Do you not believe that Love is more important
If I say I love you and you love me is that worth anything
Do I not deserve to live my life free
Free from persecution
Free from discrimination
Free from hate of any kind

Who I love is not hurting anyone
So do I not deserve to live my life free
You hate me and sack me
with out even knowing me
You see who I love and judge me

Gay or Lesbian I still love the same as any straight person
kisses and cuddles
holding hands
Love is love no matter where it is projected
If God hates me for who I am
then he hates you to
'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than this
so to hate me is to hate yourself
and in this world we are all neighbors

So do I not deserve to live my life free
Free from persecution
Free from discrimination
Free from hate of any kind
Written from the point of view of a Gay/Lesbian person
I myself are not gay but that does not mean that I can not fight for gay rights

Gays and Lesbian have just as much rights as anyone and everyone and it is about time the world stop discriminating against them

This was written in response to a report that the boy scouts revoked agreement with Seattle church over gay troop leader
