I was reminded of Mark Thompson's insight that "Gay men and lesbians possess the ability to lead society's next phase of cultural revolution — liberation of the soul — if only they realize that potential." Gay men, so often "feminized" by the dominant culture, and lesbians, denigrated as "witches" by many, are among the messengers of the awakening anima of creation.
