Dammit! I guess I'll have to wait until December to meet you.
Gary if you are going to the dessert Party, let either wannabebelle or myself know.
I have to keep a list of whose going.

First of all, I would like to say that I am a Catholic who is extremely strong in his beliefs. I have been to Catholic school since I was five, and I am an altar server at my church. My religion classmates even joke with me about being Jesus' second coming and that I should become a priest.
Now...
I have seen many ridiculous things on this subject. I have seen how many heterosexuals are close-minded, but also how everyone else is close-minded too! We must face the truth that everyone in the world has their prejudices!
We are human beings living in a diverse world, and we must realize that as long as their is human life, there will be prejudices. We do not have to accept what we think is wrong either, as some of the people on this site have shown quite exuberantly. As humans, we have the free choice and the ability to try to change what we think is wrong.
Just as some of the heterosexuals have displayed their prejudices against homosexuals, so have many, heterosexual and homosexual, expressed their prejudices and sometimes hate for the religious. Even one person who was sticking up for homosexuals said he lived with a Jew; one instance of prejudice.
This whole argument was based on a simply invitation, and therefore, I will not make any comment on Gay Days or homosexuality. (That should be for another thread.)
I leave with this last remark on what I have viewed today. What an amazing world God has created where life is so abundant and people so diversified. Our diverse world is truely a gift, and if all we do is argue about it, we will never be able to enjoy. And just think with all the diversity in our world, it is amazing that we are all able to come together and enjoy one thing, Disney.
P.S.- Besides being a strong Catholic, I am also a great lover of debate and in Advanced Placement English classes.

I am coming ...did I tell you already I forgot LOL:hammer:
It's on Dec. 4th. It's a special viewing area (covered patio) for Fantasmic. We are having things like fruit topped cheesecake, fresh fruit, chocolates, hot waffles with ice cream and fruit toppings, etc. It's a private party for WDWMagic forum members and their friends/family.
The cost is $28 per person.
Pam
Yes Travis you did. Did you ever get the PM that I sent you about it?

Heading for the great escape.
I take it your point about your catholic beleif system is that you are keen to demonstrate your support for a gay life style, as practiced worldwide by the preisthood.
Most of the members have been sending a check. I sent you a PM.
Pam
Oh NOOO!!
Don't say that. Let me know when you get home.Pam

Wow..I can't believe I read all 16 pages.:brick:
To all you Gay Bashers: Shut up or butt heads with the Gays in a PM...I'm tired of reading this crap.
To all you Gays: If you wanna hook up then do it in a PM or in the Chit Chat section...And stop defending yourselves...it's YOUR life not THEIRS. I'm tired of reading this crap.
To all you Religious Fanatics: Preach at church...I'm tired of reading this crap.
To all you Disney Fans: Whenever you go to Disney World, whomever you go with, Have a great time and remember the Magic!
143 days till my next Disney vacation!!:sohappy:

Yes, some things have been done wrong in the Catholic Church, but the majority of priests are not gay! Many priest I know were considered "ladies' men" before they went into the priesthood. Anyone who says a comment like you have just stated obviously does not realize that someone can have so much faith in God that they would give up falling in love with a woman, getting married, and having children. Instead of bashing the priesthood, we should look to priest as sacrificing their lives to the services of others and of God.

Gary we are meeting at the MVMCP on the 9th also. Let me know if you can make it.

No Im sorry but I never said they were gay. The two things must not be confused . I cant turn a blind eye to kiddie fiddling no matter how good it may make some people feel to disguise the fact that institutional abuse is rife. If perhaps it were an isolated incident then perhaps my cheap comments may have been misplaced however daily revelations worldwide prove otherwise.
Mind you I have never said there is anything wrong with a bit of bishop bashing, regardless of your denomination.
And naughty monkeys should be chastised when required.

I'm sorry for misunderstanding you, and I totally agree with you. You should have seen how angry I and everyone I knew was about these problems. But though there are some, the majority of priests are not, and many are trying to rectify the things that have happened in the church.

Okay, I REALLY hope this doesn't blow up in my face.
It was really great meeting Gary at the Comedy Warehouse on June 4th. He and I were the only ones who showed up from either of the discussion boards. (he posted it on gayday.com, too) and after we had a great time at CW we went over to 8-trax and met alot of great people from the other boards.
Gary, thanks for trying to put together a group. Maybe we'll have a better turn out next year.
I'm working on a trip report for the incredibly fun time we had. I plan on posting it on the other discussion board. If anyone is interested in reading it let me know and I'll post it here at WDWMagic as well.
It's nice to be home, but it was SO HARD to leave!
