CAUSE 1
As I've said before, I am not much of a political person, in respect to politics that is, but I am a firm believer in fighting for different causes. 

For me, Gay rights are one of my two major causes.   Here is some great information concerning gay rights.  There are a few informative and useful links on this page.  If you are so inclined, check them out.
Gay rights.  Mmmmm....I think we should call it HUMAN RIGHTS.  Think about it.  We, as gays and lesbians, are not asking for "special" rights...like being able to run red lights or robbing banks.  We just want the same rights as everyone else.
