"It's a sad day when Cuba is significantly more progressive on a human rights issue than Puerto Rico."
Cuba doesn't have the divisive protestants diligently working to keep the people at odds with one another, while it fleeces them in the name of religion.

You got that right, and that actually applies to the U.S. as well.

People have always been quick to point the finger at the church and it heinous behavior, but the one thing that the church has practiced, to the benefit of the people is flagrant hypocrisy. As long as it got its cut it was willing to look the other way, especially in Latin America. It saw that riding rough-shod would produce a backlash; like it saw in Mexico. So it spewed doctrine and looked the other way.
In contrast, the protestant cults, like their Anglo tent preachers have wanted nothing but power & money, yet its only by-product is guilt. It has preyed on the weak and ignorant, disguised as some "guiding light".
These quacks brings nothing to the Latino table.
The social reforms that are so necessary throughout Latin America won't happen as long as the people continue to give those charlatans power.
Puerto Rican society is under siege from these goons, so it shouldn't come as a surprise if Cuba tries to make amends to the gay community. Uruguay is doing it, and it's gaining momentum elsewhere; too bad that the people of Puerto Rico have to bend yet again to foreign meddlers. Divide and conquer.
