Gay in an intolerant area..

[eastofeden]

2 of my friends are gay and moved to Oregon to escape the southeastern culture. During a conversation with her and her husband and a good friend of mine in her car while on vacation, she expressed her perspective that men cannot have loving relationships with one another, and only do physical things because they are desperate. She blamed drugs for an insanity induced "fetish" of attraction.. and said that she felt sorry for my friends for straying from god.

Charming! Speaking of religion and Atlanta...I know a very religious lady who lives in Atlanta who I think studied religion in college or maybe she has a degree in theology? (I forget the details) ..and she has successfully argued the Bible on a few of the debate sites we both belong to debunking any Biblical reference to homosexuality...she is an Episcopalian and openly advocates for gay priests...very cool lady.

I used to tell her that if I ever felt the need to become religious I would sign up for whatever it is she believes in:biggrin: Anyway...her name is Alicia and she has a cool book site if you like books at all..
