"And I tell you that your righteousness – our righteousness – will prevail. Day by day, year by year, generation by generation."

"it’s not about being the same. It’s not even about believing in the same things; it’s about the values we all share."

These lines are from a sermon given by a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago at my church (as some of you know, we're UUs). He and his same-sex partner have a son in Sunday school with one of my daughters. The transcript is here: Unitarian Pride - Rev. Sam Trumbore - timesunion.com - Albany NY. I thought some might be interested in reading it, as I was reminded of it by this conversation. It deals with hate, and religion, and hope, all at the same time
