Marvin, the resident guest audio blogger, "reviews" Sarah Silverman's Jesus is Magic and Brokeback Mountain. He also takes a swipe at, um responds to commenters. Enjoy, oh and leave your comments.
The other day I received the following e-mail from Susanne, a woman who found out her some years ago that her husband has same-sex attractions. I felt so moved by her words that I asked her permission to share them with you on the blog. I (recently) saw your Doin Time... and I was the one who asked about your wife during the discussion period that followed. I just read your thoughts on What About the Spouse ....and I can say, most women who find out their husbands are gay feel ALL of those things you wondered about....some in more degrees than others... When my husband was dragged out of the closet because of his irreverent, immoral, and amoral behavior that our, then, 14 and 16 year old sons had to find on our home computer, I went into the closet. I didn't know what to pray for.... Do I pray that this will go away? Do I pray that he could go back to the way things were in our family before we knew about him,? Do I pray that I could go back to the way things were? After all ,...

You make me laugh! Thank you for your honest commentary on the two movies profiled here. I've seen neither of them, but from what I've heard from so many others (gay and straight), you may be a little bit off in your assessment of the "gay cowboy" movie. Then again, it is your opinion and that's at least worth as much as mine.
I'm glad to hear you admit you aren't hetrosexual as I've questioned that since your first posting. I wonder if perhaps your confusion over your own sexuality didn't color your experience with the "gay cowboy" movie. Just my thought.
I'm sure you are an asset to the temple or tabernacle you currently attend, although I was slightly concerned when I heard your mentor's comments.
Have a blessed day!

When your "mentor" called you a "former fag" and you thought it was FUNNY? That makes me shudder. I love you, Marvin; you come through your blogs so honestly and clearly. You are a lovable man, and if you want to consider yourself 'ex-gay' -- I accept the labels people put on themselves, even if I see something quite different. But I want to tell you that Jesus loves you just the way you are, and if your mentor cannot help but insult you so cruelly, you should stay away from that man. I haven't seen the Silverman film, so I can't comment. I hope you keep blogging, dear Marvin!
God bless you Marvin!
