That is not fair. It is fair for them to question my actions and how they pertain to my faith, it is not fair for them to attack me for trying to be supportive of everybody like Jesus was.

I am for people having equality. I should not have more rights than anybody because of their sexual orientation, or the color of their skin. We should all have equal rights and opportunities.
I'm pretty well versed in how Christians feel about homosexuality, but the bolded part really stood out for me. You wouldn't feel comfortable driving a bus that promotes equality?! Like, equality for racial minorities and equality for women, that kind of thing? Mostly because of how your Christian friends would perceive your support of equality? wow.
