every one sins and most houses probably have a few skeletons, the difference is, some will be going home to be with God, some will not. . You have to accept and believe . . .

But a lot of things are considered sins...
Like living together, sex outside of marriage, even using birth control of any kind, depending on your religious beliefs. Yet all grocery stores carry magazines and tabloids that report on celebrities and other people doing those things and more, and books (fiction and nonfiction) with that kind of thing. Why are those books and magazines with hetero sins any different from the ones with homosexuality? Isn't sin, sin? And it's everywhere, so how far do you want to take your boycott? I really do respect your opinion and your right to it. I just don't quite understand it.
I don't understand why some people seem to have such a seething *hatred* of homosexuals. I mean, gay people are just people, like anybody else. Some good, some bad. I don't want to know what they do in the privacy of their own home, but I don't want to know what hetero people do in the privacy of their own home, either! Either way, as long as it's two consenting adults, why would I care? It's none of my business.
BTW, I just saw Brokeback Mountain on HBO for the first time the other night. I thought it was heartbreaking. To think that two people who love each other so much could never really be together. How is that okay? (Yes, I know it was fiction, but it happens/has happened in reality.) I just think that's so incredibly sad. Don't we need more love in this world?
Okay, off my soapbox!
