<DIV>I agree that homosexuality is part of Hashem's plan, along with all other
physical, emotional and mental handicaps and conditions that cause physical and
emotional suffering or that cause people not to be able to marry and
reproduce. Not for a moment would I presume to guess the reasons
behind His plans, but I trust that He has reasons, and that every person He
created, even those who face the most difficult challenges, has a unique,
Divinely ordained purpose and mission in this world.</DIV>
