Then Jewish delis and halal markets have to cater to Christians...and vice-versa.

Maybe this man and his butt buddies could forgo their perverted, unsafe sexual activities.

Unfortunately, so many don’t have a clue about what the Bible says. That’s how liberals and gay activists mislead so many people.

The Devil can quote scripture, too.

Who is Frank Bruni and why should I care what he has to say about the Bible?

I can read. Apparently, he can’t.

Gotta list the Catholic Church, too, with the Troglodyte Evangelicals on the subject of male-female complementarity:

He doesn’t even need to have faith. He knows.

We were told he would deceive many. He is doing just that.

It should have always been a two pronged attack out of the gate.

A sin AND traditional marriage should have been promoted as an imperative for Western civilization survival.

Too much energy and time dwelling on the former while ignoring the latter.

One of the idiots on our local morning talk radio show said that the Bible, specifically Lev 18, is hate speech. He is supposedly a member of a large Methodist Church.

He assumes that only people who have been “indoctrinated” by religion are opposed to homosexuality. Even some who don’t consider it a sin believe it to be perverted and just wrong.

If I discovered one of my friends was cheating on his wife and I broke off my friendship with him because of his adultery, that would be my choice. Alternatively, I could choose to continue our friendship under the rule of “hate the sin, but love the sinner” - again, my personal choice. Additionally, if I refused to do business with pornographers, such as refusing them advertising space on my website, that, too, would be my personal choice on moral grounds. If I personally believe homosexuality is a sin and refused friendship or business to someone who is an active homosexual, should I not also be protected in doing so?

The pro-gay lobby in this country does not want mere tolerance of their lifestyle, which I believe they know is immoral and sinful -but deep, deep down inside where they don’t have to deal with it head on. They want acceptance of the sin as normal, which I refuse to grant. Christians should not speak with antipathy toward homosexuals, but with compassion and sympathy for their inner struggle.

Here is the question:

Are secular authorities no longer allowing religions to live by their holy books?

This is the ONLY question the media should be discussing right now.

Who is Frank Bruni? I’ve never heard of him.

Whoever he is, he is wrong, by the way.

....Then the God of the Holy Bible COMMANDS the man in question to REPENT!

Let’s see Bruni take on the Koran and its view of homosexuality next.
