Post Homeless LGBT Persons
not welcomed at the "House of Mercy" in Georgia. So heart-warming to see how radical Christians so closely follow their Lord's teachings. (Last time I checked, Jesus didn't say only help the poor if they're straight.)

I thought it was "poor and down trodden"... which... kinda makes the whole thing even worse, since they're stepping on people they should be helping...

Man... Jesus is gonna be ~pissed~

These people need to read the parable about the good Samaritan

Default Doublespeak
To me, it's doublespeak. House of Mercy is going against the thing they so boldly profess. No wonder a lot of TGLB people flee 'Christianity'.

I agree, Gennee, and that's exactly why I ~refuse~ to flee my Catholic Faith, so I can show them that I can still be me, and still follow the rules... I'm hoping ~someone~ up there notices, and coaxes the Magesterium towards a more compassionate understanding. =)

I hope so too., Victoria.
