In reply to the discussion: Kirk Cameron Says 'Fornicators And Adulterers' Bigger Problem Than Gay Marriage. USA! USA! USA! USA! [View all]dballance
(5,756 posts)4. Although I DO think he's a washed-up, religious nutbag....
He's finally making something akin to sense. He's actually correct to tell his followers and many others that they should pay attention to correcting their own shortcomings and sins rather then spend so much time on other people's. He must have read one of the versions of Matthew 7:3 which says, in the KJV:
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Or in more modern translations something like:
And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own?
Pretty clear instruction to mind one's own house before speaking ill of and judging another's.

He makes a good point. Gay bashing "Christians" don't like talking about Fornication...
