Maybe in your church it is. I'm glad I go to a church that doesn't preach that bigoted nonsense.
Your church doesn't believe what the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 6? And please don't compare this scripture from the new covenant to scripture from Leviticus that covers the old covenant..... 9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

There's a difference in showing Christ's love to homosexuals, and accepting their lifestyle as acceptable to God. You can do the former (and should) without doing the latter.

And maybe a good way of showing Christ's love is to allow them to participate in the Boy Scouts?

Not sure if serious, but if you are, I don't know why differentiating between being gay and transgender is so hard for some people. Two completely separate issues, although both should have 100% equal rights.

You try to reason with them, and then you realize they don't even know what they're talking about. You know guys, it wouldn't make you some liberal intellectual elitist to actually read up on some of this and make an informed decision.

oh, that reminds me, some of you claiming 1st amendment obviously have no idea what is stated or protected by that amendment. I would explain it, but I encourage you to "research" it yourself. That's a fancy word us libs use to mean "fancy book learnin'"

I really like all the definitive answers.

http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn6519
Italian geneticists may have explained how genes apparently linked to male homosexuality survive, despite gay men seldom having children. Their findings also undermine the theory of a single "gay gene".

http://www.livescience.com/2623-gays-dont-extinct.html
Homosexuality in males may be caused in part by genes that can increase fertility in females, according to a new study.

http://www.webmd.com/sex-relationships/news/20050128/is-there-gay-gene
The genes a man gets from his mother and father may play an important role in determining whether he is gay or not, according to a new study likely to reignite the "gay gene" debate.

http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn6612
There has been much debate over "gay genes". Now an intriguing study raises another possibility: in some cases, variations in the genetic program we inherit from our parents, rather than in the genes themselves, might determine sexual preference.

http://www.medpagetoday.com/OBGYN/Pregnancy/3641
Gay orientation may start in the womb for a boy who was preceded into the world by a band of biological big brothers, according to a researcher here.

Someone does not know how science works.

No. I go to the Episcopal Church, which this past year decided to have gay marriage in all dioceses (it used to be up to each bishop).

A few things:

To all you idiots saying that someone voicing their opinion doesn't make them an *******, you're right. It's the content of their opinion that makes them an *******.

This says it better than I did. I never said it wasn't stupid to say something like he did in a public forum, but that he had the right to say what he believed. I don't agree with the comments that he should be shunned by MSU for saying what he said and demanding an apology for saying what he believes on his own personal Twitter account. If he had said this during a MSU broadcast it would be way different.

I never said they shouldn't be allowed in. But here are some sin's I consider equal to homosexuality: habitual lying, stealing, drug abuse....

I'm not going to go that far.

However, to deny the sinfulness of homosexuality is to deny Biblical teaching on the matter. A church/denomination that does that is confused, at best, and has allowed shifts in cultural thought to shape doctrinal teachings.

There's a difference in showing Christ's love to homosexuals, and accepting their lifestyle as acceptable to God. You can do the former (and should) without doing the latter.
By Jove, i think he's got it!

I bet another good way to show Christ's love is to not call someone who believes

in their bible a bigoted *******.

Speaking of Matt, he had an ad in the Vicksburg Post today for a

pancake breakfast at a Baptist church. He is a Baptist preacher, of sorts, so what else could he tweet?

Referring to a type of love as wrong is dehumanizing. To dehumanize a certain group of people is to have a phobia of them, hence, homophobia. Just because the the word phobia means fear of doesn't mean that you have to literally be scared or openly hateful of something to be a phobe. If it has a negative effect on you in any way, such as making you uncomfortable, it is still a light phobia.
Actually, stating that something that someone does is a sin is humanizing. To sin is human nature. The only way we can keep from sining is through putting faith in Jesus as Lord of our lives to help us not sin. It will still be a struggle, but that's the only hope we have to not live by our fleshly desires. There is nothing more human than to sin.

So what father would want his straight son in in a troop with other little boys who were sexually attracted to him ? This is what would kill the boy scouts.

It is comical to watch people not involved with scouting cast opinions from the peanut gallery.

So science is only about theories and best guesses? Please do explain how some scientist saying that kids may be born gay is proof enough for you to give links to TheBigDAs question.

It's all about perspective.

Homosexuals should not be offended that christians call what they do "sinfull" - by their religion, that is perfectly true.

However, christians should understand that whether something is "sinfull" or not should only mean a damn thing in the context of a religious matter, for those that share that belief.

I applaud the man for standing up for what he believes in! I for one am sick of the catering to the extreme minority just to be cool and hip. Its is wrong, he called it out, I agree. I'm also sick of the homophobe connotation for the simple fact I don't want some homo leading my son in scouts if he ever chooses to do so. Call it what you will......I could care less

You shouldn't applaud people because just for standing up for something. History is full of people who have gone to great lengths to defend completely misguided and immoral causes.

Also, you can't say you're "sick of the homophobe connotation", and then say "Call it what you will... I could care less". Those two things mean the exact opposite.

and if you do care, don't say things like "I don't want some homo leading my son in scouts". Because its, you know, homophobic.

So we're all stupid for saying that the first amendment states we have free speech, just because we did not list the excluded aspects that do not apply to the first amendment and do not protect all forms of speech. Let me list them so you don't think we are all mentally challenged

Free Speech does not protect

Obscenity
Fighting Words
Defamation
Treason
Perjury
Child Pornography
Blackmail
Incitement to imminent lawless action
True Threats
Solicitations to commit crimes
and possibly plagarism

Show me where making a anti gay statement on your own Twitter account falls in those categories?

Yes.

In scientific terms, gravity is only a theory. Doesn't mean it's not the way things work.
