I am shaking my head over this
article in the NYTimes today.
It seems like quite an egocentric notion to assert that all gay people should not marry and be celibate. As such, it reeks of 'love the sinner and hate the sin' crap. This particular belief distorts, warps and deforms all those who expound it and impose it on others.
I don't think the writer of the article hates herself. In fact, I get the sense that she thinks herself quite special. And that's the problem. She gets to be saved from being gay and gets rewarded for it too. Now isn't that a trip?
My belief? Real Love - divine or in the arms of our beloved- doesn't make us special with a capital S. It makes us human. A very different thing.
