Fear of the Homosexual

We were at 4H earlier this afternoon and learned about rockets… pretty cool stuff. Anyhow, while we’re outside waiting for the rockets to be set up for launch a few of the tweenagers were talking and one of the girls mentioned that blank, blank, and blank were gay. A young man that she was talking to went “ewww, where are you going and you need to stop going there.” It was mentioned that it was at *** (a local community college, and the men that were mentioned as being gay are part of the dance program there). I stepped in and said, “It’s not contagious, they can’t touch you and you’ll become gay. They aren’t bad people for being gay.” The young lady then mentioned that two of them had adopted and another young lady that was part of the conversation went… “Ewww”.

I was horrified! Just sick! The young lady who was doing most of the talking never made any negative comments about them, but the other two did. This group is made up of all homeschoolers and this view of homosexuals is LEARNED behavior. God loves homosexuals just as much as he loves anyone else! Homosexuality is a sin (EDIT: I NO LONGER THINK THIS!) and so is lying, cheating, stealing, killing, gluttony, etc… Where did they lose their humanity? They are just like heterosexuals… they love, feel pain, breathe, bleed, grow old, etc…

Really, why are these God fearing parents teaching their kids to hate? Why is there such a fear of homosexuals? I don’t get it! I really don’t!
