Reading through some of the recent posts, ie; The topic of Lazarus and the gay issue, I was flabbergasted at what I was reading. I can't believe-well maybe I can, that some people on this site are calling gay people "Faggots", and telling that person that they are going to get "What Sodom and Gomorrah got".
This site has been a godsend to me, and have been telling my friends how nice it is to be in with a group of people who can relate to my life, my feelings, my insecurities, and my fears relating to the org. and not being a part of it anymore. Over the years, it has been so hard to relate to anybody about this situation, as people cannot really understand what it is like until you have been in that position. That is what I liked about this website, I was finally feeling that I was able to be myself, knowing that the things I was saying, and the other post that I was reading, others could relate to. That felt so great, I have been on such a "High" being here, at times it is hard not to spend hours and hours on this site. It has been nice to have the option of coming here at times when I have felt scared, or depressed and be able to read the posts by others in the same situation. Even times when I felt happy, and going to some of the fun game posts and word association threads I felt I could let loose with some fun.
Everybody has a right to their own opinion, but to blatantly be mean and use "Faggot", and denoting that they are going to get what Sodom and Gomorrah got is too much! I can laugh with the best if someone that I know jokes around and calls me "Queer" "Flamer", or some other connotation to my life, but to be plain mean is a different story.
I have had to deal with bullies and nasty backstabbers all of my life, I thought I would not have to face that prejudice here. Thanks for ruining something I was beginning to cherish. So much for self-esteem! Thanks!!!
Sincerely,
Another Faggot awaiting what Sodom and Gomorrah got
