HOMOSEXUALITY
AND RELIGION
I
firmly believe that sexual orientation has nothing to do with any
religion, and calling it "sinful" is just an excuse by some

and bigotry against gay, lesbian and bisexual youth. This
hopefully puts to
rest the arguments coming from conservatives that homosexuality is a
"sin".

side. We're asking people to do
something, to think, and change, while the
antigay side is asking them to do nothing. Here
are some questions to challenge yourself and to
think about. |
