believe in your own god

People in the church say that God created the world and created human beings, and that God is not wrong. But they say homosexuality is a sin, and AIDS is God's punishment for homosexuality. Since God created human beings without error, why does homosexuality exist? Since it appeared, how could it be a crime again? What the hell do you want God to do to satisfy you? Just because you are not gay, so you are afraid that you can't accept it and tell the truth, it's right to rely on God. Did the Bible fall from the sky or was it compiled by humans? Who is the author? Do you think that God's mind should be dragged out and burned ten thousand times? Has anyone ever heard a voice in the sky saying "homosexuality is sin" one day in a certain month of the year? If there is no person who pretends to be God to destroy homosexuality, should it be dragged and burned again? I believe in God, I have no disbelief. But I believe in both Buddhas and all gods at the same time. But I believe in the God in my heart, not the one prescribed by the church.

    When I saw the end, I was devastated

    All kinds of camera shakes. Because it is a live-action adaptation, the plot lacks tension, and the actors' performances are natural and real.

Prayers for Bobby quotes

  • Mary Griffith: Homosexuality is a sin. Homosexuals are doomed to spend eternity in hell. If they wanted to change, they could be healed of their evil ways. If they would turn away from temptation, they could be normal again if only they would try and try harder if it doesn't work. These are all the things I said to my son Bobby when I found out he was gay. When he told me he was homosexual my world fell apart. I did everything I could to cure him of his sickness. Eight months ago my son jumped off a bridge and killed himself. I deeply regret my lack of knowledge about gay and lesbian people. I see that everything I was taught and told was bigotry and de-humanizing slander. If I had investigated beyond what I was told, if I had just listened to my son when he poured his heart out to me I would not be standing here today with you filled with regret. I believe that God was pleased with Bobby's kind and loving spirit. In God's eyes kindness and love are what it's all about. I didn't know that each time I echoed eternal damnation for gay people each time I referred to Bobby as sick and perverted and a danger to our children. His self esteem and sense of worth were being destroyed. And finally his spirit broke beyond repair. It was not God's will that Bobby climbed over the side of a freeway overpass and jumped directly into the path of an eighteen-wheel truck which killed him instantly. Bobby's death was the direct result of his parent's ignorance and fear of the word gay. He wanted to be a writer. His hopes and dreams should not have been taken from him but they were. There are children, like Bobby, sitting in your congregations. Unknown to you they will be listening as you echo "amen" and that will soon silence their prayers. Their prayers to God for understanding and acceptance and for your love but your hatred and fear and ignorance of the word gay, will silence those prayers. So, before you echo "amen" in your home and place of worship. Think. Think and remember a child is listening.

  • Mary Griffith: I won't have a gay son.

    Bobby Griffith: Then mom, you don't have a son.

    Mary Griffith: Fine.
