Fag Lover Union

I love my gay friends.

My gay husband especially.
I jokingly call myself Mrs Kok. If u know wadimean. ;)

But I suppose wats weird to many is dat I am also a Christian.
And not the go to church twice a year kind.

But I go to church every week. I'm in a cell group. And I'm leading a ministry in my church.

And I love love LOVE gays.

What I hate, in fact, are anti-homosexuals.

When I first became a Christian, I remember my church friends telling me with disgusted faces all about gays.

I shouldn't be too close to gays. Friends can. But from a distance.
You know. Just in case I get 'influenced'.

Being a new Christian at that time, I felt something was wrong.
But I was young. New to being a Christian. Blur to the ways of 'holiness'.
So I thought it was true.

And then one day, a close church friend of mine sat me down.
"I'm gay."

I spaced out for a few seconds.
"As in, I'm homo."

I said confusedly, "Meaning..."
"I'm not heterosexual."
"I like guys. Not girls."

I kept quiet for a couple of minutes.
Then asked the worst thing I could possibly ask.
"Well... do you think you could change?"

I won't tell you the rest of the conversation.
Just that it didn't get any better after that.

Till today, I hate myself for ever asking that question.
Till today, I think my friend will forever remember the hurtful way I responded to his open heart.

I told myself, from that day onwards, I would never be unaccepting of gays again.
No matter what the 'Christians' say.

Dun get me wrong.
Homosexuality is a sin. Its clear cut in the Bible.

But so what?
So is lying. Being lazy. Gossiping. Judging.

What makes us better than gays?

What gives us the right to shun them.
What gives us a right to kick them out from our society.
What gives us a right to treat them second class.

I love my gay husband.
He's humble.
He's loving.
Best of all, he's been a real friend.

Way better than many straight ones!

So I'm saying it here.
Loud and clear.

I'm a fag lover!!!
And I'm dang proud of it.
So say watcha wan. ^^
