From your May 29 post: "I have gay people in my family that I love dearly but that still does not make me believe that their life style is right - but I love them just the same. " "I do believe that the homosexual life style is un-natural..." From the May 27 post: " It goes against nature. " You just described your relatives as un-natural, living bad lives because they don't live YOUR version of morality, and have more than likely said other similar things. Your relatives are homosexual. Talking negative about homosexuals means you are talking bad about your relatives. You, therefore, have verbally (in writing at the least) abused them. Adding the "I Love them" doesn't diminish this as a fact. Andrew
