Ken and Jeffro, thank you for your posts. I am with you on the religious point of view. Sometimes I think it would be better for me too if I could just stop trying to figure it all out and just do it too.
I've have a very diverse background of exposures (up front and personal) from Southern Baptist to Mennonite to Jewish.
Most of it doesn't make sense to me and it seems like bending the big old book (written so long ago!) to make it work. I don't buy it.
It's like religious people WANT to be afraid all the time.
There is a little park very close to me. Less than a quarter mile. I like to walk down there sometimes by myself. I mean it's just RIGHT OVER THERE.
I can't tell you how many times I've been cautioned by some of my Christian neighbors around here that it is a "gay hang out" and there is "no telling what I'll see"!
Huh?
I'm just now getting caught up on both of these threads.
Jeffro, your postings in the other thread and here too have touched me deeply.
Thank you for sharing all that.
Even when I thought I knew all about it...no I don't actually.
I hate this. I am so sorry.
