There are some verses that people like the bishop interpret as prohibiting *acting* on those attractions.

Personally, I think people should be free to love whomever they please as long as both are adults capable of giving consent.

I don't want to force chuches or religious people to accept my views on sexuality. But their rights end where my rights begin.
