There was a time I was quite closed-minded regarding religion. I've changed a lot over the last year or so as I've learned more about accepting my sexuality, thus about accepting others. There is room for people of all faiths in my life and my heart. It's not up to us to try and tell people what they should believe--we have this thing called free will and free choice. We were made to (and have the right to) think for ourselves. We can choose to give up that right by joining some rigid church or some way-out-there cult but that intellectual independence is The Being's gift to us. I love people who believe and don't believe, people who believe like me or differently, and Scotty, I love Faeries, too!!
