When I was younger, I believed what my mother told me, "If you have sex before marriage you will go to hell," & "Gay people will not go to heaven." Here in lies my predictament, because I was a virgin until I decided to test my faith. I figured, as long as I am a lesbian, I am going to hell. So I did the right thing, by being with heterosexual males, and lost my virginity to a guy. But that still meant I was going to hell! After 6 years in the closet, I decided it was time to come out. And finally be happy being me.

I am wondering if anyone wants to continue the disucussion of the sunday sermon at Hillhurst United Church, Calgary Alberta.  The sermon is on the sixth dealy sin of lust and the virture of love.  If you missed the sermon you can hear it at www.hillhurstunited.com.  I got this idea last week and am posting this before the sermon on sunday morning.
