What are Christians known for? Outsiders think our moralizing, our condemnations, and our attempts to draw boundaries around everything. Even if these standards are accurate and biblical, they seem to be all we have to offer. And our lives are a poor advertisement for the standards.

What I love about being queer is... Everything. I like that it makes me different, and I like that it makes people uncomfortable sometimes.
