Faggots are also small pieces of wood you ask as kindling for a fire and 
when I was a kid they used to have faggot services - no shit - where you 
would get up and tell how you got saved and then toss your faggot into 
the fire.  Really!  There was something very primal about telling a 
personal around a camp fire at night and throw the stick in the fire 
when you were done and see the sparks fly -- but we always could tell 
they city kids (such as me) from the rural kids because we kept laughing 
at the word "faggot service."
