Rand503 mentions that masburbation is condemed in the Bible.. I cannot find any reference to masburbation in the Bible - The closest is masturbation, to which there is very little reference and like all Scripture should be read in context. Seeing that Rand503 has some interest in what the Bible says, I would recommend that s/he really study it and maybe find things which will really change her/his life.
When we start changing definitions to suit ourselves we are opening Pandora's Box! In South Africa Zuma, who was accused of rape, has just married his fourth concurrent wife, showers to wash off the risk of AIDS, is awaiting trial for corruption, fraud, taking bribes etc. wants to be the next president of the country, is trying to force changes in the justice and judicial system so that he wont be convicted. If he succeeds he wil be putting the country on the slide to the whirlpool!

Grow your own tree, keep it in a pot, bring it inside for Christmas and keep it outside for the rest of the year. That would be the best contribution to the Global Warming battle. When it gets too big plant it somewhere and start again

Tutu need have no fear that god is homophobic. "the word / suffix, phobia stems from the greek word for fear - anacraphobia - fear of spiders etc- God certainly does not fear what is like Him - homo-, nor homosexuals, nor anything. And for the record, I don't know any Christians who fear homosexuals.
