Just curious.
1) What are your personal thoughts about homosexuality
2) If you are religious, what does your religion have to say about homosexuality
3) If your views about homosexuality conflict with your religious views, why do they?
4) If your views about homosexuality don't conflict with your religious views, why don't they?
I'm interested in this because I know that Christians sit on both sides of the fence on this one, but I want to see what Muslims/Jews/Sikhs/and other religions have to say.
Thanks,
Nathanael

That's it! I did a search on my blog for "gay", "lesbian", "homosexual" and "homosexuality" and this is what turned up.
Going to the Gay Pride Parade with other Christians to demonstrate the love of God is a good idea. I could do that. But wearing a shirt that says "I am sorry" is not a good idea, from my point of view, because it gives people the idea that the Church and the Bible are wrong about homosexual acts being wrong. The institutional church (all denominations) are guilty of many crimes against God, man and nature. But the real Church (as I have been blogging a lot about lately) does not willingly commit such crimes. We sin, yes, and with other sinners, we acknowledge our sinfulness, but we do not willingly harm other humans because of their religious beliefs, their race, their sex, or their sexual behavior. If any of us personally do, then we must be brought to our senses, and repent. But we have nothing to say in the way of "I am sorry" for what the facade of institutional Christianity has committed or ommitted.
Good to see you again, brother. I hope you are well.
