Homosexuality was mentioned in my school exactly once: as a method of AIDS transmission. 

Yeah, that's how it was at my school too. The teacher said that gays are unhealthy because "poop chutes weren't meant to be used that way."

Apparently that doesn't apply to anal sex between heterosexuals.

Well, I got a lot of crap from students because I was in a Transparent Closet, but surprisingly teachers were very good about their education in Health class. For a far-right town the Health curriculum was fairly centrist: We were taught everything about STDs, how they're spread, contraceptives, abortion, and all the other stuff that old white men say is destroying society today... but they also taught that abstinence really was the best route. All in all, a fair compromise, I think.

In fairness, abstinence is the only way to be 100% certain of not getting an STD or pregnant. Unless God takes a fancy to you, then all bets are off.

Of course, teaching abstinence only is a lot like teaching drivers ED without mentioning seat belts or defensive driving techniques. First good sized bump in the road and shit is liable to get ugly.

Well, that's not entirely true. All you need is to be jabbed by an infected needle and you can get an STD. Worst thing is, you actually do get sick freaks who want nothing more than to infect random people, normally with HIV.
Abstinence, along with responsibility when it comes to drugs, is the best you can do to prevent infection, its no 100% sure, but about as good as you can get.

Personal story, as a transsexual, I get plenty of trouble from my mother, a super fundie. Things have calmed down and now she just completely ignores the issue as though its some kind of phase. Of course, in her denial she refuses to refer to me as a she or use my new name. Also I get no help form her at all, in what is extremely difficult and costly. I also lost my job before as a result and have been denied employment at other companies as well. It is really a part of the problem of living in a country that is officially christian and where there is a culture of raping lesbians to turn the strait.

The good news is, that despite my mother blocking me at every opportunity, this year look to be the one where I finally finish up, and I have a great job at a very accepting company. Of course, I also have a really amazingly accepting boyfriend. (yes now I am just bragging)

Nothing enhances the credibility of a discussion like the phrase “poop chute.” :P

Misleading. When you measure the effectiveness of a birth control method, you also have to take into account the percentage of times people fail to use it. People who decide to be abstinent fuck a lot more often than people who decide to use condoms forget to put them on.

If you're teaching them in isolation, yes.  However, if you teach both condom-use and abstinence (as in Eniliad's school), the education only fails if they bone and forget to put on a condom.  There's nothing wrong with teaching abstinence if you're also showing them other options if they do go a-boning.

That's just it.  I didn't even know what homosexuality WAS and had to ask my mother.*  The mini-sermon for that week (done by the principal, and occasionally by the pastor of the church that ran the school) was AIDS.  Two methods of transmission were mentioned: homosexuality and needle-sharing.  The lesson I took from it was that AIDS was punishment for sin (because no other methods of transmission were mentioned), and that nobody in our school would ever have to worry about getting it because we were Good Christians.

Okay, I need to get something out of my system. I'm sorry if this ends up an incoherent mess but I'm doing myself no favors letting this gnaw quietly on my brain. Whenever I start recovering from a virus, the remnant starts fucking with my emotions. Right now, things that barely bother me most days are making me want to cry, and this is why:

These people HATE us. HATE HATE HATE us. They would love nothing more than to see us dead, or "converted" from who we are to a personality type more in line with who they are. They completely pass over any good deeds we do and dismiss it as the work of a depraved Satan-worshiper who is hellbound regardless of their deeds. They spread LIES about how we will die sooner, how we will catch deadly diseases and die from it, and they LAUGH at us for it, even though it's patently not true. Even people who care about us don't seem to give enough of a shit to change the laws on the books, to make things more fair to us. As far as I know, I'm only going to live once, and these people are doing their damndest to ruin it for me, and everyone like me.

And then they're going to sit there and congratulate each other on how much suffering was brought on us, how they tortured us and made us miserable. They will celebrate every gay person they brainwash into hating themselves enough to convert, and pretend to be straight, being miserable but not knowing why. They're going to cheer whenever a depressed gay person commits suicide because of exactly this reason, and then they'll turn the suicide into a weapon, another talking point as to why homosexuality is wrong. And that's all we're worth to them.

And in the end, all I can do is ask... why?

What did we do to you?

And that's a rhetorical question... I know what they'll answer already. Their barbed words a poison to my very being. I know what they'll say, and even though nobody's around to say it, I can hear it anyway.

Someone just... make them go away. Please. Just make them leave us alone and let me live our life in peace...

Had a conversation with my mom yesterday. She was trying to tell me what the Bible says about homosexuality. I told her it doesn't mean what you think it means, and she came back with, "Well, how many times have you read the Bible?" As if reading it more makes you understand it better.

This is another one of their fucked up double edged swords that make Christians like me look bad. If they ask you that and you tell them only once or twice they tell you that you really need to study it.

If you tell them you've read it multiple times and can even explain concepts like sheol to them then God is going to punish you even more harshly because you should have known better.
Matthew 22:39 "And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." God's own "don't be a dick" rule.

Lithp and Vene really need to have some kind of confusing sexual encounter where Vene spends the entire session lovingly insulting Lithp's technique, then cums on his face, ruffles his hair, says, "You're all right, kid!", and then punches him in the nuts.

I have a very simple answer to people who oppose gay marriage:  How would you like it if someone told you, "I'm going to do everything in my power to make your life miserable and prevent you from marrying the person you love because my religion says your relationship is a sin"?  If someone said that to me, I'd tell them to go fuck themselves, and I wouldn't expect gays to reply any differently.
