Reply #10: Why why don't

[Abbalon]

you have a parade like those that are held by Southern Baptist to chastise the sin of homosexuality.

I have often wondered why other sins besides homosexuality were never berated on the same level.

Plain old adultery must be happening at a greater rate.

Demtodend, what a contempable thing to say. Do you think we are so stupid as to bite at so flimsy an analogy?

"The Bible covers adultery and homosexuality separately. When we excuse adultery because of homosexuality I fear we are taking liberties with His Word".

Why my good dem2dend have I never seen adultery marched against by fundies? They don't mind some sins. They don't attack a sin they may be party too. No parades condeming alcoholics in 90 years. That one went over real well too.

The demonization of gays or the elevation of a layman to preist seem to be the theme of your problems with a gay minister. By taking two issues you say are separate and combining the two, you have interposed your spin in an effort to condemn homosexuality.

It is the lack of Christian uproar over that particular sin coupled with their very vocal and dangerous uproar over homosexuality that makes me see more in your statements.

Can you in all honesty tell us why the good bishop divorced his wife? Or if he is less than a stellar dad to this kids.

Can you really give us an insight into how his wife feels about him or the divorce?

You have assumed way to much for this openminded Liberal. I have rubbed elbows with to many nazis to be blind to even subtle spin.

If I am in any way out of line. I beg up just show me your case to conclude adultery on the part of the Good Bishop.Lifting the good word can be a noble exercise in personal freedom. It can be quite the opposite too.

My church ws once split asunder by sin chasers. My mother and father separated for three months before getting back together. Why would the church think it their buisness to pass judgement on a personal matter?
