Being Gay Must Be From God

Being gay must be from God my mother said She is the CEO of her church And opinionated She has come a long way in eighty-three years And who says God is a man? She asked. God may be a woman. Why do you say that about being gay? I queried. Because no one would CHOOSE that life style, she replied. It is way too HARD.

The same way nobody would choose to be given a short straw in any given situation of birth, much too hard.

She sounds like a very wise woman who thinks through the thorny issues.

She is pretty opinionated; I feel she is straightening out some of them in heaven, helping them to level up.

Your mother comes at the topic from a very interesting angle... Perhaps she feels the same way about being Jewish. Smile, Gershon

She sure might! She was Irish - her maiden name is McCormick, so she knows a bit about being persecuted.
