Thank you

I believe I am equal to my peers. Unfortunately many others don't. I see it in my workplace, amongst family and friends, on the Tv etc etc. And comments like the Bishops really sadden me. Whilst as you say many people will agree that he's out of touch, many will digest what he has said. And I don't just mean the sexuality issue but all his comments.
I only had a relative telling me last week that it was ok me being gay as he loved me, but he didn't agree with it as far as anyone else was concerned. I merely responded with 'thank you for giving me permission to be me' and left it at that.

Oh my, I was merely responding to the comments of the bishop. I was simply pointing out that I see it as being ridiculous that someone like me could be held partly responsible for the mass flooding across the country by this idiot. I was merely pointing out that some people will take the bishops comments on board as being true. I didn't for one minute want to attack anyone's faith, or opinion. Apologies if I have offended anyone. And thank you foreverwar for trying to explain better than I can my point.
