			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I started this blog in January of 2007.  It&#8217;s been more than 2.5 years and I&#8217;m surprised to announce that the most popular post is:</p>
<p>&#8220;why does god hate homosexuals?&#8221;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m surprised &#8211; yet not surprised.  I can only imagine there are thousands if not tens of thousands of young kids out there struggling to figure out &#8220;what&#8217;s god thinking?&#8221;  How do I reconcile my homosexuality with my church?</p>
<p>What&#8217;s wrong with me?</p>
<p>These are very normal questions.  Many heterosexuals (probably in the billions) ask themselves that question daily!  Really, no kidding.</p>
<p>You&#8217;re not alone.  People all over the world a perplexed.  What kind of god let&#8217;s this happen &#8211; especially to me!  I&#8217;m a good person.  I&#8217;ve done nothing wrong.  Why me?</p>
<p>There are 2 obvious answers:</p>
<p>1.  god really doesn&#8217;t like you.<br />
2.  god doesn&#8217;t exist.</p>
<p>Perhaps there are more than 2.  I&#8217;m sure someone out there has created some middle ground in their mind.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to hear &#8220;god loves you, but hates your sin.&#8221;  That&#8217;s bullshit.  I hate that response.  Love the sinner &#8211; hate the sin.  That&#8217;s how &#8220;Christians&#8221; dehumanize their hatred.  It makes them feel better about themselves.  It has nothing to do with love, or compassion.  </p>
<p>Being lumped in with other sinners for being in love with another is sick.  Two grown women or men loving each other is not a sin &#8211; it&#8217;s love!  It&#8217;s fucking love, not sin.  There&#8217;s nothing wrong with more love in this world.</p>
<p>It makes me sad to think that in 2009, this is the most popular post on my blog.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve got such a long way to go&#8230;</p>
<p>Later,</p>
<p>Nimbu</p>
