Cyrusjul, your whole post is spot on. I tried everything under the sun to treat these people compassionately, yet they could not get over their hatred for born again types.
Folks, if born agains have brought you so much grief, then perhaps when you do meet someone that doesn't fit the mold, perhaps you should thank them, instead of trying to berate them.
Uhhhhh... you completely missed the point of that post.
So what is your point? spell it out, without all the mumbo jumbo.
I will reposted again, see if you can get it this time.

My point is that the good gays are far less vocal than the bad gays. Perhaps if more good gays would reach out in friendship then peoples views would change.
Bashing people, cussing people, calling them fundy idiots does not win over people to their cause, atheists excepting of course.

Yes yes, I see how you changed it around, but what is the point you are trying to make? It looks even better in my favor after you posted that. Because I tried to be a decent person, and yet they berated me. I broke the stereotypical mode, and yet it was not enough for them, they still hated me.

The point is that you haven't done a good research on what all gays really think of you. Like me. I don't judge you if you don't preach me. So I guess I am one of those 'descent' gays you can't seem to find? So they are still out there, just do more research. The ones that you have probably met have probably been so attacked by bashing Christians, so they have issues. Maybe you need to keep reminding them that you are not like one of those Christians. Like I say I have many Christian friends. And know plenty of other gays that do as well. Some of those gays are Christians themselves!
