"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner
Come in! Come in!
"If you are a dreamer, come in. If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, a Hope-er, a Pray-er, a Magic Bean buyer; if you're a pretender, come sit by my fire. For we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in!" -- Shel Silverstein

Damn.
The Dude is so right, so, so right.
Doing the same thing with women and homosexuals...it's all about perception. Perception that somehow, someway, I'm really a have...not a have not.
Might be better to just perceive ourselves as human, and all in the same boat.
Thanks Elizabeth. That was excellent. I may steal and attribute.
