...that you are planning on doing that. Hi Mark, I remember when you where considering coming out to your Pastor. Although that went very well for you, I think this is a little different kind of thing. BUT...if it mean's that you have finally found a Y.F., oh man, now THAT is cool! Anyway, my opinion on this is pretty simple, I think. Just like any other person or person's, you should think, think, and think a lot more about everything that could possably happen as a result; the good, bad, AND the ugly. I'm sure most of us are quite aware of the kind of bad publicity B.L.'s have always gotten in the news, on t.v.,...etc. At any rate, it is a pretty risky proposition at best. About our moral obligation... I believe we probably have a greater moral obligation in regards to the way we behave with and around the boy. While it is true that, because we are Christian, we feel obligated to the truth...and rightly so, isn't it also true that sometimes the unguarded truth can hurt more than heal? Anyway, that's something to think about. Say, Mark, I am currently writing something that I think you might really like. Something you might like to put in Paraklesis, perhaps a chapter at a time. I am writing fiction! It might turn out to be a novel, or perhaps a short story, but I am already on the second chapter. It is a story about a teen boylover. I will send you the first 3 chapters as soon as I'm finnished with them, ok? Take Care Brother.... Love In Christ Jesus, Chris |
