The Political Problem of Evil

Exceptionally well written article! The Priest's comment really highlights truth- hate the sin, love the sinner.

Quote:
The Political Problem of Evil

The gay movement will never make peace with us until we disown the most important message of Christ. Christ says we must not live in the urges and ambitions of this world, but must live according to his pure vision of love. God gave up Christ to be sacrificed so that we would all be freed from the bondage of sin. There is no way to reconcile this doctrine with the gay lobby's insistence that they can define themselves according to fleshly desires of this world and buy immortality by purchasing children. Make peace with the gay lobby, and we lose God, condemning ourselves to an eternity without the greatest love of all.

"The hate you encounter," the priest told me, "is the cry of pain from people who are hurting, because they are living in such darkness."

If you hate homosexuality then you hate the queer. In the mind of the homosexual there is no seperating the two. It is his or her identity.

You got that right - "in the mind of the homosexual". That is very true and very true for anyone who doesn't like their sin exposed.

Again, the Priest makes the point that can only be made from a heart of compassion - "The hate you encounter," the priest told me, "is the cry of pain from people who are hurting, because they are living in such darkness."

You missed the point, Houston, and I think you missed it because you wanted to. You are a lot sharper than that.

No, presson. I get the point. I had an encounter with one that was very hateful toward me because I do not allow sexuality and christianity to merge, choosing the latter.

John 3:19 "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."

I know you are not surprised by the reaction. There will be many times when being very careful to show compassion, we will still be hated of all men for His name's sake.
