I am not a good person to comment on this issue, but here goes.
I have a business interest with two gay partners. Have known them for a very long time. All I can say is that at least they’re still in business—even if I am not seeing profits.
I have a close relative who was married to a gay person. They divorced over it. She never remarried and was crushed overall. He was one of the first people in her area of the country to die of AIDS. She knew him and helped care for him that entire time. Following his death, his family denied her benefits he’d prescribed.
I also have a close friend who was married for 20 years to a man who turned out to be gay. He has now ruined 3 lives, including hers, his, and his child, who lives in the basement and will not be moved...at the age of over 30 years old.
The argument over gays and Christians sits hard on me. To me, the gay experience of these lives is decidedly and willfully anti-Christian.
I have worked with homosexuals and for them and never had any problems. I grew up with a guy who was lured into homosexuality when he was about 14 by a man 35. He took care of him like his parents never did. All of them have different stories and some I feel very sorry for. That being said, I have no “tolerance” for those who will stop at nothing to destroy Christians.
