Reply #9: After I posted here, I went to the website for that cruise company...

... and read the most heartwarming post from a straight woman. I've left out her name, but it does show that there are some 'true' Christians left in the world, something I was beginning to doubt.

"Straight Friend here....just saw the HBO Documentary and cried through it all...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I cried when I saw gay and lesbian families free to express their love openly without judgement.

I cried when I saw five adopted children say a blessing during their fathers' holy union ceremony.

I cried when I saw the welcoming way the city of Key West opened its arms to the passengers.

I cried when I saw the protesting in Nassau and seeing children upset because they don't understand why people are shouting at them.

I cried when I, a follower of Christ, witnessed other "Christians" spewing hate and not love to the passengers.

I cried when I saw beautiful teenage childrend raised by gay parents praise them and thank them for all the love they have shown them.

To all of you wonderfully courageous gay families out there--may God continue to bless and strengthen your families and relationships. It is my prayer that one day very soon that equality in marriage will be available for ALL.

Thanks for reading this long rambling post. I was so moved I just had to write!"
