Gays and lesbians

April entry from last year on my myspace

I got a fowarded email that infuriated me today.It was from someone I have known most of my life. Someone who knows me better than most. It was about a gay man who had gotten beaten in her local bar. The part that made me furious, you may ask ( besides the beating?)? In the end of the email she typed " Funniest sh*t I ever read fu*ker deserved worse!" I almost dropped dead. How dare she? Has she forgotten that my uncle who is the family member I am closest to is not only gay but a gay rights activist? That I have marched in GLAAD parades? Or that in high school I beonged to GLAAD? ANy the friends of gay rights club? I think she has lost her mind . So I call her and asked what the hell was her problem . She said some of the most terrible things to me about gay and lesbians.How could I be friends with someone for over 20 years and never know her? She even went so far as to say that my uncle deserves the cance rhe is suffering with right now. Nevwer in my life has something more crushing been said to me, She said that even if he survives he he will go straight to hell with the rest of the deviants. My heart broke for her stupidty. How dare she? She knows nothing of his life or the life of any other gay person. This is not a life he chose nor did any otherr gay pperson. They were born that way. MAde by God. How dare you argue with his perfection. And do not quote the bible to me my friend . Judge not or yest ye be judges ring a bell to you? And lets not forget the bible was written by a king over 3000 years after ouyr saviour gave his life to save our souls so how much is his teachings and how much is what Constintine wanted ? I support every gay and lesbian person out there. They are Gods childrena and wonderful gifts to this world. I can not wait for the day that this simple minded country willl give them the same rights afforded to the rest of us. Being married to the person you love, being on each others medical insurnace, being able to visit the poperson you love if they are sick and in the hospital. Being looked down on for their lifestyle , not hte chopisces that they make that are bad. This person is no longer my friend nor that of any one else who I know who knows her if I can help it . She is ugly in the heart and has hatred for what she doesn't understand and that can not be tolerated in my book. I am mad and hurt and I just don't understand how anyone can hated millions of people because of how they were born? They desrve respect and love, and support. To alll thoose who read this who are gay I suport you in every dession you make and every thought you have. I stand proud to know you and proud of what you do.You are wonderful and brave . You should be able to get married or not or do whatever you please without anyone looking at you poorly , and on that day I will be proud untill then it is something I will pray for.

My rambaling fury is over now , but I dn't fell better I am still mad but I got it off my chest
