How many homosexuals woke up this morning and said I think i WILL CHOOSE to be gay starting today. I think I will enjoy being ostracized, picked on, beat up and humiliated. Having people point fingers, make comments and make me feel less like a citizen in my own country sounds like a great day to me. Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes before judging them. I’m saying I don’t believe anyone chooses or picks to be gay. It isn’t an easy life. I don’t think anyone chooses to be straight, they just are. It’s who they are, it is in their makeup. Why does it matter to everyone so much who someone chooses to love behind closed doors? As long as no one is being hurt, and that includes hetero relationships, than let people live their life and pursue their won happiness. They aren’t here to make you happy. I don’t understand why it matters so much what someone’s sexual orientation is. Can someone answer that? What does it matter if your neighbor is gay? Why does it bother you?

Finally, consider the possibility that gay people were born that way and this means that if you believe in God then these people are God's creations too. On that judgment day do you really want to be there trying to justify your cruelty and inhumanity to another of God's creations.

It would be interesting to see what the world would be like if everyone stopped telling us what god wanted. If everyone stopped quoting god. When, and if he does exist and I dont think so, I sure think he has a lot of questions to answer starting with, Whats the Fucking point? In my opinion only two people died in this world not caused by "god" Ron Goldman, Nicole Brown Simpson.......OJ killed them.

Oh, now..for GODS sake...he was aquitted.
But why FOR THE LOVE OF GOD..did he do such a lousy job of stealing back his "memorabilia"

One thing's for sure. Like it or not, He love's you too! And you know He has a sense of humor too, cause you're still around. You (or anyone else for that matter) not believing in or "hating" God, doesn't chnage a thing. I've been on both side's of this "fence", on your side for most of my life as a matter of fact. Yes my belief's did change. Perfect?, Not by a long shot. One of these day's if you get within ear shot and you care to take up the conversation, well no problem.
Zummie, don't take this post as a declaration of me being a "homophobe", I'm not. But I do think it's more of a choice, with some more than other's perhap's. Oh and by the way not everyone has it so well when it come's to the "pecking order" in life either. Try having red hair, being alittle on the chubby side, and having the first name of Francis coming up! Now I didn't ask for any of that either, so I got an idea of what ridicule does. I made some changes along the way though I'm haven't been chubby since I was a kid (my doing), my hair doesn't have that nice red glow (what's left is mostly white now) and I have been know as Frank my entire post-child life. It would have been better if my folk's had named me Sue. One thing I did learn (although it took awhile to see it) is that your "true" friend's don't care what your hair color is, your weight or what your first name is. By the way, I did not name either of my son's Francis, that family curse stopped with me. What does that have to do with being gay? I don't know, just thought I would add it. Had a "gay" freind of mine that I've known for about 40 year's now, fishing with me yesterday. We both know where the other stand's, I was at the "coming out" party, and then "conversation" has never come up! Well maybe there is something to that "freindship" thing I talked about earlier after all. Frank
