Owen -

	First of all, you need to figure out how to forge a post much 
better than you have done in this case.

	Second of all, my lifestyle is that of an undergrad engineer.
I have little, if any time, for socializing.  

	Third, I am *not* strictly homosexual.  I can father children, and
will, in my own time.

	You state that you would "like to see" me "sodomize my butt-buddy 
and have children!"  My response to you:

		1) Why would you enjoy watching sex between men?

		2) In case your concepts about biology are as twisted as
		   your concepts about psychology or sexuality, I have 
		   news for you:  If I have intercourse with someone, I 
		   will not "have children" as a result.  If my partner is
		   female, and we elect not to use contraception, then she
		   may.  

		3) Hmm... upon further reading, I think it's your 
		   facility with the English language that seems to be
		   giving you trouble.  I'm sure Texas A&M offers remedial
		   courses in sentence structure, grammar, and composition.
		   You should really look into that. 

	Next, your thoughts run to incest.  Is incest a subject that 
regularly occupies your mind?  

	Now, I realize the truth is hard for you to take, but most gay people,
most psychological professionals, & many medical professionals will tell 
you that a person's sexual orientation is an innate characteristic, not
a learned trait.  Certainly, no one in my heterosexual household 
brainwashed (see, it's one word, not two, Owen) me into my sexual orientation.

	Lastly, you talk about the educational system in New York, which is
trying to teach children that it's OK to be who they are, and that even if 
you & I are different, we can still get along together.  Hmm, maybe you 
would benefit from remedial instruction in tolerance, as well.

	In a postscript, you write that:
	"They have the knowledge that justifies a perverted lifestyle,
	 yet lack the wisdom to realized they are sick!"

	1) Don't presume to judge my lifestyle, when you know nothing of it 
	   other than that I sleep with a member of my own sex.

	2) My "wisdom" and your "wisdom" may differ.  That doesn't invalidate
	   either one.  For you, a homosexual experiewnce would probably be 
	   a bad idea.  That doesn't make it so for me.

	3) But, you do make a valid point.  You claim to "have the 
	   knowledge that justifies" your "perverted lifestyle" of hatred,
	   bigotry, and intolerance, yet you "lack the wisdom to realized"
	   [sic] that you "are sick".

	Yes, the hatred & fear that burns inside you is a sickness, Owen, 
and, as a Christian, I have nothing but the greatest compassion for you.  
Jesus Christ tells us to love one another, saints & sinners alike.  My 
heart is filled with Christian love for you, & concern for your well-being.
I hope you find the way to peace & understanding, rather than continuing 
in your sinful ways of hatred & judgement.
