And I was in a rage........and have to vent now.
Basically, this is a female TBM who is about to marry in the temple by the end of this year.
She emailed me today and told me about what she "feels" about the whole political debate on "Chick-fil-A vs Boston."
A few things she mentioned in the email are:
1. Like the Profits and Sears and Renovators have said, in both "Proclamation of Family," gender was determined in pre-existence and it is a grave sin to want to reverse that. (WTF?)
2. Homosexuality (or bisexuality or any type of sexuality other than heterosexuality) is a mental addiction, just like alcoholism. If a person is addicted to any form of sexuality other than heterosexuality, it is that person's responsibility to "repent" of that sin and return to the "strait and narrow path" instead of whining, screaming, and asking for special rights. (WTF?)
3. Even if scientists prove the existence of "gay gene," it still cannot justify homosexuality because some scientists are close to proving that alchohol/drug addiction can be hereditary as well. If we can't legalize alchoholism or drug addiction, then we can't legal homosexuality, either. (WTF?)
I basically blocked her without even bothering to waste on my time on a reply.
I had a very dear friend (TBM, mind you, and extremely gentle and non-judgmental) who was gay and passed away several years ago. So, to me, to call that friend of mine something "an addict" is just...NOT acceptable.
