[Durham INC] 'Anti-Gay' is offensive language

[Matt Dudek]

I am not gay (although I am generally very happy).

The Church can decide whatever it wants about marriage.

The State should have no part in defining a religious institution.

Anyone can be offended about anything. (I find neon pink an offensive color)
