Flamen Antonyus Subia says ....
"Antinous is the Spirit of Homosexuality... he is a person and a name that has been used to describe a feeling that glows within us, a unifying force that we all share in common. Homosexuality existed long before Antinous was born, but Antinous is the only person who was ever consecrated as a god for being a gay man. Antinous is the only person for whom temples and sacred statues were created to receive the devotion of gay men.
"Antinous represents a time when being gay was once considered a sacred thing, and now, as the world begins to change...Antinous deserves to be recognized as a crucial element in our ancient gay spirituality, because he represents so many beautiful, mysterious forces within us.
"And by opening our heart to Antinous, we can begin to unfold the beauty of gay spirituality within ourselves."
