You could also say that for one reason or another, many of this country's 
best puppeteers also happen to be, or have been, fundamentalist 
Christians, right? If not, then it appears you're implying that MOST of 
this country's best puppeteers also happen to be, or have been, 
homosexual. If that's the case, I'd be interested in seeing the study 
that supports that statement.

>Gay and Lesbian artists need our respect, appreciation and solidarity.

Because they're gay and lesbian??? I don't think so. In the field of 
puppetry you can gain my respect, appreciation and solidarity by doing 
cool puppetry, not because of who you have sex with.
