I doubt IWs gay membership appreciates it. I am personally distgusted by such language.
You are entitled to your opinion.

But you have a point about referring to homosexuality as a perversion. That language IS too strong - especially in this setting - so I do apologize for that comment and I especially apologize to any IW members that were offended by that remark.
[/QUOTE]Thanks Cerek and I apologize to you for not taking this up via PM where, in retrospect, it would have been better handled. I feel bad because it seems like I called you out a bit harshly.

Perhaps if you framed your disagreement as simply "religious reasons" and elaborated to anyone curious via PM. Just a suggestion. [img]smile.gif[/img]
