<\/a>There isn\u2019t too much I want to say about the movie I am watching as I write this, For The Bible Tells Me So<\/a><\/i>, apart from this: Watch it<\/u><\/strong>. It addresses the roots of homophobia, the Bible and how it relates to homosexuality, and the damage that parents in particular can do if they respond in the wrong way to their child who comes out to them. It addresses the science, the radical ways marriage between men and women today in our society differs from \u201cBiblical marriage\u201d.<\/p>\nWatch the movie. For more information, try TEACH Ministries<\/a>, Soulforce<\/a>, and Would Jesus Discriminate?<\/a>. If you are a gay person who came here looking for help, try those sites, but most importantly, don\u2019t let a bunch of heterosexuals who never chose to be the way they are tell you that God supposedly doesn\u2019t accept you for something you know you didn\u2019t choose either. And don\u2019t just assume that the loud, shouting voices you hear are the ones who really speak for God or Christianity.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/a>Perhaps most poignant is the perspective of a mother who raised her children according to the teachings of James Dobson. Her daughter killed herself. Another family has a more positive story, but when they tried to confront James Dobson with how they focused on their family, they were threatened with arrest for trespassing.<\/p>\n
