't know what to think. I doubt we'll ever really know what happened.

2: I'd be curious to do more research into it. I do know that homosexuality wasn't always as actively reviled as it is now (and I don't just mean the Greeks). Unfortunately, queer history has a habit of being rewritten or "straight-washed" by later generations. There's actually going to be a guy talking about that at NLM's Queer History Month events.
