Hi Bill,
That just isn't what X said.
You all are trying so hard to "catch" her and you're going to make yourselves look petty, and I think it's a stupid game. BUt if you insist, then here's X's actual quote from an earlier post-

And if my child WAS gay I would encourage them to find the most loving and stable way to pursue that.
She did NOT say
but not encourage them to be gay if they only had homosexual urges.

As for the use of the term encourage, what she says makes sense to me. ONe does not encourage children to become homosexuals, which was the implication of Master's post, because there is not a real choice available. But if your child says he is bi- then there IS a certain choice available and a parent would be remiss not to talk over the pros and cons of the decision, and probably encourage the straight lifestyle choice.
