“In so many ways, I think the hope of the world is in the Internet and in homosexuality. The Internet because we have available to us a way of communicating we have never had before. And homosexuality. Gay Arabs, Gay Jews — even some Hassids, Gay Native Americans, Gay African Americans, Gay Catholics — what binds us all is not our heritage or the color of our skin, or the god we pray to. What binds us is love, compassion, and understanding. The established forms of relationship and worship don’t apply to us. We are all the outcasts of our societies. So the Gay Catholic looks to the Gay Arab, and what she sees is what is familiar, not what is different.” - tom spanbauer
