If they call themselves GAY why are they so very unhappy?

I received a Fathers day note form a gay person and it was full of nothing but hate and lies. Why are they so unhappy?

I feel very sad for those who suffer from same sex attraction. Those that I have worked with whom I knew well enough all shared a very sad history of some sort of childhood trauma. One was raised by a brutally abusive mother, in another case an emotional distant father, another sexual abuse by a relative. I know some will disagree with me but I believe same sex attraction is a psychological disorder. The mind is a very complex thing who knows why some with childhood trauma react in one way while others in another.

If this “hate” and these “lies” were directed at you you have to remember people with psychological problems may have a different perception of their own reality. My mom for instance has bouts of mental illness. She will accuse me of things that never happened, embellish or twist what really happened, and deny that certain events ever happened. And in her mind I believe she believes what she says.

I would say pray for this person. If at all possible respond to this person with charity and Christian love. Those co-workers with same sex attraction that opened up to me were truly tormented souls. If this person lashed out at you in this way I could only believe they are are in a lot of emotional pain.

So tragic!!! The pain that one must go through to get to the point of homosexuality. I sometimes feel that much more attention (love and emotional attachment) should be given to boys, it seems there is a preoccupation with “girl power” and the boys are just ignored.

Yes, that may be true. What I found interesting was that this Dr. Baars gave the Church much good info back in the 1970s about these topics and nothing was done.
