Why are people continuing to cover for Bristol Palin? Is it because she’s a Palin? Wrong is wrong. Fornication is no better than adultery or homosexuality, and she’s the one who first adopted a defiant tone, i.e. no lectures. Fine. I won’t lecture her because she’s not my daughter, but I’m not going to make light of her open, defiant support for sin.

Perhaps because some of us concede having engaged in the same sinful behavior at her age and later repented and were forgiven and married and raised our own children and, as years go by strive to be closer to God and to please Him.

Also, homosexuality is inherently gravely disordered behavior in ways that fornication between one man and one woman is not. Such fornication is, no doubt, gravely displeasing to God but a foreshadowing of just one thing that actual marriage may bring to one's life. If that sin leads promptly to a proper marriage in which the husband will love, cherish and nurture his wife's life before his own, and God's forgiveness is sought by all concerned, then, perhaps, we would regard the couple as ideal exemplars thereafter.

Are the following words familiar? "...Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us..."

No, it is because this is no one else's business and it is a complete non-issue.

Wrong is wrong. Fornication is no better than adultery or homosexuality,

No, that is only your opinion. Bristol's children will not pick you pocket via welfare programs nor contribute to the crime epidemic, so there is no "wrong" here.

and she’s the one who first adopted a defiant tone, i.e. no lectures

Good for her. No one's opinion matters but her's and the baby's father.

Fornication is no better than.... homosexuality...

So would you be opposed to fornicators getting married?

Or would you think that homosexuals should "make it legal" and get married?

Fornication is a sin.

The bible describes homosexuality as an "abomination.".

Obviously they are not in the same league.
