I hear there are gay Christians seems they are few and far between, I didn't say one could not be gay and Christian, neither has God, we all start from some where.

Did you know some gays think Christians are icky......two way street can be paved with hate now can't it?
Wow, well I am gay and minister to a large church. I say something nice about God every week when I preach, plus whenever I get the chance. The denomination I am with is quite large and I know of other gay/lesbian/transgender minister's and we all have nice things to say about God... though to be honest we all do criticise hypocritical Christian's, you know the ones that hate, exclude etc. all in the name of Jesus.

I don't think that makes us anti-Christian, rather anti-hypocrite.

Nah, it's people who really have no business spreading their nonsense who have found an outlet to pollute the minds of people in this nation on a large scale. You can blame the internet for giving a voice that has the potential to reach everyone to even the most idiotic moron in this country.

In the past, these people existed on the fringe of society - where they belong - and nobody gave a hoot. Now you are exposed to their mindless drivel every single day.

And that is far more harmful than any "gay in government" could ever be as a result of simply being gay.

Okay, but you didn't need to let me or anyone else know of your beliefs, IMO, those are personal and private.

What gives a charitable organization the right to tell someone in need that they must believe in God before assistance can be administered? That's why I washed my hands w/ the army years and years ago, that, along with their anti gay stance was their nail in the coffin with me.

In fact, when we needed assistance, my spouses Catholic church gave us assistance which was unconditional.

I thought the Left wasn't Godless? I don't need to prove it to you.

But you must ask His forgiveness. You do that by asking Christ in your life and confessing your sins before Him.

They don't have that right, if that's what they are doing. That isn't Christ like. Beliefe must come from the heart. It is not something you can force on someone. That would not be genuine Faith anyway.

God must change your heart. Then when He does, you will know, and you then ask him into your life and are saved.

That is the way it should be done.

I'm a lesbian and don't think Christians are icky. The only time I bring up religion in regards to homosexuality is when some Christians are fighting to prevent the secular laws of this country from treating me equally because of their personal religious beliefs.

Keep YOUR religious beliefs in your own life and out of mine, and I have no issue with you or your beliefs.
