While I certainly don&#8217;t consider myself focused on gay issues much at all, other than for general reference, I have been making a whole heck of a lot of posts regarding the gay vs. ex-gay issue, and concerning the Christian Right&#8217;s anti-gay prohibitionist agenda.  So, what is going on inside of me that causes so much attention and effort being put into this.  I&#8217;ve been thinking and reading about this stuff for years, but not much else, aside from the personal herculean effort in reconciling my Christian faith and my orientation.  I have a stake in this, of course, but I think it revolves more around being Christian than being gay.  I am always and foremost a follower of Jesus Christ; being gay is just a characteristic (being, not behavior!).
