" If there indeed is an infinite Other out there, our finite words can never explain or encapsulate the existence of the Divine. And, if this Divinity exisits, I believe He/She/It wants everyone to live to their fullest potential == whether gay, straight, bi, trans, or super-hyper spiritual. But for Heaven's sake, let's not live our lives at the expense of harming others. Life is too short and valuable. "

Beautifully stated, DGL.

Jason, I'm deeply moved by your story and I am so very sorry that organizaed religion made you doubt the beauty of your being. Despite being an Elder of my church, I often find myself thinking that I'm not a fan of organized religion - it so often gets in the way of spirituality.

Hi Laura and all who responded

Yes, I do know that the meeting was crazy - but, sitting in the front and counting votes, I was amazed at how focused the crowd really was.

Since then I have found myself embraced by the LGBT community in ways I never expected. I'm now part of the group planning Sunday's working meeting and see how many different perspectives are valued.

It is my greatest hope that many people from the Perpare to Prevail group (aka 2012) will be there on Sunday. Their concerns are important and valid - the 2010 Coalition needs to hear them. I believe that the work CAN be done in time for 2010 if we work hard enough.

Wonderful and moving, Jay.

But I say that the blame goes to those of us in the straight community, too. We can not be afraid to 'come out' as straight allies. Your interview with me on closet talk helped me to do that, thank you.

Great post Jay!

Not a little issue, and definitely not a persuadable "swing" voter, no matter what the commenter claimed!
