Brokeback Mountain

This reading was about two guys who would meet up during the summer to look after sheep. During this time Jack and Ennis become very close to each other. After being together for a long period of time they soon became intimate and continued to have this intimate relationship. As the end of the summer approached they went their separate ways. The two both got married and had children.

Four years later the two reunited and embraced each other with love as they kissed and caressed one another. This was very suspicious for Ennis wife as she watched their behavior. Even though the two finally reunited they were still fighting to see each other because of the treatment they would face from others in society. One day Ennis comes to finds out that Jack had been killed in a MVA and was cremated. This was extremely depressing /heartbreaking. Ennis went to Jacks parents to get his ashes, so that he could spread them across Brokeback mountain, and they would not let him have them. Ennis discovers that Jacks was not involved a "accident" his suspense was that he was murdered for being a homosexual.

It sad that these individuals cannot live a peaceful open life in this world, but at the same time it's just not seen as a norm in society and most important of all it's an abomination against Christ!
