Letters, we get letters
Usually we just delete emails like this. However, with the current gay rights climate being what it is, and folks like Matt Barber acting as if threats and ill wishes are only the jurisdiction of heated gay activists, we see more reason than ever to bring to light some of the hate -- TRUE HATE -- that we receive on a fairly frequent basis:
Cursing? Wishes for us to acquire a dreaded disease? An inadequate and rude closing? [::sigh::] Letter writing etiquette is such a dying art form.
Your thoughts
Aw, we love you guys too.

JH that isn't hate...that is jealousy.. barnyard jealousy, but all the same. Can you imagine anyone of any gender loving someone like that?

This kind of stuff always makes me feel warm and mushy inside. *laughs sardonically*
Weren't they the ones saying that they were getting hate mail from us? Pardon my French, but... What the fuck?

This just has to be from a good Christian. Only religion can produce thinking like that.

Maybe he should have gone back to school and learned the language before he tried sending out hate mail. There's some serious errors in there.

"a few doctors"
A few? Uh, try the majority of the medical and psychological establishment. Try the majority of reputable health organizations.
Yes yes, the "you'll pay" argument. Oh please. That didn't work when me and my brother tried it "I'm going to tell! You're going to be in trouBLE!!! Mom said, mom said!"
So let "Mom" deal with me and shut the hell up!

See, I believe that it always boils down to Leviticus 18:22. No matter how much religionists attempt to use other arguments such as "loving the sinner and hating the sin," or "a man shall cleave unto his wife," or that homosexuality is simply a (rebellious) choice that can be changed, deep down, they just can't get over "for a man to lie with a man is an abomination unto the Lord." I think that if you press a religionists hard enough, and strip away all the other justifications they use, that line is the ultimate source of their belief and actions about homosexuality. It's viscerally disgusting to them.
And I don't know how we can argue against that, since they consider the Bible the infallible word of God. It takes a lot to shake someone's faith, and sexual matters is not going to do it.
