No, I am not a homosexual. If I were a homosexual, I would hope I would have the courage to say so. Whats cruel is that you are forcing me to say I am not a homosexual. This means you are putting homosexuals down. I dont want to do that. – Ed Koch

Christianity is not the faith of the complacent, the comfortable or of the timid. It demands and creates heroic souls like Wesley, Wilberforce, Bonhoeffer, John Paul the Second, and Billy Graham.
