So gay sex is a sin, but so is heterosexual sex using birth control. Homosexuals aren’t singled out at all or treated any different than anyone else. Its the act that is a sin, not the person.

As for you second question… are you asking why NYRA doesn’t do anything specifically for gay youth? Its because we work on the rights of ALL youth. We recognize a common struggle among all young people. To compartmentalize is to segregate. To focus on gay youth excludes black youth. To focus on black youth excludes female youth. To focus on any one of these groups excludes the big picture, which is ALL youth.

We hang together or we hang seperately.

If you are implying that I am personally biased against gays and have used my position to stop NYRA from taking on a specific campaign about gay youth because of my bias, you couldn’t be further off the mark. I am a strong supporter of gay rights, I don’t know where you would have gotten the impression I wasn’t. Furthermore, as I said above, segregating gay youth rights issues away from the rest of the youth rights issues hurts, not helps gay youth.
