OUR BELIEFS: We believe that everyone is entitled to private sexual behavior, between consenting adults. We also believe that a straight spouse has the right to know of their gay or bisexual partners sexual orientation. We believe that it is the right of every individual to be informed truthfully, so they can adequately protect themselves, or make other determinations pertaining to their ability or inability to function, in a relationship with an unfaithful, gay spouse.
We also believe that it is not our place to judge, but rather to encourage, enlighten and support, those who reach out to us in need of support.
We sincerely believe that the teachings of the bible are true, and should not be ignored, and that each individual is responsible, and accountable to a higher power for their actions.
