Every Christian who has issues with homo***uality should attend an
affirming, or GLBT-friendly, church. When one gets to know these
wonderful (often better people than straights) folks he or she would
be hard pressed to maintain their negative opinions of gays and
lesbians.

To anyone who still thinks being gay is a choice: do you honestly
think someone would voluntarily subject him or herself to potential
taunting, ostracizing, discrimination, verbal or physical violence,
even murder? It just doesn't make sense and when something doesn't
make sense it usually isn't true.
