Rabbit Temple for Gay Taoists was created by
I found this interesting (particularly from the perspective of an incidental Taoist who is gay and was born under the sign of the Rabbit) and thought it might be of interest to others.
As most of you probably know, Taoism has had a strange relationship (both historically and in modern times) with sexuality in general, and homosexuality in some Taoist sects is seen as a path to an unbalanced life of discontentment.

Wow that's beautiful...
I'm not completely one with the Tao yet. So, I'm really pissed off at these conservative Taoists and Christians... It's like they didn't even read the book. *sigh*
But, go Lu!

What I take from this is that Taiwan has the Wei-Ming 'Rabbit' Temple, but TOTJO does not have a temple.
Well, except for the online one, which is nice, I've spent plenty of time here.
If we all took the codes, creeds, and doctrines seriously and treated our bodies as temples that is better than any building.
