I don't get it either. I never get shocked anymore when someone famous comes out. It's like, "oh, that's so nice for them," but it's not something that needs to be negative. People shouldn't be afraid to come out. When are people going to get that it has NOTHING to do with religion?
And speaking of religion, when did it become OKAY to be predjudice in the name of Christ? I'm sure Jesus would be pretty upset if he knew how many bigots are spouting hate in his name. It's just sad. And it makes the Christians look like idiots. God is the only one who can judge. The rest of us don't have that right.
