I've read through this thread and maybe i'm just not getting it tonight or i'm just way too tired.

But, why in the hell would anyone expect or want an apology from any church or organization or committee or group of anything in the first place?

From my point of view there isn't "one" singular type of person or place or institution that is responsible for our lack of rights and how we are treated on a day to day basis. It is people in general who have voted or not voted, whispered and criticized, ridiculed, beaten, screamed, spit, maimed and killed our family members in our LGBT community. Not a secular or specific person, people or place.

I realize that some parts of religion and some Christian history has played a big part in that. But, it's not the whole ball of wax. There are many LGBT churches. One group cannot take all of the blame and then overnight rectify what how we have been treated all over the world for centuries.

I would be way happier to see "We support you" or "We believe in the same God, come visit our church, you are welcome". But, apology? No, that's just silly to me.
