Quote From: elle1951I can completely empathize with you and also feel distraught, saddened, and even angry. My only
daughter is gay and lives with her partner who is Venezualan. She is 35 and is a successful
professional. She came out when she 18. I too, inaccurately thought that she would " grow out "
of it. But now realize and believe that it is NOT a choice. I accept and love her for herself. I visit them
and stay with them periodically. [ I live several states away . I only wish for her happiness , regardless of her orientation. I applaud your loving and open minded attitude towards your
daughter. Too often, a parent's love is conditional. If we really love our children , it should be
unconditionally and complete. I get so angry sometimes, when I hear so called " Christians "
judging and looking down on gays. They live in such a narrow , self righteous world. Jesus
taught love and tolerance. That certainly isn't followed today by most people.
I AM A CHRISTIAN. I BELIEVE THAT YOU SHOULD NOT "STOP" LOVING SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THEIR SINS. JESUS DID TEACH TOLERANCE AND UNCONDITIONAL LOVE TOWARD ONE ANOTHER. THE PEOPLE WHO ARE JUDGING AND LOOKING DOWN ON GAYS ARE NOT TRULY CHRISTIANS. IT IS NOT OUR PLACE TO JUDGE THOSE THAT ARE IN SIN....BECAUSE WE WERE ONCE IN SIN TOO....AND STILL TODAY HAVE FAULTS IN OUR LIVES. EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES AND FALLS SOMETIMES. WE MUST LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES, REPENT, AND TURN AWAY FROM SIN. KEEP LOVING YOUR DAUGHTER WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND PRAY FOR HER.
