If you take this life to be simply what old religious folks pretend (I mean the effete, gone to seed in a drought, mere human galls stung by the devil once), then all your joy and serenity is reduced to grinning and bearing it.

It may make your back ache occasionally, but you will have the satisfaction of hanging it or twirling it to suit yourself. Henry David Thoreau

Look at the Metropolitan Community Church today, the gay church, almost accepted into the World Council of Churches. Almost, the vote was against them.
