The Gays....You Won't Like Us When We're Angry

We saw The Incredible Hulk movie last night with Craig's sister and 2 of his brothers. In an effort to avoid any negative energy sent my way by the universe, I will describe only the positive aspects of this film.

That concludes my review of The Incredible Hulk.

People often ask us how our families deal with the whole gay thing. We both come from very religious Mormon families. Current Mormon policy (as I understand it) is that homosexuality in and of itself is not a sin, but acting on the "tendencies" is. This is a somewhat more open position on the issue than in the 1970's when the church considered homosexuality a "crime against nature" and believed it to be a sickness that was cureable.

Let me make it very clear that I hold no ill will toward the Mormon church. I believe as an organization they do a lot of good in the world and I respect and admire those that affiliate themselves with the church.

I believe strongly that many paths can reach the same destination and I am simply on a different path then the one that I was raised on. I wish everyone could be more tolerant and accepting of those around them that might believe differently. This is something that I'd like to get better at myself.

So, as far as our families are concerned, neither of us was disowned. We still are in contact with all our family members and we attend each other's family events together. I'm not sure what kind of chatter might be happening when we are not around, but I choose not to concern myself with that. All in all, I think we both consider ourselves lucky to have great families and we appreciate the time we get to spend with them.
