AJ,
I see what you are saying. But what about those glbt folks who lived as such back in the 20's-30's-40's and so on? We cannot ignore their presents here on earth. That would be wrong.
Yes, I agree with you about the timeline. Society will not allow us to go backwards in ignoring racial and sexual orientation. Too many people are out, and companies are adjusting to domestic partners (benefits). The problem is with obtaining the same rights as hetro. We all are deserving of that.
As for faith, that is really a journey that everyone takes alone. It is like someone transitioning. It isn't something that a group does together. It's individualistic. I find it very insulting and offensive when people think it is their business as to why someone like myself does have surgery, but doesn't go on hrt. It blows my mind. Like why is someone Catholic, Buddist, Jewish, or Wiccan. It isn't my focus. It is that person's. Does this make sense?
