I understand your point. Although I believe that drinking like anything in excess is bad, I do not prescribe to the opinion that some have that Jesus made grape juice (even though I have not done an . In fact, some of the apostles spoke of its benefits by discussing how it was good for calming an upset stomach. It should be noted however, that there are some people who should obstain from it all together, like pastors and deacons, for example. So Jesus made wine. If people set their standard of conduct high enough to not drink at all, good for them. As far as homosexuality/lesbianism, the Bible is extremely clear, it is an obimination...Leviticus 20:13. And Jesus did not turn a hetero into a homosexual.

As far as who makes the judgement, in the end it is the self will of the individual. If I choose not to drink, so be it. If I choose to be hetero, so be it. Should I be able to force you to do either, or to pay for my consequences? I think not.

This comes down to what is a society going to cling to and what it is going to condemn. Should we be accomidate all the wishes of the homosexual? We don't the drunk! So if folks want to engage in this behavior, so be it. But don't make the rest of society (the better than 95%) do out of the way to make the 5% feel warm and fuzzy.....
