>You're certainly entitled to your opinion. I always thought your god was a loving god. I'm reminded of a retired coworker Wren who had a life partner Miss Hart. Wren was the most caring, gentle and generous supervisor, one who you invariably could sway into helping the most desperate child or homeless person even when the budget wouldn't allow it. Her partner was my daughter's 3rd grade teacher. Ms. Hart inspired my previously shy daughter to not be ashamed of her intelligence something young girls are prone to do for whatever reason. Before having Ms. Hart she would come home crying if her teacher read her essay out loud. I'll never forget at the end of the third grade Audra standing confidently in front of the entire school and all the competetive parents winning the Spelling Bee beating out the 4th and 5th graders. She never could have accomplished this with out Ms. Hart. And I would never have survived 20 years of social work without Wren. I could give a sh!t if they sleep together. I only wish my two marriages were as blessed as theirs is. And you'll never convince me otherwise that God didn't have a hand in bringing these two wonderful women together.
