^^^ This is essentially what I wanted to respond with, but mlassoff did it far more succinctly and tactfully than I would or could have.

I also have friends that are gay and we get along just fine.. they have respect for my belief and I stand on what I believe. I also have a deep love for gays who are trapped in the lifestyle..

I don't believe you, considering some of the venomous posts you have made on C-D.
Not for a second.

Comments against this subject seem more like bullying every time I read them. Does he have to be homosexual? Is that a law, and if he claims to be straight, is that cause for ridicule and insults? Why cant someone have the right to chose heterosexuality with as much liberty as the alternative?

I call this all baloney. Do you know any gays that are not brainwashed by the church?

You have no clue what god has intended for anyone.. God could be Bi for all we know or quite possibly just doesn't exist in the manner that you or I or anyone can comprehend.

Is there also such a case for bitter social conservatism?
