"True Story. A religion teacher assigned her class an essay on what makes a good Christian. One student wrote about praying nightly, say no to abortion, banning gay marriage, and donating money. The other student wrote about talking to God and allowing people to enjoy their lives, and supporting gay marriage. The day the teacher was to hand the papers back, she called up the second student and told him she would pray for him when he went to hell. The student asked why would he be going to hell, and why he got an F on his paper. The teacher told him that Catholisim is against gay marriage. The student looked at her for a minute, then said aloud, "I'm gay." The teacher kicked him out of class as if he had said fuck or worshipped Satan. A girl in the back of class who had a boyfriend and was obviously straight got up and left too.

If you would leave the classroom, repost this. It doesn't matter if you're straight, bi, or gay. It doesn't matter if you're Catholic or Christian or not. Everyone is a human being and deserves happiness."

i got very angry after i read this, like wth? so we should put our own happiness over God? isnt that just plain selfish? and besides, what the second student said was wrong anyway. even though what he said about talking to God was right, you cant be gay and be a good christian! its like pork murtabak, just impossible...

and besides, the first student's also wrong, praying nightly as though is were a ritual does not make you a good christian anymore than going to church (or yg or going for fop) does. what is the point? praying should be done out of respect to God and because he is our father and we have to thank him daily for what has done in our lives; not as a ritual because you HAVE to... no doubt we have to pray to God everyday but we dont do it for the sake of doing it, just like you dont go to church just because you are forced to or have to... you go to church because you go there to praise and worship God, and thats the same reason we pray

the thing about homosexuality is that theres nothing wrong with it in itself, just dont pursue it unless you can somehow find a way to sure it through counselling and pure determination and through the help of God... its probably very hard for homosexuals but its never too hard to uphold the word of God and do things pleasing to His eye? so the point is that homosexuals should either change their sexual orientation or die single. i know it sounds very harsh but if they do that God will be smiling on them and He would probably make a way for them.

no doubt i would have walked out of the class, not because i support homosexuality, but because i wouldnt be able to stand the wrongness of it all. while it is true that everyone deserves their fair share of happiness, they should only be enjoying it without compromising God.

yeah just my 2 cents... if you want to say anything and have a blog just repost this and give your views..
