""I have never come across anyone who has genuine hatred of homosexuals...maybe I've led a sheltered life.""

If that statement is true Ake, it would explain a lot.

I know the internet has opened up the world, but I never thought I would be able to communicate with an alien on some very distant planet (which planet, by the way Ake?).

A short enquiry at your local police station, or at the A&E at the local hospital, should give you a clue as to the number of battered, broken, bodies appear regularly, having had an encounter with one of those gay bashers of whose existence you appear to be unaware.

I should have thought you would want to know them as they are doing their best to get rid of the "problem" for you.
