I have come to a conclusion! Lesbian/Gayism is actually a mental disorder found in the part of the brain that makes up common sense. If the saying goes "People are born gay" then what does that sound like? Okay, it could be natural. Then again people are born with ADD and no one is saying that's natural. So should we be going around saying stuff like "Omg he's so ADD, run guys!" no! So should we be going around saying "Omg he's so Gay" no again. Should we be finding the problem with gay...

[chicraig6421]

@TheCaptan200 You say you have concluded Lesbian/Gayism (is gayism a new word I have not heard that 1 b4), and u have a right to ur opinions and conclusions. Just to let you know all the physiological assoc. have determined, based on science, that homosexuality is not a mental disorder, nor are homosexuals dis-ordered, or an abomination.

Ur logic if you were born heterosexual, why is being born homosexual different. And yes people are born ADD, and hermaphrodites as well.

[TheCaptan200]

...who smoke. If they want to kill them self's that's fine with me. But if it's someone who desperately needs help and not getting it, that's not fine with me. All I'm saying is that we should look at the big picture as if it were a disorder.

To all people who are Lesbian/Gay, I don't hate you and I'm not against you. All the bullying needs to stop, but I think you need help and please don’t feel bad about this comment and please don’t bash me for this comment.

@TheCaptan200 " All I'm saying is that we should look at the big picture as if it were a disorder."

That's what the medical/psychiatric community used to think, but they came to realize that the empirical evidence simply did not support that model. Your way of thinking was rejected by science decades ago. If you are still embracing that long-ago discredited idea, I encourage you to research the question and take an honest look at REAL science (not quacks like NARTH or Family Research Council)

[pvampire]

Being gay also brought me closer to God but it was a long bumpy ride getting to that point. I was so self hating till I hit 30 thinking everyone hated me even God. I finally came out when I found YouTube and heard stories like yours! It was such an inspiration that I fiannaly took that chance and came out. Everyone supported me much to my surprise lol

[EpicSoftworks]

no there is not.

[willnpc]

Ciao Bello!

Stefano(Steven) "Amico Mio" Grazie for making this wonderful contribution to a "Campaign" that is dear to the hearts of so many, Bobby Griffiths' (Prayers for Bobby) old lover/boyfriend "Blaine" here included! That you were raised in the "bosom" as it were of "Holy Mother Church" and possess a clear understanding of G-Ds' love for you, makes me wanna shout for joy! I'm so darn proud of you "Bello"!

Con L'Amore e Molti Baci! (With Love And Many Kisses)

As a straight christian, I very well respect you and I look at you as a human being and not an outcast. God bless, He loves you no matter who you are. "HE LOVES EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!" -Lady Gaga

[flebbinon1]

@100christman Also as a straight Christian I could not agree more!!! We are not all horrible hypocrites!!! Bless you guys! Maybe one day we can get past this stupidity and learn to love each other!

[suslol28]

Music? I love music too! Heh, what a coincidence. And I'm gay. True, I'm not in college but... still.

[casd29wr]

this is awesome, I live in Houston, I'm Catholic, && I'm gay.

[100christman]

@casd29wr Me too!!! minus the gay, but I still respect homosexuals. :)

[linkkid185]

Like everyone else has said, you are very well spoken and your words will brighten some of the darkest days for anyone who is bullied. Also, you're very beautiful! There, I had to say it :)

[fdjones1]

u so hot

[kickrocksscrub]

Dammmmmn, you're hot

[dudeguyrox]

you got bullied in elementary school? i knew i liked guys and that "i shouldn't" in 2nd Grade. But gay/bi wasnt really a concern until eighth grade

[sugarking99]

...made fun of for it? if u do ur wrong

[sugarking99]

@iwilltrolleveryone you r describing a homophobe not a homosexual! Its not a sin to be gay! God wouldnt create gays if it were a sin to be one. We r gay from birth wether we know since then or not. Ur the reason that ppl KILL themselves. Y dont u go tell a black man its a sin to be black cause thats equivalent to what ur saying (i have nothing agenst any race its just the first thing i thought of) we cant control who we r do u think we would all choose to be gay if we knew that we would be ma

[ColdOne1200]

[SUSEY64]

If God made everyone for a reason, don't you think he made gay people for a reason? Just something to think about for people who say you can't be both gay and religious

[phaseskeepmegoing]

[meganchowe]

This video is amazing, it's actually really helped me. Thankyou :) x

[ballucanb1]

Did they call you a fag for a reason, or were they just tagging you unfairly.

I hid very well, a little fat kid no one paid any attention to.

Small town for me, every one knew your business.

I'm not religious in the sense that I'm a church goer, but I do believe in god in my own way.

Good luck and I hope you are very successful in life you deserve it, the people who bullied you will get there rewards, in a totally different way.
