According to the Buddha, right speech is a statement that is timely, true, kind, helpful (connected to liberation), and spoken with a mind of good-will. Let us all try to observe this precept.
Now that I've reopened comments, the predictable anti-gay arguments are trickling in. This entertaining and factually accurate five-minute cartoon I discovered on YouTube answers three of the most common objections: "homosexuality is a choice", "it's not natural", and "gays can change". I'm a little sad that the adversary in this film is named "Christian" since many Christians also support gay rights, but I still give it two big pink thumbs up.
