Yes, there are gays who have tried to get the LGBT community to be accepted. And they have had a great deal of success, although not complete success. I wish they would have more success. I hope that anti-gay bigots would learn to accept them as well, and not fear them.

Perhaps you are unaware of my family. My mother was an Austrian Jew who managed to escape the Holocaust although other members of her family did not, including her parents. She taught me to hate bigotry and discrimination of any sort from my earliest days. My younger brother is gay and married. Two of my closest friends are a gay married couple. My daughter-in-law is black. My next-door neighbors are Muslim. I know these people as people, not as abstractions. I accept them as they are.

You say that you do not know the cause of "same-sex attraction", and then in the next breath you say it is chosen. No, it is not chosen.

The ones more likely to be on the road to hell are those who hate gays, not those who love them.
