For what it’s worth, I like the picture. It doesn’t make you look gay — whatever that is.

Yeah, it didn't take long to figure out you weren't really wanting to be my fbff (facebook friend forever.)

You state:

And really you should butch up your picture if you think anyone is going to believe you are not gay.

Do you find it surprising I deleted your access to my facebook profile?

It's interesting you say, in the quote above, exactly the same thing I hear from truly homophobic people from time to time.

When I identified as gay I didn't apologize for my appearance and demeanor. I won't start now that I am not gay.

Our letter, and linked posts at the bottom of the post make it clear we believe the legislation is horrible. We may not agree with you, and certainly not your misrepresentation of Don, on the best course a person could self-determine for their life with same sex attractions but we do agree that this bill would be a horrible travesty is passed.

And, not engaging you in a public battle is not the same as not listening to what you have to say. Post all you want here, I'll get it ... I just won't let it through to be published publicly (unless I or the team determine it fits within our guidelines.)

Hi Randy
Boy, that was fast, deletin me off your facebook site. Did you not like hearing your fellow Evangelists words to the public in Uganda? Harsh to hear all those lies about LGBTQI people cloaked in “understand the homosexual.” It must make your heart hurt to know deep down your organization helped light the match to the fear fire in Uganda and now, the death penalty.

And really you should butch up your picture if you think anyone is going to believe you are not gay.
