- Desmond Tutu has currently (2015) spent long periods in hospital with repeated infections. We wish him well.
- Desmond Tutu is an old South African guy who really does exist. How could he not? His name is Desmond Tutu! You can't make that stuff up. Mr. Tutu is famous for being a rabble-rousing priest (Anglican, not One True Church), who enjoys winning "Peace Prizes" as a way of flaunting his open endorsement of racial equality, condom use, and homosinuality. Way to go, there, Toots! Why not just advocate abortion while you're at it and run the arrow all the way through the sweet little heart of The Baby Jesus?
