whoa, horse.

so, are you saying people should be against firefox because the author

i am not saying that 'lgbt' is ok, but, i do not judge any man or woman
who is same sex oriented. that is something that is best left to God.

if you do pass judgment on someone, other than as a juror, in a court
of law, then you are marking yourself for supreme judgment.
