1) The love sure seems to be wrapped in a lot of hate
I got a lot of mail explaining to me that we are all fallen and homosexuality is just one sin among many.
I also got a lot of emails calling me a faggot, urging me to "have fun burning in hell", saying gays should "buy an island and get out of our faces," etc.
If Christian messages against homosexual activity come out of love, how is it that they ended up producing so much hate?

are hateful people that wrap themselves in the flag and the bible. They are creeps and represent the downfall of civilized society.
