How can I say this without attacking you? Just hear me out...
But this is a typical attitude. Brow beat everyone else who isn't doing a ministry called "Hookers for Jesus," (though I personally have discipled and also am aware of many churches with people on their pew that lived such lifestyles) and on that beating proclaim these guys are saints and heroes and it doesn't matter how they do it, because "no one else is doing anything." So for everything Apostolic (or heterosexual couples, or whatever else has been used with this logic) deserve a spanking for, everyone else gets a free pass, an A for Effort if you will, just for doing something. They can't be misguided.
I also admire their "guts" and think their passion is good. I'm not saying the whole idea is shameful. I think we can be a bit more tasteful. Be a city on that's set on a hill, instead of trying our hardest to associate with their sin, associate with their hope. The social part of what they are doing is grand.
You are my brothers and sisters, and I'm not angry with the opinions here. I'm just sad. I'm shocked that I'm a minority voice on this. Or perhaps others don't even bother getting into such a discussion.
