I don't know how I'd react, and don't wish to have the opportunity to find out.
The truth is, I love my kids more that I could explain, and I'd try to tackle a train to help them. If one of them came to me with this, I'd probably be disappointed and likely concerned. I'd be concerned because of the social stigma, dangers of the lifestyle in which they may become involved (drugs, increased suicide rates, increased sexual diseases), but I can't imagine it would affect the way I care for them. On the other note, I wouldn't think I could be around it, wouldn't support it as healthy, but I'd try not to make their life any tougher than it is. I also think for some reason, I'd be hit harder by the news if it were a son than a daughter. I don't know why people are ghey, but I know some just are. I know enough of them to know that the ones I know are either very nice and decent people, or are flaming, attention starved, self destructive freaks. I assume its a genetic reason, likely a flaw, no different than a cleft pallet, 11th toe or some other abnormality. |

I read it after it was posted and decided the part of the post leading up to that was too antagonistic so I rewrote it. But I'm sure you're aware that there are groups who are nominally Christians who have a liberal, [nearly] "anything goes" approach to religion.

Can you be "nominally Christian"? Seems to me like you either are or you aren't. Not that I know much about it, I'm just lately starting to dip my toes back in those waters. |

i was one of those guys who made the "pray hard" comment and i happen to be very christian. i go to church at least a few times a month and i'm in college...
but i've been witness to some of these ignorant people who try to "pray the gay away" like their kid is possessed by some demon... it's comical |

Well no, not really. But what else are you going to call them?
