    Who can speak for God?

    None of us...The word of God as TRANSLATED from memory of those who witnessed early biblical events and those of JC's life on earth, are just that translations of memory and we all know what happens when the 1st person whispers into the ear of the next and so on...the end translation is often v-e-r-y different from the origins. Yes, I do think He wants Gays to stay Gay, just as He wants the child who suffers from birth defects and MS to remain in their present condition, to teach tolerance, compassion and love for those that are perceived "different", to not judge them and see them as "less than". We are all children of the universe, no more, no less than another. Most gay people I know are good upstanding people. They do no harm, they contribute to society , community and family
    they are loving people. I think THATS what God wants from each of us, and as so long as we do and are, the comeback is 10 fold. As my wonderful hetro, staunch Catholic, 86 yr old mother told me, "God made you this way, and He doesn't make junk"
