Wouldn't that be like saying I have no issue with child molestors; I take issue with child molestation?

I take issue with BOTH.

Standing for our beliefs and opinions makes us who we are.... I am open and honest about my beliefs and will not be untrue to myself for anyone.. my open candidness has gotten me into messes before, but I can go to sleep at night knowing I am true to who I am and what I believe.

We have a difference in opionions about certain things, but thats not to say I dont consider John to be my friend AND A GOOD one at that, and he always will be!

My thoughts are on this is whoever and whatever you are in your life is your choice as long as you aren't a criminal! Jonathon it took alot of courage to do what you did here - you are and will always be my friend. I became friends with you because we have a common interest weather!

I am not a great debater and usually just post what I feel and this is one time I want to show a friend that he is MY Friend.

Thanks Stephanie and Bron..VB I choose to come out here because..Like I said I feel like we are all family and I wanted to be honest and to be able to reply when I feel like need to..like I said some people will never understand and by me coming out..it wasn't pushing it in your face..it was being true to myself..If you have a problem with that then sorry!! :wink: VB wrote <<<<< It is of no consequence to me one way or the other until "you" try to push it off on me or ask for specieal dispensation due to your sexual orientation. I guess the best way to say how I feel is that I have never understood why SOME have to let others publicly know what their sexual orientation is(and I am not saying you should not have "come out" here)by the way they act in public. >>>>>>>>..more misconception..why would I want special privledges?? I just want the same rights as you have..nothing more nothing less :roll: As I said I think many people have a misconception of what gay people are like..you all know me and like me..hopefully still do :lol: :lol: My point is if I told everyone in the beginning they might not have liked me..before they got to know me..I am just trying to say don't judge the many by the actions of a few..plain and simple... :wink:

I agree, Johnathon.

I also wasn't trying to push my beliefs on anyone and I hope I didn't sound like I was.

But I sure as heck wasn't going to sit back and let someone else make generalizations (not saying they were pushing their beliefs either) about people like me without me putting in my two cents worth.

If coming out here bothered some of you...sorry. But I couldn't very well lend credibility to my side of the situation without doing so.

That's the truest statement I've ever read on an internet forum. I was your friend Johnathan, and am still your friend -- because you are kind, courteous, and have always had a kind word when I needed it. :)

Duck - I'm certainly not offended in anyway! I'm glad I just got to know both you and Jonathan alittle better today! :D Sometimes you do need to speak up and let your feelings and thoughts be known!

Jonathan - I keep screwing up the spelling of your name. Is it Jonathan or Johnathan? :?
