She Didn't Teach You Enough

Quote From: jonesy385

Are you NUTS???  "Living the homosexual lifestyle"???  THE MAN IS GAY.  And the thing that hurt you the most is that he lied to you about taking it up the you know what?  And then you get all Bible on us... No wonder your son is suffering so much.  If you were not so ultra Bible, and all about the "sinners" your son would not view being Gay as anything wrong...But then again...If your husband didn't grow up in a closeted Bible thumping house, he probably would not have been in the closet and gotten married to you, and had kids and messed up so many people, including himself, just so that he could TRY to hide the fact that the Bible types would view him as a SINNER.  OOooohhhh...I am SO GLAD sometimes, that I grew up in Greenwich Village, here, right by the Stonewall, where the Gay Rights movement started when I was about 10 years old.  When I was a kid, I saw men walking down the street holding hands and kissing in the 60's, and I saw women doing that to eachother too, and my parents told me there was nothing unusual or wrong with that.  My mother told me, when I was maybe 4 years old, "sometimes men love men, and sometimes women love women, and sometimes men love women, and it's all the same...It's just LOVE."  And my family was not into all that repressive Bible "SIN" stuff.  Nothing is a "sin" if it makes you feel happy and good.  The SIN comes when you have to HIDE YOUR REAL SELF to live up to some IMAGE and end up hurting people, just so they won't call you a SINNER. 

It is great that your mother taught you to respect gays and lesbians.  How about some respect for those who disagree with you?  Being hateful toward someone because they are christian is no different than being hateful because they are gay.  It is still hateful. 

This woman was married to a man who lied to her and left her for another man.  Who are you to judge her pain?  How do you know what she has been through?

So, by your logic, if it makes me feel happy and good to run over cats, it's okay? Ridiculous? Yes. But, then, so is your statement. The 'if it feels good, do it" philosophy didn't work in the 60's and doesn't work now.
