The Catholic connection

For those of you who are Catholic, Catholics for Marriage Equality has a really nice "Talking Tips" section.

First Universalist in Minneapolis

This church has been making some really exciting and inspiring videos for a few months.




Hopefully we can learn from them, and join with them to change the conversation in MN from one of exclusivity to one that accepts and supports all people.

Comfortable vs Right



A few weeks ago at a Spirit of Truth discussion one of our members noted that perhaps this is one of those issues in which a fair amount of people don't have an opinion one way or the other, or perhaps ever believe that gay folks should have the same rights but are afraid to act because they believe they would be in the "outside" crowd.  She gave examples such as a women's rights to work, in which the majority was against it until suddenly the majority was for it... meaning that the moment people thought it was more popular to support women working, they had no problem switching positions.

In this video Pastor Grant accepts that some people may be uncomfortable with homosexuality. He even suggests we can all be supportive of those who feel discomfort with change, but suggests that we must not deny other people rights because we personally are uncomfortable.
