The Importance Of Allies

Inspired by a photo my sister sent me this morning of she and her husband wearing tee-shirts in support of the LGBT Community, I just thought I'd share some thoughts on the importance of allies in this fight against bigotry and intolerance. This is not just about LGBT people fighting for Equality, it's about every decent human being out there lending their face, name and voice to the fight against the Inequalities that still exist in our world.

Everyone knows at least one gay person. Everyone is related to at least one gay person. The time has come to put bigotry aside and stand strong and fight for Equality, and demand world free from senseless hateful bigotry and intolerance.

Is your face too big in the LGBT movement to hear what the Lord is telling you through me? Do you have a willingness to know the truth of God concerning homosexuality? Who is your Pastor? Maybe I can speak with that person. If your Pastor supports your sinful lifestyle and promotion of the same then I will pray for that person also. But it gets back to the basic question. Is your face too big in the LGBT movement to hear what the Lord is telling you through me? I pray not.

@whatthingssoever As you are spouting unintelligent, hateful bigotry, not anything resembling the message attributed to Christ, I'm doin what any sane, rational and compassionate person would do: I'm ignoring you.

You're going to have to contact the United Church of Canada. There are millions of Christians in other denominations that fully love, support and promote understanding of the LGBT Community.

Take it up with them, Bigot.

People like you are what is wrong with the world. Bigot.

I think bigots and straight people hate on us gays because their jealous and they wish they could be like us, more open minded and free. The LGBT community is here to stay, we won't go away and if you haters do like it, go spray your hate away.

Just remembered this video and watched again. Dunno why I never left a comment before, but I love this video. I hope I will have some allies to stand with me when I am out to the world.

@whatthingssoever

your beliefs are pure mythology. something is only a sin if it hurts someone else. two gay people loving each other doesn't hurt, it helps and enhances.

so unless you have some proof that your christian religion is true, keep your mouth shut... no one, including any god, wants to hear your bigotry.

@whatthingssoever What The Bible Really Says About Homosexuality By Danial A. Helminiak Ph.d. You shoudl read it and educate yourself before spewing hateful propaganda. God loves all His children gay, straight, black, white, polkadotted etc... JUST THE WAY HE MADE THEM.

@whatthingssoever

Shut the fuck up. You don't even deserve a chance to speak. Your comments are the same shit every other Christian fanatic spouts as the gays, social liberals, etc. I don't like what gays do, but who the hell am (or you for that matter) I to tell them what they can't do as long as they don't interfere with my (our) personal life?

Don't answer it, it's rhetorical. I already know how you will answer you lunatic

@whatthingssoever

You need to find the TRUE God and Jesus!

I was raised as a Christian. I was also raised by parents that created me, loved me, raised me to be a good human being and supported me even after I told them I was Gay. I was made to realize by them that "we love you and never forget that God created you as you are because we wanted you". That was 30 years ago and God STILL LOVES ME!!!!!
