It is a Christian duty to talk about these things, so your accusation of hatred and prejudice is invalid. I am simply telling you the Biblical view point, and if you disagree, it does not mean I hate you, it only means you choose to disagree. Approving sin and wickedness around you is a sin in itself. Love the sinner, hate the sin.
Love the sinner, hate the sin is Gandhi, not Jesus.

And it's a ridiculous cliche. Why is love so lacking among Conservative Christians, especially on issues like the OP?

Please show me where Jesus sat down with a lesbian couple, and chastised them for their love.

I'll wait...

That's what you get for putting an Army man in charge of the Navy. Churchill rarely let go of a chance to needle the Senior Service a bit.

I am expecting a few 'BAWW THINK OF THE CHILDREN' complaints though.
If it had been two guys swapping spit on the dock they definitely would not have gotten applause.

+10 for being attractive.


To bad most lesbians are the opposite, staged kiss maybe ?? I could see a pro gay group paying them to do it.

It is not a cliche, it is i the message of Christ. Both loving your neighbor, and shunning sin are repeated dozens of times in the Bible. Mamatha Gandhi joined both in six words: love the sinner, hate the sin. It is exactly what Jesus taught.

When did I claim that Jesus sat down with lesbians? He came here to save the sinners, did He not? Every man and woman is a sinner until they allow Christ to save them, so he did indeed come here for the sinner. He loves them, as stated in John 3:16 which summs up His mission and the motivation for the mission.

It was staged but by the Navy,
Quote:
Naval Petty Officer Second Class Marissa Gaeta bought 50 raffle tickets so she could win the Navy’s lottery and be the first person off the ship to kiss their loved one at the dock. Once on land, Marissa Gaeta swooped up her girlfriend, Petty Officer Third Class Citlalic Snell, a smooch.

Those killers weren't resident Virginians, and they also killed, or claimed to have killed, in Maryland, California, Florida, Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, and Alabama.

I am surprised they'd allow an Officer Second Class to have a relationship with Officer Third Class. There is definetly a problem with that.

not likely, as they are not assigned to the same ship...try again.
