"Gay Desires to Serve Openly" deleted

Okay, I've officially deleted the "Gay desires to serve openly" section because of the unhealthy direction that it was traveling. If there cannot be a civilized debate ruled by reason and not by emotion or bashing of individual people, then what is the point of debating? Tearing down other people is not the way to win an argument, and I don't want this blog to become a "people bashing" kind of place.
I applaud those bloggers that kept cool heads, but their numbers were very few, on both sides of the issue.

Stay tuned. I'm bound to step on your toes again sometime soon.

Ok. We were concerned with the vulgar direction the conversation was taking, along with the numerous emotional appeals.

So, what we may do later today is post again, except this time the disscussion needs to remain level headed and clean.

And yes, those words are gone.

Actually, I am glad the words are gone and maybe we can start fresh. There was enough mean-spiritedness on both sides to warrant a delete. Thanks for monitoring, Liz. I look forward to the next conversation with all of you.
