I am not religious exactly because of this reason....
Moving from Europe to Tulsa OK isnt always easy.....European Churches seem more social and not as ignorant open to everyone...not in Oklahoma.... I might have long blonde hair and blue eyes but I dont fit inn either....
your comment destroys itself.... is that intentional. is god forgiving? does god judge his creations? whether you are gay or not, who does it hurt? see god is said to be forgiving am I right, well then if homosxuality is bad, it is a sin that does no harm, so he would undoubtedly forgive it if confronted right? expecially given that most gays like myself do not chose to be so, I indeed envy the straight man. but I find no attraction to the opposite sex, but I can at least manage a friendship.
To me it just seems that most people are using the principles of the Bible in order to achieve an identity. Because it comes off as "Oh he/she's a just, moral person! YAY!" And anybody who goes against the church and the laws of God is a spawn of Satan! AHH!!!
It just seems like assumption to me.
There's a difference between Religiosity and Christianity.
There is no GOOD that comes out of saying Gay people or ANYBODY is going to hell.
It's becoming apparent that people's inner pain is being improperly expressed, so far that people are using God and the Bible.
Do you really feel ANY better by telling ANYBODY that they're going to face eternal damnation?
How about teaching the "abominations" about Jesus' teachings for a change? Isn't THAT the message of CHRISTianity? To know and learn the things he taught!
The anti-gay tide is turning.Only a few years ago, 2/3 of American voters joined the homophobic right wing in supporting a Constitutional Amendment to ban gay marriage. Today that support has dwindled to 50/50. By November, when Californians get to vost on this issue, the haters may actulally be in a minority (like they already were in Arizona!)
It's a no brainer for which you need no Bible to recognize equality as right. You need a brainwash and a Bible to convince people equality is wrong.
This looks like exactly what I am looking for, something that gives an idea about the lives of gays in Oklahoma, growing up and obstacles they face. Thanks!
For all the Christians who AREN'T like this. Who don't judge but still go, "why does everyone hate us and label us as close minded rightests?" This is why.
I came across this looking at different "Jesus Camp" video's and it looks like a really well done dcoumentary about a very true "battle" going on here in the Bible belt. My heart goes out to those who have to suffer from religious fanatiacs. Everyone who is compassionate and tolerant needs to stand up and fight. It's just sad people are still having to fight this in the 21st century.
Thank you for This. It is SO TRUE. It is an honor that this movie exits. To validate what WE go through as Rural Gays and Lesbians. Be Kind, Be Compassionate.

Religion is a detriment to a free and progressive society that embraces ignorance.
