Unsure how to respond to this gay-related email sent to me by a devout christian girl

Maybe.

in that case, the best response would be to very politely say...

"I really don't appreciate you sending me links to homophobic hate literature, especially such scientifically disproven, paranoid and delusional theories. I'm not sure why you felt that I personally should read this but next time, resist the temptation to send that to me. It's not wanted and I feel inappropriate for our polite but professional relationship."

Very appropriate.
 
hahaha

the version i had been thinking of:

i knew you were christian. i didnt know you were that kind of christian.
your mail is offensive and inappropriate. i expect you to stay out of my life from now on. dont answer to this mail, or contact me in any other way.

Nah... GaGaloo, this is a passive-aggressive attempt for some bitch to pass judgement on you before you've even opened up. You haven't heard from her in months and now she sends you this?

Don't be polite. Tell her to go fuck herself and hit "delete".

Very nicely worded! :=D:
 
When I saw that the first link was from conservapedia, I decided not to give it any of my time...
 
It's stuff like this which caused me to make a remark to a friend earlier this week:

"There are a lot of times that I wish I were CAPABLE of being an atheist, because I resent sharing my beliefs with those scum who use their religion and their God as a weapon of hatred."

It's as though God, rather than being one of unconditional Love, is instead being worshipped as the most malevolent and spiteful being ever to exist.
 
Maybe you should return the favor and send her some links to some articles that disproved that nonsense she has on facebook.

She worked with me on a university group assignment and I haven't spoken too her in months until she just emails me this out of the blue.

The email basically just says she thinks I should read this Facebook article:

http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=74797006587

It starts off nice but then discuses how research indicates people are NOT born gay, that gay relationships are unstable and have health risks, etc...

I'm really offended by this and I don't know why she sent it to me. I never even explicitly told her I was gay (we did discuss the topic, though).

How should I respond to this?

Thanks.

Most people who send around stuff like this aren't rational so you might take a more personal approach. The best you could do is to question and doubt the material by pointing out a claim or two that you know is not personally true to you. "I don't engage in bareback orgies with underage children, so Link X seems really wrong."

Another approach is to insult her and tell her that if she doesn't like Western freedoms (like the right to privacy or consensual activities) then she should move to Iran or North Korea.

As far as specifics, I've always hated the "born gay" argument that the gay rights movement has pushed. It was a way to argue against those who claimed gays needed to recruit youngsters but it's a double-edged sword in that it fails to focus on the idea that rights are unconditional, ie. you don't have to be born a certain way to be free to do x, y, z.
 
Since we're all different, what works for me might not work for you.

There's something to be said for most of the posts here. However, I would not even respond to her last communication for the following reasons:

1. You are not going to change her.
2. She is not going to change you.

If she e-mails you again, I would just tell her that you are not interested in discussing the issue. I have a feeling that if you engage her in any way, she will not quit. Good luck! ..|

P.S. That doesn't mean that you don't think that her MO is a load of crap.

Her email is harassment. She (and you) may not see it that way, but it most certainly is harassment. Sounds like she's only a classmate, and you have no reason for a relationship with this chick besides class. If that's true, my response would be something like:

This has nothing to do with our classwork. I consider it to be harassment. Do not send me any more such material.

Regards, hotdog

And I wouldn't respond to any other email from her that doesn't have to do with class. If she persists in sending you harassing emails, then take up the matter with the university authorities. :)
 
there's no point in being offended, or saying mean aggressive things to this naive christian girl.
the fact that she sent you the email, means she probably was worrying about you (on some warped level).

why not just send her a brief email letting her know you are happy to be gay? that's all she needs to know.
 
You should respond, and don't mince words.

I did not read the entire post on Facebook but it was the usual "love the sinner, hate the sin" BS.

I love the strategies of these religious types. Gotta give them credit. Some do this "soft" messaging, "We LOVE you, please change" and then others in their pack say "Gays will pay for their sins and burn in hell."

All the angles are covered.

Find a good article to send her in return. Acknowledge that you read the post she sent, and then ask her, because she has shown an interest in your well-being, to read what you've sent her.

Or you could just tell her to fuck off and delete her, but why not send her into a complete frenzy with an article that gay people are actually normal human beings.

Oh, and tell her you will pray for her.
 
Tell her your life is not any of her business and to keep her religion to her self and fuck off
