The movie Philadelphia
A movie with Tom Hanks portraying a homosexual lawyer with HIV during the AIDS epidemic. His colleagues wrongfully fire him because of his condition. Has anyone seen this film ?

yeah, and I have to say that it kind of affected the way I viewed AIDS and homosexuals
I really developed a sympathy for his character.
It was one of the things that made me realize that diseases are opportunistic. they don't care who they infect -they are just looking for a receptive way to enter a living body - they don't care if it's a dog or cat. People are fine - they are just trying to survive even if they kill the host.
at this point in my life I don't care who you get naked with - it's none of my business unless I'm looking for someone to get naked with.

@Pretzel This is decidedly an encouraging comment and one I can relate to.
Seems life is one long if-then chart.
If Issue A disagrees with what I thought I knew, then what do I do? Think, listen to others and to my own heart and mind and then either change what I thought I knew or stand fast.
Sometimes on examination, being wrong seems obvious. Sometimes it makes your head hurt.
Either way, it's living!
