The Fan, I know what I said. After all, I wrote it. The next post was explaining what I wrote. I called no one ignorant, I called the fact that people think the way they do about this subject ignorant.

I saw this online a while back and it will probably piss people off far more than I imagine but I am going to post it anyway.

DOES IT MATTER?
My father asked me if I am gay
I said, "Does it matter?"
He said, "No, not really."
I told him, "Yes."
He said, "Get out."

I guess it mattered.


My Boss asked if I'm gay.
I said, "Does it matter?"
He said, "No, not really."
I told him, "Yes."
He said, "You're fired."


I guess it mattered.


My friend asked me if I'm gay.
I asked, "Does it matter?"
He said, "No, not really."
I told him, "Yes."
He said, "Don't call me anymore."


I guess it mattered.


My lover asked me, "Do you love me?"
I said, "Does it matter?"
She said, "Yes."
I told her, "I love you."
She said, "Let me hold you in my arms."


For the first time in my life something mattered.


My God asked, "Do you love yourself?"
I said, "Does it matter?"
He said, "Yes."
I asked, "How can I love myself? I am gay."
He said, "That's the way I made you."
Nothing else really matters.

Say what you want to but it is not going to change my mind or the minds of anyone here about it. I'm posting my opinion, you don't have to think the way that I do about anything either.

To believe in god you could not believe in that last statement. To say god made homosexuals that way would mean god is unjust, how can his word condemn homosexuals but yet make them that way? I have no problem with homosexuals, I know many of them and are friends with them, but I do not believe they where born that way. Some may say science proves they are born that way, but it doesn't, there has been no substantial link between genetics and homosexuality. I don't care what they do, but it does make me mad when they ask for special rights. They try to say that their rights movement is just like the women and black rights movements of the past. Thats not even close to the truth, being black and being a woman define what you are, being gay defines what you do.
