Sorry that turned into such a ramble. I hope what I said makes sense and I apologize if I have said anything that offended or, more importantly, hurt you. That was not my intention. And like I said, I realize that I am a complete stranger, and so I don't expect you to answer me. All the same, I would appreciate if you reply saying something to the effect of not wanting to answer - otherwise, I know I'll be anxiously checking back here every hour! Thanks. And thank you for your candid reply to the other guest - I appreciate any opportunity to expand my perspective. -Erin

lurkyfox, I realize this is very personal and I'm a total stranger. May I ask you something more about that? (Also, I'm not the same as the first guest - felt I should clarify.) A bit of context - I am a Christian and could accurately be described as bisexual, although I don't identify with that. I personally have chosen to ignore my feelings of same sex attraction, because my faith is more important to me and I believe that the Bible makes it clear that I should not be in a same-sex relationship. However, I see that as my personal choice, and I am not in any way trying to say that you should choose what I chose. When my Christian friends say that they accept me but believe I shouldn't act on those feelings, I understand that they say that out of love for me - but if I saw bisexuality as part of my identity, I'm not sure if I could see it that way. My question is, do you think people who share my beliefs can still make you feel loved rather than depressed and guilty? -Erin

If the dog bit an infant without provocation - meaning it wasn't aggressive or affected by prior abuse - then the owners probably wouldn't mistreat it extensively, they'd get rid of it right away even if they hurt it a bit. I think it takes more than a hit or two to make a dog unable to be with people
